Guest Post from Cubbiful

My next guest poster is Mina aka Cubbiful. Mina is super imaginative and quirky when it comes to nail art and I love reading her blog to see what she comes up with next! She's gone with a nautical theme for her post (one of my favourite themes) read on for a closer look

Spring Trends Collaboration with River Island - Glamathon

I've teamed up with River Island to create some nail art inspired by one of their Spring 2015 trends! Find out about my inspiration and how I created the look ahead

Ocean Stripes

I am such a sucker for tropical, ocean-esque blues (and greens!) and this manicure combines two of my favourites!

Merry Christmas!

And so to my final Christmas manicure of this year! Something simple and classic in my favourite Christmas colour combination, red and gold...also Gryffindor colours. ;)

Striped Tie-Dye

Does anybody else ever accidentally schedule their posts for AM instead of PM? I keep doing it! I scheduled this one for 6am instead of 6pm, so quickly deleted it before realising I'd have to write it again. I need to give my head a wobble. Anyway, I've named this one striped tie-dye, because that's what it reminds me of even though that isn't what I was originally going for!

Guest Post from Totally Nailed - Monochrome

I'm on holiday for a week as of yesterday, so I've arranged 3 guest posters to help me out while I'm gone! I was planning on having more, but I left it a bit last minute and was, as always, disorganised. I'll arrange it better next time! (so she says). 

The first post is courtesy of Danielle from Totally Nailed. I came across Danielle's blog a little while ago and I love her nails and clear pictures. She posts lovely nail art and mixes it up with swatches too. She also does a very good spray marble which I wish I could achieve!

Hi Readers!

I am very happy to be doing a guest post for the lovely Allie, she is of course one of my favourite blogger ladies and so, so talented! It’s quite the honour. I have been dying to do some monochrome nail art for a while now, so what better time than today.

Pastel Stripes

Well, I've gone and royally messed up my camera settings...that'll teach me to mess around when I have no idea what I'm doing. So, apologies for the slightly odd looking pictures. Is it me or do they look very washed out and my hands look extra wrinkly?! Me and my camera are definitely not friends at the moment. 

Anyway, I did this accent nail using striping tape, and then carefully painting between the tape with a small nail art brush. I used Models Own Beth's Blue, Barry M Lemon Ice Cream and Barry M Berry Ice Cream. It reminds me of seaside rock!

Pink Candy Stripes

It's Spring. And it's snowing. All I have to say about that is UGH!! 

Moving on! I've got a striped mani today. You don't see stripes around here very often because I'm not too good with a striper brush, but I think I'll start doing more for practice because I do love stripes.

Here, I started with a base coat of Essie Blanc. I used Barry M Pink Flamingo and a striping brush to freehand the stripes, and then I went over some of them with Candy Lacquer Sugar Mama.

I'm not quite sure why my hands are turning out so red on my camera lately!
