30 DAY CHALLENGE, DAY 18 - HALF MOONS

aah, so simple and chic, yet the hardest nail design i may have ever done ! *shocking*
and this morning i learnt on rebecca likes nails  that it was an old tradition for women to leave a half moon ! 
i love the half moons and first saw them on dita von teese and decided to try them out, i don't think i've ever been so frustrated with a design ! oh the horror ! they came out wonky, i tried the guides and they made things worse, anyway since then i only admired them from a distance loll, and when i saw them on list i thought oh no ! but i had a great idea, i saw a picture on google about a year ago and i had to recreate it 

and in true nail loopy style, i managed to knock my little finger *typical*

but i loved the rhinestones because it didn;t make the half moons look soo wonky loll

the crackle didnt't shatter in lines like it should have done (maybe it was because i didn't wait for the base colour to dry !)


i really quite like this design, as it's quite chic and neutral but also rather funky loll, would you wear this ? 

ooops and i also want to say thankyouu so much ladies for showing Anna at Pretty Digits soo much support, i feel so connected, loll hehe : P

30 DAY CHALLENGE, DAY 17 - GLITTER

yaaay, we have heating again in the house! anyway i wanted to do something amazing for this post, but i was lacking a bit of inspiration so for this i just mixed a load of loose glitter together for the accent but you can see the red kind of melted ! and for the other nails i mixed opi - show it and glow it, bring on the bling, mad as a hatter, extra-va-vaganza and another random glitter 



then i mattified the whole lot

30 DAY CHALLENGE, DAY 14 - FLOWERS

very quick post today ladies, i have far too much work to do,
so today is flowers and yes there were tonnes of flowery patterns i could do but i thought i'd try daisy chains, didn't work quite as well as i'd hoped

30 DAY CHALLENGE, DAY 13 - ANIMAL PRINT

so i went nail polish shopping this weekend to get some polishes for some swaps, and obviously how could i not get some for myself? well actually i only got 2 for my self  one which was the gorgeous facets of fuschia from revlon, i loveee it : ) and i managed to find a bottle of my beloved no7 poolside blue in boots : ) 
and now since we've started school again i'm going to have a lot of work to do, it's my last year and i have to doo really well, so it means head down now loll and my posts won't be as regular, i'm going to try and finish this challenge as i don't want to leave things unfinished 
anyway for this mani i wanted to do something different to the regular leopard print, and i failed i did tiger print but this was with a twist, on the accent nail i wanted to create some texture so i put some wool on and sealed it in with a tonne of topcoat and the continued painted it the same as the other nails anyway here 








lots of pictures loll, i'm not sure if i like this look or not, leave a comment and let me know if you like it or if you want to see a tutorial
