GoT: House Baratheon

Hey everyone!

Sorry for the week of silence, things have been busy with revision for yet another set of exams. When will they be over?!

Anyway, today brings the final Game of Thrones post to y'all. Which means that post-exams there'll be a new Fandom attacking the blog... dun dun duuun!
To bring the GoT posts to a close, I bring you...



House Baratheon!


Not gonna lie here, I'm not a huge fan of the Baratheon House really, but I do love their sigil. I have a kinda fascination with them I guess!


To create my mani this time round I focused on the stag's antlers and the crown, and had that as the focus of my centre nails. The yellow polish used is Rimmel London's "Sunshine", and the black is my usual Striper by Andrea Fullerton. 


For my thumb and pinkie, I wanted nails which were linked with the colours of the House but also added another depth to the whole manicure, so I added a coat of gold shimmer (Leighton Denny's Gold Dust) to all 5 nails, and then a coat of Orly's Love Each Other purple iridescent to my thumb and pinkie nails, which were based with Barry M's Matte Espresso. 





So there we have it! How do you like these Baratheon nails? And which Game of Thrones nails were your favourite!?

See you all on Friday!

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
