The Charms are Coming, The Charms are Coming!!

Hi guys,

As promised heres an update on the bracelets :)
I've ordered allll the ones I need to get started :) and there are on the way as I type.
A few have a arrived already so I'm super excited to get them going. I've already had family and friends putting in there orders :)

The charms that have arrived so far are silver paws, elephants, tortoise, and fish, aswell as some red tiger print beads and some luminous ones that are very cool!
 

 
 
The luminous ones have to be put in sunlight for them to glow, but when they do, THEY ARE SO COOL! I'm so excited to get these going. I've got lots more stuff on the way, but a lot of it is coming from out of the country, so I'm hoping to have them all but about February half term! Once they are ready you guys will be one of the first to know :D
 
What do you think so far?

Merry Christmas To All!!

Hi guys!
Hope you all had a fab christmas :) I know I did :)

Thought I'd share some of my christmas nail art with you all.

The first one is a quick mani I did for my sister. She already had the pink polish on so I just painted over the top.
I painted white on the ring finger and limited edition barry m blue on the little finger and index finger and topped it with the barry m limited edition glitter (they were 3 for 2 in superdrug).
I added silver and pink glitter to the tips of the pink nails.
On the white nail I used different shades of blue pink and green to create little dots in the shape of a christmas tree :)
A quick cute christmas mani :)

The second I painted on my moms nails. I used a shimmery cream for the base coat. I used a red and green Models Own glitters for the tips.
On the ring finger I painted a christmas wreath. I used a dark green and then a slightly lighter shade on top to create the wreath. I then used a red shade to add the details and bow.
I used the same colours to create the two small wreaths on the thumb.

Hope you like them :)
And Merry Christmas!!

Twit Twoooohh

Hi guys :)
Thought I'd do a quick nail art post seen as how I've been quiet for a while :)

I have a minor obsession with owls at the minute. I loveeee them :) anything owl related distracts me, so what better opportunity for some nail art inspiration!

I used a nude vase colour and some gold glitter for the edges of my nails. On my ring finger I used nail art paints to paint the owl, starting with a dark brown then adding the details. I also painted a gold feather on the thumb nail :)

Let me know what you think!

Everyone Loves A Freebie!!

Who would say no to a free O.P.I nail varnish? Erm no one!

This is a quick post to share with you my knowledge or the world of freebies!

Merry Hill Westfield are currently running an offer where if you spend £70 or more on fashion you get a free O.P.I (while stocks last ;) )

Without hesitation I accepted the challenge and brought hoodies, leggings and shirts galore! All in preparation for Uni of course :p
(I plan on a haul post soon but I've been busy packing and what not.)

So with all my shopping bags weighing the boyfriend down :p I trotted over to the kiosk, grinning I might add, to retrieve my prize!
Granted there weren't many colour left but I picked out a nice pastel pink (sparrow me the drama). It's verrry nice :) I added Models Own Juicy Jules to my ring finger for a bit of sparkle :)

So if you have saved your pennies for that new bag, or those killer heels, or even some new winter warmers, noes the time to get them, and pick up a free O.P.I polish in the process :D

Last of The Summer Sun!

What about that sun huh?!
I love love love the sun, I could happily sit in it all day crisping up! And that's just what I did on Monday :) My childhood bestie (and conveniently next door neighbour) came round and we had our beach towels at the ready.
My trampoline, once an initial buy for fun exercise, now makes a great sun lounger :D So I had my no factor Hawaiian Tropic tanning oil (or 'the cooking oil' for short) smothered on my legs in a desperate attempt to obtain some colour.
I even invested in a paddling pool to cool off :P At £10 it was a total bargain!
Also it gives me an excuse to make the most of my sunglasses obsession :) I have obtained a fair few over this year :/ Accessorize had a great sale on a few weeks ago where i brought two pairs that were each £3 :) oopsie! But I loveeee them :)
I've been pretty busy this week again sorting out odds and ends for when I move out next week but I've tried to make the most of the sunshine.
Here's my mani for this week...I thought I'd try out the florals and stripes. I used the Models Own lilac and pink again (my two favourite colours). My white nail art pen has started to get a bit gloopy so I just used an old paint brush and the Models Own white nail varnish for the stripes. For the flowers I just blobbed on the colour in a wiggly circle (sorry for my shocking descriptive skills) and then I used a darker shade nail art pen to add the details.
Hope you like :)

Busy Busy Busy!

Hi guys,
I've been a busy bee this past week :) I had my last shift at work on Sunday which was sad :( I love my Sunday people, it's just the three of us and it's always more relaxed :) They brought me flowers and a thorntons chocolate champaign bottle :) bless them!

So now I've just been preparing for the move out to uni! I've got sooo much stuff :| I think my parents are keen to get rid of me haha! I'm excited to move out but I don't think I'm going to enjoy the lack of money I will have :( no more new shoes and hand bags. Sad sad times!

Well I haven't had time to do anything spectacular with my nails this week so I thought I'd show you and old mani I did using Models Own pink and purple. I used a tooth pick to create the little dots :) I liked this mani because it's not very often I have a different pattern on each nail (it's just a bit crazzzyy for me :p) but I think the pastel colour tone it down a little :)

Anywayssss I hope you like it :)

Ruleee Britania!!

Hi guys :)

This year has been pretty good for us Brits. I missed the queens jubilee because I was on holiday, but I really caught the Olympic fever.

Initially I hadn't planned on watching much but I thought the opening ceremony was brilliant, and I ended up finding myself screaming at the TV most nights. Some of the highlights for me were Mo winning double gold and I was pretty happy with our equestrian medals :)

So like many of us, I decided to show my pride with a new mani :) I know it's late now but with the para olympics a few days away I thought I'd it show you guys anyway :)

The blue is Barry M navy, the white base is Models Own and the glitter is also Models Own :) For the heart, I painted the union jack first then went around it with a black nail art pen.

Hope you like :)
