Short, simple and stunning. I love these nails. I don’t know why I don’t use this deep navy more often as it is such a sumptuous colour. The little gold dotted design works perfectly with it too. There’s some quite Egyptian or Indian about this design I feel.

I thought I mighta tempted fate talking about Spring and sunshine. But look, the temperatures didn’t drop and storm who-knows-what-name-we’re-at-now didn’t rear its ugly face. So I’m happy, April has been an exciting month.

The trouble with these nails?

With Christmas edging ever closer the only appropriate nail art is of course Christmas themed. After last years glitter trees, I kept it a little simpler this year. Continue reading “Rocking Around the Christmas Tree”
Is it still Wednesday? This has been a long trying day it almost seems like this morning was yesterday. All the more reason to share so pretty nails and forget about the stress that is the day job. And how can a post some wed-nails-day on a Thursday? I’m not sure if it’s still in style to match your nails to your outfit, everything supposed … Continue reading Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday

The stamp just wouldn’t show up though, even when I tried a different colour. I’m not sure if it’s the dark purple base I chose or that the kit was from … Continue reading Shooting Star
When you find trousers this floaty and amazing you just want to move in them. It took all my restraint not to leap down the street. I picked these chiffon flares up in the ASOS winter sale and have been desperate for summer to arrive to get them on. I have a similar pair of black chiffon flares from Forever 21 and didn’t think they … Continue reading She Wants to Move
So turns out the place for nail art accessories in Poundland, who have thought. You all know I’m a sweetie addict so I’m in there fairly often to top up my office sweetie drawer, yes I have a whole drawer. Last week I came across this awesome little accessory wheel. They had loads of different ones, well worth a look. When I go for embellishment … Continue reading Leather-Studded Kiss
Who says sequins are only for nights out? I’ve been eyeing up sequin trousers for months after spying some amazing pairs on Pinterest. When I saw these in H&M I had to have them. Lucky for me they went on sale after Christmas and I picked them up half price. Teamed with double stripes they’re dressed down enough for dog walks with my favourite boy. … Continue reading Sparkle and Stripes
