More Clouds.

Here are two more mani's I did inspired by Jane at Nailside.

OPI Big Apple Red, You Don't Know Jacques and Russian Navy



CG Blue Year's Eve, OPI Alpine Snow, OPI Catch Me In Your Net.
I really love these cloud mani's. So easy and a great way to try out more than one polish at a time.

I Got It. Yay

It's not very often that a polish jumps straight into number one spot for it's respective colour. But that is what happened as soon as I put this one on.

China Glaze - Ruby Pumps. An oldie but definately a goodie. Best red ever! And to think I put off buying it because I had other red glitters. Silly me

Weekend nails.

These are the nails I wore on the weekend to watch a football match between Melbourne Hart and Brisbane Roar. Was an entertaining match but unfortunately ended in a 1 all draw.

I chose these colours because Hearts team colours are red and white. Rimmel London Clouds and OPI Wocka Wocka. I used a dotting tool to create the dots

Pretty Red

Hi all, Thank you all for your comments on my previous post. I have contacted the seller and am getting a replacement. This is one of the survivors from the accident.

China Glaze Love Marilyn.

This jumped up into my favourites list as soon as it was applied.

Red and Silver glitter. How could it be bad?

Devastation then Relief.

I lost my USB that contains ALL my nail photos, and my polish database. Looked for it for days at home. Then ten minutes ago I came to my local library, and someone had handed it in here. Thank you, whoever you are. That's why I've been gone for so long.
This is the mani I wore on Christmas day.

Green - ORLY Here Comes Trouble
Red - Nubar Fire Sparkle
Silver - Color Club Magic Attraction.

It matched my christmas tree which had red and silver baubles, and was green (DUH)

First Christmas Mani

This is my first Christmas Mani.

Nubar Fire Sparkle with 1 coat of Wet 'n' Wil Give Me a Price Quote on top.

Sunny Shadows

Here is a shadowy sunlight photo of what I'm wearing right now.

China Glaze Paint The Town Red. Two coats with Nubar Diamont on top. I chose this pic because it's the closest to the colour IRL.

Also I have a confession.

Is it bad that I ordered Essence Choose Me when I already have Orly Halley's Comet, OPI Catch Me In Your Net and Zoya Charla. I definately have a problem.

I'm Back

Not that I've been anywhere, it's just really hard to get a computer at the library during scholl holidays. Should be back to normal transmissions on Monday.

I've been swatching for my database the last couple of days.

Here is an example.

This is Sally Hansen Cherry Red. An old one but probably the truest red I own.

More sad news though, Cleo, who was Custards best friend died the day after Custard did. We were expecting it because they were alsways within 2 centimetres of each other, and they were both very old but still quite sad. At least they're together though.

More Pretty Crackles...And my photo course homework

At least this time I remember what polishes I used.

This is Orly Retro Red from the Plastx collection topped with China Glaze Oxidised Aqua.

Also one of my pics for my photography course.

Classy except for the Clean - Up

Please excuse the really bad clean up on these, I can't explain why, apparently the cleaning part of my brain is still on holidays.

This is Revlon Fire Fox, which is really a Matte Suede, with Konad Special Black stamped on the top. Didn't notice the plate number sorry.

On another note, my tax time purchases have started arriving. I'm slightly embarrased at the amount. Should I wait till everything has come and do a big haul post. Ot do little haul post as the stuff comes in. I'm more inclined to do the second one and have a really big finish(trust me it's big). What do you think?

Ladybirds

Yay, I can post again. It's a bit sad when Internet is down at both work and home. I've missed seeing what everyone else has been up to.
This is a mani I did with about 5 minutes to spare and I've had so many compliments on it.

This is Ulta3 Pepper Pot with polka dots in BYS Matte Blue, and SV over the top.

Don't forget to enter my competition.

Back Again

Sorry I've been away. I got quite sick and couldn't blog. Still not feeling great so here's a quick pick of my tiger mani, using BYS Matte Red, Orange, and Yellow with stamping done in Konad Special Black. Can't remember which plate it is sorry. Might be M54. The inspiration is from LemonyEmily (can't link at the moment for some reason, you can get there through my blogroll)

Strawberry DIY tranfers

Here are my Strawberry DIY transfer. It is son much fun doing these. Haven't quite got the hang of putting them on properly but I'll keep practicing.

Base - Ulta3 Blossom Fever

Strawberry -

• Rimmel Double Decker Red


• CG Starboard


• Australis Rub-A-Dub-Dub


• Ulta3 Chocolate Cake

My Sunset Mani

I used 'sponging' for this mani. So much easier than I though. Both hands only took me about 15 minutes, whereas I was expecting about an hour.

I used CG Free Love as the base coat then sponged Nubar Bronzo the Nuber Oro. Topped off with two coats of SV.

Practice Glitter

For a first attempt at using dry glitter, I'm happy with this.




Used a base of CG Paint the Town Red. Then a coat of SV, the put the glitter on with a generic clear polish and topped with another two coats of SV.

Showed it to the Man who said 'it's wicked but shouldn't you have done a green one for St. Patricks Day'. If I didn't know better I would think that he read nail blogs too.
