GoT: House Stark

Hey everyone!

The Fandoms are continuing to 'Strike Back' today, and House Stark is leading the battle in Game of Thrones!

I think the Starks are my favourite house in the GoT universe, so it seemed like a good place to start for the second half of the Game of Thrones manis- the Houses!



To 'celebrate' the Starks, I started off with a base of white (Morgan Taylor's 'All White Now') and sponged on a green-grey colour (Nicole by OPI's 'Goodbye Shoes') in a circle-ish motion to leave some white visible.


On my thumb and pinkie I started with the grey and sponged the white on the tips.



I then used the pen-like end of my black striper (Andrea Fulerton's Dot & Flick Nail Art) to draw on the paw prints (of a dire wolf) on my index and ring fingers, and an "S" for Stark on my middle finger! 



I'm really chuffed with how the paw prints turned out, though the S did smudge a little. However I do kinda like it like this, it adds to the Game of Thrones' style!


I'm also loving the colour of this grey polish, it has a very unique amount green/blue in it and will be a great colour for the Winter months. 


So I hope you like this Stark mani, and will support House Stark with me throughout this season of GoT! If you're supporting a different house though tell me which in the comments below! ;)

See you on Friday, where I will hopefully show you my ball nails! That's right... I'm going to a ball on Friday! I'm so excited :D See you then!

"Where did all my money go!?"

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!

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

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...
