Hey lovely nail arters, the temperature is definitely dropping here in the UK which means that it will soon be Christmas & time for Christmas manis! Yay! But in the meantime I have done a bit of an abstract design, what do you think? It's not as neat as I would have liked but it still took an hour and a half, at the end of which I was too tired to neaten! I hope it'snot too cold for comfort wherever you are! x

Luscious Purple
Hey all, I have reverted to my favourite staple design, a half moon with this gorgeous Rimmel purple and glitter lining. I really love this look on my nails, I think it looks really classy, hence me doing it a few times on this blog! I also love this colour, such a rich shade. I hope you're having a great week so far! x

Plain Natural Nails
Hello fellow nail nerds, I have taken the opportunity of posting a few pics of my bare nails today as I'm giving them a little breather from polish for a couple of days. I wanted to ask for any feedback on the condition of my nails from anyone who knows a bit about nail health. How do they look to you? I do have a problem with peeling layers on my nails, any tips on how to prevent this? Any feedback or help is appreciated. Happy polishing! x

Guy Fawkes Night - Fireworks Nails!
Hey all, I wanted to try and create the colourful look of fireworks on my nails for Guy Fawkes Night. I used individual bits of glitter to try and recreate the glittery lights of fireworks in the night sky. What do you think? I love fireworks! I hope you have a fun & safe fireworks night x

Scary Skulls - Halloween Nails!
Hey all, it is very nearly Halloween and so I have decided to indulge in some skull nails! Hopefully I'll be able to try at least one more Halloween theme before the scary season is out, I just love Halloween! It's just a shame I'm too old for trick-or-treating... Or am I... Hehe!

Not-so-lovely Lillies!
Hello lovely nail arters, I have decided to post this mani even though I really quite dislike it! It turned out nothing like how I wanted, I was attempting a lovely lily style design with nice detailed flowers but I discovered that I just don't have the required skill... yet! You may be wondering why I would bother posting a mani when I really don't actually like it but I want this blog to show my progress with nail art, good & bad. Have you ever done a mani that ended up a total disappointment? If so please share it with me! We can all learn from each other, that's the beauty of blogging! x

Hot Looks Swatches
Hey all, I got a couple of bargain polishes this week so I decided to do a simple mani just to see what the colours were like. They are from the Collection 2000 Hot Looks range & are called 'Minx' & 'Intense'. I got them for only 59p each! Bargain! What's your best nail bargain? What do you think of these colours? I really like them! x

Navy & Glitter Half Moons
Hey all, here is this week 's mani, I just love this navy blue! It's Maybelline Express Finish in 898 Denim Dash - which is appropriate as it's Jeans for Genes day on Friday. Will you be donning your favourite skinnies or bootcuts for the day? I hope so! x

Dripping Polish!
Hey guys, what do you think of my first attempt at a dripping manicure? The base is my plain nail with just some Rimmel base coat, I wanted the black drips to really stand out & thought just a plain nail base might look good. I quite like it, what do you think? Have you ever given this mani a try? x
