Window Shopping Wednesdays #2 …. on a Thursday

Well, I do recall saying when I wrote the first Window Shopping Wednesday post (all of last week) that I might slip a bit on deadlines.....and what do you know, here is #WSW2 on a Thursday! To be fair, yesterday was the nail art challenge so I'll excuse myself for being a bit late :-)…

January Nail Art Challenge: Match OOTD

Evening everyone! I hope you're all having a good week. This week has been absolutely CRAZY at work, and it's only Wednesday! Bring on Friday night..... Today's Nail Art Challenge was supposed to be a match to your outfit of the day. However, due to aforementioned work craziness, I didn't quite get the chance to…

January Nail Art Challenge: Studs

Hello and Happy Burns Night everyone! I hope you've all had a nice relaxed weekend?! I certainly have.... I haven't done very much at all! Save for a quick run this morning I have barely left the house, and as I write this I am sat in front of the nice cosy fire thinking about…

January Nail Art Challenge: Favourite Design

The January Nail Art Challenge is nearing it's close; only 4 more posts to go! Today's challenge was to create your favourite design. I found it impossible to pick an absolute favourite as there are so many to choose from; so I've gone for a design that I've admired from afar for a long time…

Window Shopping Wednesdays #1

I am a little bit of a shopping addict. I don't generally go out and spend loads of money in a big spree, I'm more a little and often spender that doesn't realise how much she's spending.... the thing is though, it all tends to add up to quite a lot. Now that we have…

January Nail Art Challenge: Favourite Colour

Today's nail art challenge was a simple one: pick your favourite colour. I've got a wide and varied range of nail varnishes to choose from, but it turned out to be quite an easy selection. I may dabble in the pinks and the blues and the greens; but ultimately when I want a pick-me-up I…

Films and Cocktails

Ahhh, Sunday. The day of the week reserved for sitting around in your pyjamas, drinking tea and keeping warm by the fire (as I am now). Bliss 🙂 Yesterday we had a bit of a date afternoon - 'Saturdate' as it has been coined in our house. I know, I know - we're too cool.…

January Nail Art Challenge: Gradient

Happy Saturday peoples of the world and WordPress! The weekend is upon us once again! *Does little happy dance* This week has been a bit of a mental one at work. Couple that with two 5.20a.m. starts for gym classes (yes, I am as surprised as you are) I was very excited to be switching…

January Nail Art Challenge: A New Technique

Another day, another January Nail Art Challenge! Today's challenge was a 'new technique'. When I first got home I had planned to attempt a nice gradient look; however when I gave it a go it didn't quite work out... I think the sponges I bought were a bit too shiny! So, as a last minute…

January Nail Art Challenge: Re-Creaction

Well well well - how on earth is it Sunday evening already?! I hope you've all had a lovely weekend! I spent yesterday wedding dress shopping (eeek!) and today was spent running in circles around a muddy field - the Durham Cathedral Cross Country Relays! This evening has been spent running around doing housework and…
