Baking Day!

Hey everyone!
There's no Blogger's Bookshelf post today, cause I've been reading the Harry Potter's recently and you've already had a post on those! I've taken a quick one-book break though, so you will have a book post next week :)

So to make up for all of that, I brought you a quick little "what I did today" kind of post!
Well... today- I baked! My Mam set me the challenge of making a cupcake-shoe, which is pretty much a cupcake joined to a stick-like object to make it look like a heeled shoe.

So it's mixture time! Woop woop!



Mmm, bright red cake cases!


And the mixture's in... About to go in the oven!


All cooked! :)


I made a bit of a mess... oops!


But.... Tadaaaa! Slightly messy completely unprofessional shoe cake! I'm so proud that it actually worked, despite the mess that it looks!


And this is what i did to the rest of the cupcakes- the bows are made of a sugar-paper wafer that you had to glue together almost- and they're so adorable!


But then with all the fun, comes the washing up. Which isn't great for your nails, as I'm sure a lot of you know by now!



But hey, it was all worth it. 




Jealous? :D They're so yummy hehe!
And that's all for today! I'll be back tomorrow to showcase my nails (you can see one in the pic above!) which are a part of Life in Lacquer's challenge! The post will probably be up around lunch time, so enjoy these yummy pics for now. See you then!

The Random Sunday Post!

Hello everyone! This is a super quick random post just to say I'm back and also what will be coming up this week! So, I'm still due a Blue Nails post for the British Nail Blogger's Colour Me Crazy Challenge- this will be up tomorrow instead of a Book/Lifestyle post! From Wednesday, the normal posts will resume, so you can expect a Pink Mani on this day for this week's challenge nails! Then on Thursday, it's A Level results day, which means a lot of nervous stressy things to sort out, and I may not have time to write up a post in time for Friday- but I will definitely try, and also update you all in my potential University place! If there is a post on Friday, it'll be a typical naily post- probably a swatch of something! And that is all I think you need to know! Good Luck to anyone else getting results on Thursday! ~Rachel

Mail: Messy Mani

Hello! Let it be known that from this day forth, any nail posts posted on Mondays shall be known as "Mail's". Yay! For the first "Mail" post, I'm going to be sharing one of my new purchases with you... Model's Own's "Erase" Corrector Pen! I feel like this could be a major turning point in my blog's image quality, as I no longer have an excuse for messy mani's.  Though I'd first like to point out that I feel like I have come quite far since the beginning of my blog, and no longer post images such as this... I mean, just look at that thumb!? (Polish is Barry M Spring Green) ...Except for today, I'm posting a very (purposefully) messy mani, to show you how the corrector pen can work! Also please keep in mind that I actually did this mani pretty much in the dark, around midnight the other day. :D I quite enjoyed being super careless with my painting, actually. Is that wrong of me? Also, you m

Wail: Birthday Blue!

Hi everyone! So it was my 18th birthday yesterday, hence why this post is a little late! But I have a fun post for you all to enjoy :) Introducing to you- my birthday mani! I love love love these polishes- I think I've only used them once each, but wow, they're just amazing and I definitely need to use them more. Apologies for the little bit of tip-wear, it's been on since Saturday (so, 5 days between application and the picture taking!) so the wear on these polishes is actually very good! The first polish is Rimmel London's Salon Pro by Kate, in the shade "Britpop" which is such a fun name! The colour is also absolutely stunning, it's such a rich blue, but is kinda bright at the same time and a borderline dark teal colour. The brush for application is also pretty wide, which makes coverage super easy in only one to two strokes! There's another bonus too- the polish is very shiny even before a top coat! Totally recommend this polish, a
