Happy World Book Day!

Hey everyone!

It's World Book Day today!

As a self-proclaimed book nerd, it feels right to do a post on this day of celebrating books, even if I did only find out about this morning because of twitter.



I remember in primary school it was always my favourite school day of the year as we got to sit around and read for most of the day, with little writing exercises and games in between. And, of course, we got to dress up as our 'favourite book character'. Basically, we got to see each other in princess and pirate and alien costumes, which yknow, is pretty funny!

Ah I miss those days! Anyway, reading basically took over my life, and as sad as it may sound, books are my friends (though I do of course have real friends too- hi guys!) and they're even my comfort blanked. Bad day? I go and read a book.

So as you can see, at the moment I'm reading through JK Rowling's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (I'm determined to finish these at some point and then have a marathon of the movies to compare/celebrate). I'm also starting A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin so I can hopefully overtake the TV show at some point in the probably very distant future. 
Though, this weekend I plan to read Patricia Briggs' new book "Dead Heat" which came out on Tuesday... as well as write two essays. Yippee! 
See you all tomorrow for a nail post though! Happy World Book Day!

Are you reading anything good at the moment? Let me know in the comments!

Cute Hearts| Breast Cancer Awareness Week

Hello! Serious topic this week, over the next 5 days, I'll be posting 5 different designs each containing a pink feature to try and raise awareness for Breast Cancer. In each post I'll include a tutorial, and a 'how you can raise awareness'. How You Can Raise Awareness Today's is so simple, all you have to do is wear a pink ribbon! Wearing the pink ribbon shows that you're supporting Breast Cancer Care, and it doesn't matter how you wear it! Monday's Design: Cute Hearts! Today's design is super easy to do, and looks so cute! Plus it's actually the first design I've thought of 100% on my own :D All you need to complete this design is 3 nail polishes! Ta-Daa!
