The Adventures Before Christmas (2)

By
Hello again!
There's just a few minutes left til Christmas Day, so here's a super quick updatey post! WOO!
***Includes Nail-y Goodness***



Monday/Christmas Eve-Eve
This must've been a pretty dull day because I'm sitting here and I can't remember what I did... :3 Of what I can remember, I tidied up a tiny bit, did a driving lesson, moped around a lot and iced the Christmas cake... Not a bad day I guess?
The weather was super miserable though, so I was glad to be confined to the house!

I also realised that the last Christmassy post was actually lacking in images of the Christmassy things we have around the house! So I took the chance of an empty house to snap some pics with my phone :) *I'll have an actual camera tomorrow- Finally!



And I also made myself a yummy breakfast/lunch/brunch :3


*Enter Nail-y Goodness* I did my nails late on Sunday night, so they were acceptable to snap at yesterday ^^ Here's a few clicks- polishes used: Teal by Barry M; 'Westbourne Park' (Holographic) by Nails Inc

And the little snowflakes and snowmen that you see there are stickers that my Mam dropped into my Christmas card! You can probably find similar ones on eBay stores and such!
Now I feel all festive!

Christmas Eve
Why hello there Christmas Eve, didn't you sneak up on us? It's been a busy busy day (I got up at 6.30... It's school holidays!!). First thing this morning my mother and myself were in the local Marks and Spencer's collecting our food order for tomorrow and buying some extra goodies (which included pink lemonade and prawn crackers, which have now "mysteriously" disappeared...).
When we got home, we managed to rearrange the fridge in true Christmas-Tetris style!

I braved the local Sainsbury's a bit later while my Mam was at work to grab some more goodies for us to eat, and a new iPhone charging wire because mine broke (urgh!), and wow, it was super busy! Guess it's expected though, isn't it? :3
The rest of the day seems to have disintegrated into a flurry of tidying and looking for things to do. And that is pretty much it!

Have an amaaaazing Christmas! I leave you with one last piece of Christmas Spirit, and I shall see you all very soon! (Probably Boxing Day!) :D Goodnight, sleep tight, I hope Santa is good to you!!

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

By
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...

"Where did all my money go!?"

By
What's this- an extra post!? I told you it would happen! Before we get started, please note that other titles for this post were considered, including "Bye bye student loan", "Nails over Food" and also "Oh poo, now I'm skint" So basically, one night...I went shopping. I have only one regret, and that is how much money I spent! In total, I got 6 parcels within 2 or 3 weeks, consisting of 19 polishes, 1 "Bling it On" kit, 1 set of nail strips, 1 eyeshadow palette, 7 stamping plates, 1 nail-studs wheel, 1 pack of nail stickers, 6 packs of water decals, 1 (tiny) pack of nail-studs and finally, 2 rolls of nail foils!
