Update!

Wow, life's been busy haha.
Here's a quick run through of all the recent going on's and what's going to be happening very very soon :)

Previously...
I had an amazingly good week the other week, I found out that I got onto a Young Leaders programme, got accepted into a Uni in California and also passed my driving test! And of course bought some celebratory nail polishes to commend the occasions...
(From Barry M's new Gelly's release, of course)


And then I went camping in the mud for a whole weekend! (Yay, mud!) and managed to keep my nails intact the whole weekend, though I have no idea how!

Call me crazy, but after a lot of contemplating pro's and con's and life and money and such, I've decided to give up my American dream (for now!) and go for Manchester Uni (or Bangor Uni, depending on my grades). I guess some things are just better off in the cold and rain (like Zoology courses!)
Anyway, this means focusing 1000000% on my exams now, so there will be a short hiatus of posts from me. Don't worry though, I've booked some pretty amazing people to fill in for me until all 13 of my exams are over! You'll hear from me occasionally though, I have a few posts planned/prepared just in case. I also think I owe you an Allegiant Part 2 post still!? I'll try and get on that tomorrow! And of course you shall be seeing some swatches of the above polishes at some point, plus a few more polishes that I have been sitting in my nail polish drawer unused! And of course, keep your eyes peeled on social media (Facebook and Twitter!) for some of my hand-drawn nail art designs, which will transferred onto nails post-exams!
Thank you for reading and make sure you keep up to date with all the other bloggers around here :) See you after 13 beautiful exams!

(PS. I also managed to miss my 1 year blog-iversary, so I'm going to wait and celebrate a year and a half instead! YAY!)

  1. Wow that's a brilliant week (Which is a while ago now - oops!) I've just got the Kiwi and Damson from Barry M but have yet to swatch them so SNAP!

    1. Hehe, it wasn't that long ago! And I haven't swatched them completely yet, but I've worn all of them. I actually wore them at a camp, and they all survived the weekend with no chipping (though my nails were a mess, you can see here: https://twitter.com/nail_parade/status/465516798876856321/photo/1 ) but go and swatch them quickly because they're lovely colours!

LiL Challenge: Floral

Hello! Today's prompt for Life in Lacquer's July Nail Art Challenge is Floral! My initial reaction to this was "urgh. Great, I hate flowers." but then I found some really pretty designs around the internet and my spirits were lifted a little! (I really am crazy-impressed by a lot of these mind, they're so detailed and delicate and pretty)

Fridail: OPI Beach Sandies!

Happy Wednesday  Friday everybody! Where did the time go!? Anyway, we'll dive straight in with the post! I apologise in advance for the iPhone-quality of images, I'm still looking for some batteries that my camera won't complain about. Today I'm covering OPI's Beach Sandies from the Brazil collection, which is a little quartet of mini liquid sand polishes. Can I just say here, if anyone high up in the chain of OPI reads this (which is unlikely, but if you do then HI!), please please pleeeeease make these in full-sized bottles? Please! So... This is the box, and the four that you get (I swatched super quickly over each, so do excuse that)
