Week in pictures!

So, I thought I'd do another of these sorts of posts as I am lacking inspiration on the nail side of things at the minute. I've had a lovely week and done so much that I would like to share with you (which is amazing considering I've worked for most of it!).


It was my birthday last week and I received this enormous box of maltesers from a girl at work. She knows how to make me happy!


This little guy was waiting outside my front door for me when I got home one evening! He was very scared but so cute!


I went to Rutland Water nature reserve last weekend. It was so nice to just have a walk around in the sunshine and I adore being next to the water :)


I work in a pre-school so saying goodbye to my little ones was difficult! Made easier by the copious amounts of chocolate their parents gave me though! I'd never seen these before but they are delicious!


Another shot from Rutland Water of some striped caterpillars.


Me and my housemate's had strawberries and cream in the garden one evening as the weather is so nice, it was lovely!


The sky looked incredible!

What have you been up to this week?

It's Summer!!

Hey guys, been a while again! I have decided to share my summer nails with you. They aren't really very different to last years 'standard' summer nails, and I definitely need to begin to branch out when it comes to thinking of new designs. 

I love this colour, however. It's a scented Revlon shade that smells like mango's. And funnily enough is named "Mad About Mango". 


If any of you could link me to some fun summer nail designs then comment below!!

Essie - Spin The Bottle

Well, it's official. I have a new favourite nude polish. I don't often wear nudes as I find they look a bit weird on my skin tone. However, the new offering in Essie's hide & go chic collection really stood out to me so I picked it up to give it a try! 

It's the best nude I have used and, unlike other nudes, doesn't make my skin tone look yellow.



The only negative I have to say about this polish is the consistency of it. It's quite hard to work with which is unusual for an Essie polish. It took 3 careful coats and even then it was running on to my cuticles. 

Overall, I love this colour! What's your favourite nude? Should I add glitter to this?
