LiL Challenge: Food!

Hey everyone!
Yes, yes, it's Thursday- it's usually one of my days off, but shh, I brought a surprise for you all!
This month (July, already!?) I'm doing a Nail Art Challenge set up by Life in Lacquer!

If you want to join in too, there's still time, and you don't have to join in every single challenge day if you don't want to, but it would be awesome if you do.


Here's my mani for the first topic- food! 

I remembered vaguely that I had a cute little fruity stamping plate somewhere in my stamping kit- and I was right! Look how cute these things are! 






The polish I used was called "Mayfair" by Nails Inc. It's a cute little slightly-metallic white/cream shade, though I wouldn't wear it by itself. It's surprisingly opaque, and took only two coats to cover my nails evenly, which is awesome! 


Here's the plate I used- Konad m55. Isn't it cute?


My friend Sarah is also taking part in this challenge! She took the food spectrum to the opposite side that I did, and went for some unhealthy, yet super cute cupcakes!



Aren't they cute!? 
So, that's today's surprise and challenge reveal- check back on Monday, after 6pm UK time for the 2nd challenge prompt- pink!


I hope you enjoyed today's post, and will check back tomorrow where I'll be showing you my prom nails!
Thanks for reading,

Make Sure You Follow!

Hey everyone! Apologies for the lack of yesterday's post- unfortunately this one if going to be the last before I go away tomorrow. I'm not 100% sure if there'll be wifi at the place we're staying (we're going to study the animals after all, not to be social over the internet), but just in case there is, you should make sure that you're following me on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook! I'll try to post at least one image or update on each per day, assuming that we have wifi, so to be a part of this adventure, make sure you hit the buttons!

How To: Gradient Nails

Gradient nails are a great way to ensure that your mani matches your outfit over a set period of days (depending on how many colours you use), and it also just looks pretty dang awesome. You've seen a few of my own mani's where gradients have been used (these ones below, in example), especially those in more recent posts! So a tutorial is definitely long overdue- I hope you find it useful!

GoT: A Song of Ice and Fire

Hey everyone! So today is a very exciting post. That is... it's the start of a new post series! Behold, for on Wednesdays... The Fandoms Strike Back In other words, I'm one of those people who likes to obsess over some TV shows, movies and books, and totally wish they were all real so I could live in them... I mean, sometimes the real world just seems so dull .  To begin with, I thought I'd kick it off with a bang... Game of Thrones!
