piCture pOlish Moody Blues by Polly Polish - Swatches


Today I'm excited to be showing you one of the brand new piCture pOlish collaboration shades! This is Moody Blues, created with Hannah of Polly Polish, and I believe it's the first collaboration with a British blogger which makes it all the more special. Hannah was kind enough to gift a bottle to me so I could try it out!

Winter Warmer



My love for Barry M's 2013 Autumn/Winter polishes, the Matte and Royal Glitter collections, is no secret. They mix and match so well together and it's easy to create simple, classic looks with them. The mattes in particular go great with small studs!

Green Distressed


I can't get enough of the Distressed technique at the moment! My Halloween take on it was my most popular post for October. As green is my favourite polish colour (and incidentally the most pain in the bum to get colour correct...typical) this combination was inevitable!

Coheed and Cambria Nail Art


Tonight I'm going to see my favourite band in the whole world ever, Coheed and Cambria. As appears to be the norm for me now, I did some nail art for the occasion! If you're not familiar with the band then this manicure probably will mean very little to you, so I'll give a very brief explanation of each nail (y'know incase anyone cares!)

Lacquer Lust Peridot Swatches


I'd been lusting after the Lacquer Lust (very apt name) Birthstone polishes for a while, so when Rainbow Connection got them in stock I grabbed a couple! Obviously I had to go for Peridot because it's my birthstone, and as luck would have it it's my favourite from the collection anyway.

MoYou London XL Stamping Plates Review



Hi! Today I have a review of the MoYou London XL stamping plates and a cute floral manicure I did with them. Before I'd even opened the plates I was drawn to the thoughtful packaging! How lovely is it!?

Sportsgirl Nail It! Speckled Mint Swatches


I don't often post single swatches any more, but I have some gorgeous polishes lying around that need a place on my blog! This one is Speckled Mint by Sportsgirl, an Australian clothing shop that's apparently kind of like Topshop, and Nail It! is their nail polish range. This was sent to me by lovely Hannah of Polly Polish!

Gunpowder, Treason and Plot...


Happy November the 5th, aka Bonfire Night aka Guy Fawkes Night aka get wet and watch some fireworks night! I think I'll be staying in tonight, the weather looks crap and I'm an old lady who prefers a blanket and a cup of tea ;) I have however done my nails for the occasion!

Green and Purple Nimbus


Today I had a go at the Nimbus technique, as seen on The Nailasaurus. Mine turned out quite differently but that's the beauty of tutorials, you sometimes get many different outcomes! Alex pointed out in the comments that this looks like a Bokeh effect, and I agree!
