Fridail: Colour Me Crazy- Green!

By
Hey everyone!
Happy Friday! (It's the weekend- yay!)

First of all, I would like to apologise, because I don't have any time to do the final prompt in the Life in Lacquer July Challenge! :( But thank you for following that journey with me, and thanks again to Jade from Life in Lacquer for creating it- I had a lot of fun! :D

Also, before we dive into today's post properly, there will be no posts next week. I'm off to do a 5 day leadership program, so won't have any time (or a laptop). So go and take a well-deserved week off from reading my ramblings while I go and learn how to be a leader.

On with the post then! Today I'm showcasing my green mani for the British Nail Blogger's Colour Me Crazy challenge!




Deciding what to do for this one was a bit hard because I just love green so much! But I recently bought a green-blue crackle polish by Nails Inc, so simple had to use it. I also remembered about the bottle of glitter I have from Nails Inc's "Bling it On: Emerald" set- so I grabbed that to use too!



Polishes used are: Barry M's Aquarium "Arabian" (thumb and pinkie base colour)


Barry M's Silk "Meadow" (index and ring fingers base colour)


Nails Inc "Clapham Crackle Topcoat"




...I think I have a new favourite crackle polish! 


Anyway, looking at this mani on my nails right now, I'm loving how the duo-colours in "Arabian" are poking their way through the crackle, and also how the glitter is shimmering today! The colours are just perfect too, darn you Barry M & Nails Inc for making such wonderful polishes!

This is also my last mani before I cut my nails in preparation for my program... *sniff sniff* Goodbye long nails! :( 




So that's all from me! I shall see you on Monday the 11th of August, which just happens to be 3 days before A Level Results day (yet another thing to cry about).
Have a lovely week without me! 
~Rachel

Happy 2nd Blogiversary!

By
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!
