A to Z - M is for Multi coloured!

Hey All !

This week's A to Z theme is multi coloured, and I really don't think I have had more ideas for any other theme !

I had so many ideas zipping around my brain all at once I had to write them all down in my diary so I wouldn't forget them !

Ultimately I went for a technique that I have been practicing ( and failing ) at for a very long time... Reverse stamping !

And here is my first successful reverse stamp design! YAY !!

Birthday Blog Post !!!

Hey Everyone!

It's my birthday today and I thought I'd share a couple designs that I wore for my birthday this weekend. 

I hope you enjoy them! They're both recreations of past birthday manicures. One is from last year (2014) and one from 3 years ago (2012) I'm hoping there's a little bit of improvement in my technique between then and now ;)

First up is a recreation of sorts of a balloon mani I did three years ago, This was at the start of my nail art "career" so it wasn't the best, but I remember how proud I was at the time ! It was probably the most complex design I had done to date,

Happy Halloween blog post

Happy Halloween lovelies !!!

This is the post I have been leading up to all October :)

Herein lies every Halloween design I have made this year! Some of which you may have seen via my Instagram, but some are a few surprises I have sneaked in.

This post is going to be very photo heavy, so I'm going to try and soften the blow by not writing a novel before each one as a description.

First up is a Day of the Dead / Calavera inspired design, I wanted to concentrate on distinguishing features rather than attempt at a teeny tiny whole face on each nail with not a lot of detail.

MoYou London Plate review

Hi All !!

So I was lucky enough to be sent two stamping plates from MoYou London to review for them.

The plates up for review are Hipster plate 07 & Explorer plate 08 !

Hit the jump for the review and to see what I created. :)

A to Z of Polish - X is for...

Xyloid !!

So it is another difficult week for me as I don't have ANY polishes beginning with X, so I've winged it yet again and gone with an obscure word instead.

Xyloid is a Greek word meaning "resembling wood"

So I obviously came up with some nail art to match ;)

A to Z of Polish. "V" is for.... Vanilla !

Hey All !!

I hope you're all having a nice Thursday so far :)

So I went through all of my polishes to find a good "V" to use for today's challenge, but I didn't have one ! So I hot footed it out to Superdrug yesterday to get myself  "Vanilla" from Barry M's Matte range, and I ended up coming out with 11 polishes ! Ooops !

Aaaaaanyway, by the skin of my teeth, I managed an autumny inspired design. Hit the jump to see what I did. 

I won something !!! / MoYou 20k Rainbow challenge

So, if you follow my Instagram, you may know I participated in the MoYou London Rainbow challenge, where you had to create different designs using MoYou plates with a dominant colour of their choosing.

It has been one of my favourite challenges yet & it really inspired me to produce something original using the plates I have. ( Luckily I have quite a few plates to choose from )

I tried to create something interesting with each design and it looks like at least one of them did well :)

A to Z of Polish. T is for... Thunder and lightning!

Hey All !

So it's that time of the week again !

This weeks letter is "T" and one polish jumped straight into my head. "Thunder and Lightning" by Models Own.

This Polish is a gorgeous sheer black jelly with tiny holographic particles and it is absolutely gorgeous !
