Spring Has Sprung
There’s been a couple dry days, the sun has peeked out and it’s even been warm on a few occasions. In Glasgow this counts as Spring. Of course I had to go for some bright Spring like nails to encourage the seasons along.
Put a Ring on it
I was criticised for my purple nails, they clashed with my engagement ring apparently. Not that I’m one to bother about clashing colours or patterns but I thought I’d go for something simple to show off my ring.

Under the Sea
These are my mermaid nails, aren’t they fab? Glitter is a sure fire way to cheer a girl up and after a long day at work and another to follow, cheering up I needed. I try not to post similar nail art two weeks in a row. However, after said horror day I was not minded to spend an hour or so painting my nails.

Short and Sweet
My nails were neglected over new year and ended up broken, short and weak. I thought a simple design might make them look a little longer. The middle fingers were particularly short, hence the central vertical lines. Colour and negative space are always favourites of mine so I adapted these into a varied geometric design.

I have a strict rule that Christmas should not start to December, so these little nails were painted hurriedly last night and not over my leisurely weekend. I made a good start on the present front too, thank god for online shopping. As … Continue reading The Holly That Will Be
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
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
Embrasser C’est Francais
A French manicure is too boring for me but I wanted something simple after my Halloween nails. After a nude base coat I added these chic little black tips. The tips I painted with a little brush and added the dots with a dotter tool. When painting the tips don’t stress about getting it perfect first time, I found I was able to balance everything … Continue reading Embrasser C’est Francais
