anyway this mani i had on for a full week, i loved this !! 

this is a base coat of ciate for asos in the colour lily, a gorgeous green/turquoise colour (which refused to be photographed correctly) and then i added these dripy things in opi simmer and shimmer, this should have  been a birthday mani lol, i can't stop raving about this mani, i really love it lol, i took about 80 pictures of this, i'm not even joking, it was painful to limit it to this many pictures lol, ok i am going to stop talking now and let you enjoy these pictures

RADIOACTIVE !!

im sorry again for this late post, (why do all my posts start with an apology? loll)
anyway on to more important matters ; )

this is yesterdays mani

this is china glaze yellow polka dot bikini, which is the brightest, neonest highlighter yellow ever! and my camera refuses to capture it : ( 

but unfortunately the yellow was a streaky neon horror ! this was 4 or 5 coats!

yes, i knocked the little finger, aargh! you can see where i've tried to fix it !

then i decided to add some white crackle, i quite like this combo and best thing, it hides all the flaws : ) lol

CHOCOLATE DIPPED STRAWBERRIES OR STRAWBERRIES N' CREAM?

omg, i am sooo tired,

and again i have to apologize for my lack of posts, but i have a valid excuse (i think!) 

ok so, yesterday we went to alton towers and we set off at 8am yes !! 8 and we got back at 8 and i was soo tired, and the black eyed peas were playing there today and they were setting up the stage and lights and everything, it looked soo cool, we defo should have gone today lol and today was also the last day of school yaaay, so i'm free for 2 months now !!! : ) 

alright lets get down to business, this design was actually a request from a freind and she didn't even get to see them lol, anyway here are my chocolate dipped strawberry nails *yum*

i thought it might be fun to do the chocolate in drips, this is actually the 2nd time i did drips, do you think it looks ok?

and on my right hand i thought hmm... lets try strawberries and cream and used white polish instead

ok, soo what do you think? and are you a strawberry n' chocolate girl or more of a strawberry n' cream girl?

me? ... strawberries n' cream all the way : )

DUPE ALERT, OPI ALL SHOOK UP vs ZOYA SYLVIE

hey everybody, hi dr nick, 'xcuse the simpsons reference lol, im in one of my hyper moods again lol, it might be this nail polish loll,

you might remember my hauls from sometime ago, well it contained opi 'all shook up' i found out it's an old opi and it's been discontinued, anyway when i went to go and put it in my stash i found lo and behold it was very similar to zoya sylvie so i thought i'd do a comparison for you

oh yeah and another thing i have organised my stash by colour and i just couldn't decide if this should go pink or red, (i may just be colour blind lol) so i got the help of none other than my 7 yr old brother and when he said pink, it went in with the pinks !

anyway on to the pictures

bottle shot

 middle and little finger have opi , the other two fingers zoya

this is the thumb, the left half is opi the other half is zoya, and you can see the overlap in the middle loll 

close up of the zoya, it's more red than the opi and its thinner and sheerer, this needed 3 coats 

and this is the opi, look at the hint of pink/purple in there !! this could have been a one coater, but i did 2 

overall these 2 are quite similar but also quite different lol, i think i need both but i'm not too sure. 

i love the colour of them both and must admit even though i have tonnes of red nail polish, i haven't worn any red in months, last time i wore it someone made a comment about how my nails looked like prostitute nails and i know i shouldn't care about what people say but it did put me off a little, but after this i am definitely wearing this again : ) 

see ya soon ladies

FLORAL, DRESS INSPIRED

helooooww lovelies, how are you all today?
i am sooo very tired, it's been a crazy weekend, which has consisted of 3 bbq, loads of people coming round, huge headaches, lots of crying, too much sunshine (amazing sun for swatching etc. but sadly no time) and oh i don't know if i mentioned this before, but my dad has decided to build a shed himself (and no he is not a builder) and that means we all have to help out and it completely tiring, running around all day and on top of that everyone's been obsessed with bbq and lucky me has had to prepare a tonne of food ! oh but i made this amazing coconut cream pie (if i may say so myself hehe) i forgot to take a picture and when i remembered it'd all finished!

anyway i've got a quick mani for you today, this was inspired by my dress, lol 

i sponged on the base, but the colours kind of changed !

yep, it's not perfect, the colours aren't even right and the flowers are dodgy ! but it's alright 

 well i'll talk to you again soon ladies, take care xxxxx

OPI, THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY - 3 DIFFERENT LOOKS

hola ladies, how is everybodyy today ? are you all guud?

ok so this is the first time i'm wearing this nail polish and i must say when i saw the pics of it i thought 'same old same old' but i must say i actually quite like this

noo hold on, i love this !! 

look at that gawguss shimmer and purple duochrome !!!

then i decided to add a matte top coat, i thought it might have the same/similar effect as the opi suede polishes   (hugee lemming lol). i think it has a very subtle effect but it's heading that way i think 

me like : ) 

and then finally i wanted to add a black crackle as thats the way it was kind of intended to be worn, so i added a top coat and then the barry m black crackle 

my favourite is probably matte, what's your favourite? 

toodlesss ladies xxxxx
