Bonjour!

Bonjour everyone!

Today's post is a liiiiiittle bit late due to a university assignment, but the others are all going to be late this week too so don't worry about it.

For today anyway I have a cute slightly-Spring, slightly-Winter mani for you with a feature of the Eiffel Tower thanks to a cute little water decal I received oh-so-long-ago during Christmas.





For a base colour, I used a polish I received in an order the other week of a pale green-blue- Nicole by OPI's "I Shop Mintage". It's a perfect colour for spring!
I then added the water decal of the cute little Eiffel Tower, before adding on a sparkly blue polish- Nicole by OPI's "Blue-berry Sweet On You" from their gumdrops range. This forms a little base for the tower to stand on and also creates a cute little icy/frosted stand.




My ring nail was a different matter and I used a polish that I'd kept hidden away for a month or so- plus- it's an indie polish! A holographic indie polish for that matter! :D It's called "Descendants of Salem" by Freckles Polish.
I added some spots in the formation of a flower-like explosion to highlight this nail slightly, though they didn't show up as well as I'd expected.


And there you have it! I hope you like this mani, I think it's definitely one of my favourites!
I've updated the nail polish list recently too, so all my newer polishes are finally up on there.
Keep your eyes peeled this week for a House Targaryen mani and also a swatchy swatch swatch!

See you later, hope your week is going well!

Happy 2nd Blogiversary!

Hey everyone! It's officially the 2nd year of blogging over here on Nail Parade,  and I honestly can't believe that this is it, the two year mark already. I remember sitting in sixth form deciding to do this as a bit of a 'why not' thing and here I am now sitting in my room in Manchester still writing it, and loving it, after two whole years. It's really crazy!

Return of the Blogger

Howdy! How are you all? Me? I'm great! My second year of university is (finally) over, and I am so, so ready for the summer to get started - although the Manchester weather seems to be preventing this. The nail course I was doing is also over, so I'm one step closer to becoming a nail technician if my degree happens to go down the pothole (which hopefully it doesn't, because the world needs animals now more than ever in my opinion). So basically, I'm back to being 99% stress free, and extremely bored with hardly anything to do. And so, I have returned to you delightful people (if you are still there) and to any of you who join me to walk on the path of Nail Parade from this point forwards. What's the plan then? I'm gonna mess around with the blog layout a little, to start with, I think! I'm also planning lots of exciting swatches, and nail art funs for you all mixed in with the occasional book review, travel and lifestyle posts, as always, and probably...

Your Guide to Barry M Gelly's!

Finally , the time has come for the ever-promised "Barry M Gelly Polishes Review & Swatch" Post! YAY! Now, now, settle down, settle down, and prepare yourself for an image-heavy post! Panorama View? Yes please... Okay, so that picture isn't too great. But there's the colours that between us (Me and Rhian) have in the Gelly range. We're only missing "Grapefruit" I think...
