Golden Triangles!

Goooooooooooooood morning peeps:) I have a raging hangover but feeling oddly chirpy.........possibly because my nails are AWESOME! I am so pleased with these, I might never take them off. Well, at least not for a day or two:)

The design isn't my own, I nabbed it from the amazing Whitney at Dressed Up Nails - if you don't already follow her, you need to, her designs are amazing and her pictures are stunning.

Anyhoo, my nails......



Ta dah! 


The base colour is Barry M Lychee, one of their new Gellies. It's amazing, two coats and it was perfect. The gold triangles and black lines are my Models Own nail pens and the gold glitter is the spectacular Disco Heaven; the blue and green glitter scattered throughout it make it a step up form the standard gold glitter:) 

Right, I'm going to make myself a very strong coffee.......................

Nude and gold leopard print manicure

Ooooooooh my gosh I'm tired. This week has been beyond insane, and the weekend isn't going to be much better methinks. On that note, apologies for my absence.

 I did get one chance to paint my nails this week, and as I only had an hour, I needed to do something that I knew I could do with no messing up - leopard print:) I decided to go for my favourite colour scheme: black, nude and gold:) Sadly, I only managed to get one non-blurry photo (maybe my camera is having a bad week too?), but here is that special one lol:)


Ah leopard print, how I love thee:) Simple yet effective, always a winner. I hope you have a great weekend peeps, I'll be back soon I promise x

Stripes and half moons - NYE mash up

Firstly, happy new year peeps! It's 2013, whoop whoop.

Secondly, arggggggggggggggggh - I'm hanging. Actually hanging. I've tried all my usual hangover cures (cold shower, Coca Cola, cheesy covered potato waffles, sleep) but still feel wretched. Ah well, it was a good night. An afternoon of quaffing champagne (yah, that's how I roll baby!) and then a meal with friends, followed by the pub and then a random appearance at a house party. A lot of partying rolled into one night:)

Anyway, I had my difficult to match dress on last night; a gorgeous cream with black lace number, somehow a total pain in the ahem to pair with a polish. In the end I went for a nude and black mish mash. I have to admit I wasn't happy with this manicure over all, although I do love the thumb. In my mind it was....different. Can't explain it, but this wasn't my intended outcome. However, there was partying to do and so no time to change it.

I used my beloved Nude Beige by Models Own and Black by Barry M. The middle finger is Black Multi Glitter, also by Barry M.

I'm definitely going to do the half moons again, I loved them!

P.s. I mentioned the other day I was cheering myself up by cooking; these are the outcome. Pork and prawn wontons - nommy nommy.


Right, I'm off to slob on the sofa. Enjoy your first day of 2013 people, I hope this year brings you joy and happiness.
