A Week in Pictures

So, I've not done one of these before, but I thought it'd be a nice little post.

It started off a little bit sad, and angry, well, no, a lot sad and angry, and one of my best mates was home for the weekend and he took it upon himself to pop round and bring some flavoured vodka and cheer me up.
What a guy. Seriously, any lovely ladies out there? He's a total babe! So yeah, he made me feel much, much better by making me laugh and making me listen to horrific music.

Then the day after that was my mates birthday night out, which was...a very, very weird night.

I've done a fair bit of cooking and baking this week too!

Also visited one of my bestest in her new flat...and got a sneaky Dominos.....

Then on Saturday, I went out for a birthday do-over with my friend because the last one was odd....I also wore pink....I've never worn pink before.

Also got back into running this week to try get back in shape.....I'm trying, I'm trying.

Might do one of these a week?

Glittery Sky Nails!!

I just called them 'glittery sky nails' because they remind me of a scene/background we used to use for our nativity plays in primary school!!

This is my first attempt at a glitter kind of fade look. Mainly because I have no patience waiting for my nails to dry and because as much as I love glitter, I'm so lazy and just pick it off because it's so much effort to take off properly!

I decided I wanted one like a night sky so I opted for:

Barry M Silver Foil Effect - Hara Pixie - China Glaze Nova - OPI Russian Navy

First I painted my nails with Nail Envy by OPI - definitely worth the money!! - then I did two coats of Russian Navy.

Then I used the Barry M to paint a thin line along the very tip of my nails with barely any polish on the brush and then blurred the line a little , I didn't want it too visible but it was either that or use 50 coats of glitter to get my desired effect and as I said, I'm super impatient!

After that I kind of made a thick and lumpy line of the silver Hara glitter by holding the brush vertically and scraping it onto my nails ( if that makes sense?) and then flattened it out a little with the brush and dragged some of it towards the middle of my nail.

Then when that was dry, I did a reeeeally thin layer of the China Glaze over the whole of each nail because I love that it is super sparkly and it really catches the light!!

Hope you like them!! :)
