Sunday Nails - Chevron

One of the best things about turning 17 is that I can now learn how to drive. While I'm sure it'll be a scary experience, being able to drive will make my life so much easier and give me a lot more independence so I'm very excited to start my lessons!  I'm so excited that everything I see has started to remind me of driving, for example to most people today's nail art is just a simple monochromatic...

Sunday Nails - Pastel Perfection

Despite having a very monochromatic and sometimes boyish wardrobe I'm still a girly girl at heart. I love the colour pink, unicorns and glitter which is why I love this nail art so much because my nails look like unicorn poop. I was going to do some sort of birthday nail art on top of this base to celebrate my 17th birthday on Wednesday but this was just to pretty to cover up with balloons and cake. To...

August Wishlist

August is by far my favourite month of the year. Summer sunshine, bank holidays, foreign holidays and my birthday: August has got it all. As we are approaching the end of August we are also fast approaching my 17th birthday which has come very quickly if I do say so myself, so quickly in fact I haven't had time to post a August/birthday wishlist.  With every 'wishlist' I do, they are things...

Sunday Nails - Granite

GUILTY BLOGGER ALERT! So I'm sorry for being a bad blogger this week and not posting at all until today, but sometimes life just gets in the way. Just to give you a little update on my life at the moment; I can't remember if I mentioned it or not but a couple of months I got a temporary job at Clarks Shoes for the 'back to school' period, while I enjoy it I have been working five days a week and then...

Sunday Nails - Do You Want To Go To The Seaside?

There is nothing more summery to me than the beach. When I say the beach I mean a beach like that in the film The Beach, not beach as in what you will find at Western Supermare e.g mud, and with my Instagram being filled with hundreds of pictures of beaches how could I not do a beach themed nail art? To create this nail art I first created a colour gradient using a sponge, then used 2 different...

Back To School Wardrobe Staples

One of the biggest differences between Sixth Form and Secondary School is that you are allowed to wear you own clothes everyday. As I found out last year the transition from uniform to your own clothes is surprisingly stressful: choosing an outfit everyday, trying to avoid outfit repeating and the manic morning panic of trying to find the clothes you want 5 minutes before you leave the house because...

Sunday Nails - Clean, Sharp and Simple

My favourite type of nail art are always the modern, fresh and clean cut designs rather than the complex arty designs that I sometimes do. It's because clean cut geometric shapes never look garish and I think they fit in more with my clothes and style. So when I saw that a/w's nail art trends were minimalism and neutrals, while flicking through the latest edition of company magazine my heart leaped with...
