Pink and purple galaxy nails

So for the alphabet challenge i did some galaxy nails and I didn't think that they went too well so I decided to do a different version of galaxy nails using a pink and purple gradient. Instead of glitters I just did white star-ish shapes. What do you think?

Striping tape nails

So for christmas then i got some striping tape and i decided that i needed to do a mani with it. I decided to use a mix of bright colours-purple, teal, mint, fuchsia and coral. I used a bronze metallic polish for the background, put the striping tape nails in a design over all my nails. Then I placed random blobs of the colours on to a sponge and dabbed it onto my nails. I peeled off the striping tape and thats it. I don't usually do designs like this very often- using techniques like sponging- and i think i will do them more often as I am quite happy with the result. What do you think? By the way, as I didn't post for a while then I have a lot of christmas manis so do you guys want me to post them??

Scottie dog and plaid nails

So plaid has been around a lot this autumn/winter so i decided to do some on my nails. I chose to use a bronze-y colour with, red, white and black stripes as i really like these colours together. Also, whenever i see plaid, then i always think of scottie dogs for some reason so i decided to do one as a feature nail. What do you think?

Daisy nails

So although it's still winter, here are some spring, daisy nails1 I really like coral with the white daisies and silver glitter. I love sparkly feature nails. It's so cold at the minute, here in England but it will be spring soon! What do you think??

Autumn leopard print nails

So once I finished the alphabet nail challenge, I wasn't quite sure what to do on my nails but as it was about October, i noticed that there was a lot of burgundy things so i decided to do gold and burgundy leopard print nails. I really like these colours together but I think that they look a bit dark with the black leopard print. What do you think?

Catch up...

Ok, i know i haven't posted for ages and I don't really have an excuse but i will try and post more frequently again now!! So i have done quite a few manis since I last posted on here so i will try and post most of them. Here is the colourful zebra mani that I did for z in the alphabet challenge. I was inspired by quite a few designs from google, pinterest and various places. I chose to use quite bright colours and a nude background. These were quite easy and straightforward to do. What do you think?
