GoT: House Targaryen!

Haiiiii everyone!

So it's technically Thursday right now but I'm gonna skim over that and point out that it's a "The Fandoms Strike Back!" Game of Thrones day today!

Today's post is focussing on my second favourite House of the series... House Targaryen!
(Cue sassy dragons... or sassy dragon nails?)




Now I'm not as talented as some of those amazing nail bloggers are with their paintbrushes, so I stuck to a silhouette of a dragon, but I still love the way it turned out.



The bright red base (or the "Fire") is Nicole by OPI's "American as Apple Pie" from their Carrie Underwood collection. The dragon (or "blood") is Nails Inc's "Victoria" in their Gel Effect range. It also comes as a normal polish colour though!


I also smeared a little bit of a "T" onto my thumb nail for Targaryen! Yay!



To do this silhouette dragon then, I just used a simple detail brush with my polish and ended up going over parts in a few layers. It honestly doesn't look this patchy in person but due to the delightful weather today I had to use my camera's flash to get crisp pictures. I still like it anyway!



So what do you think of these? Which House are you routing for? 
Also, bonus points to anyone who can answer the following question...
What does Daenerys call her three dragons in the series? (No cheating!)

Answers will be revealed in the next GoT post! See you around ;)

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...
