Easy Splatter Nails

Happy Tuesday

Splatter nails have been on my to-do list for as long as I can remember. I absolutely love how they look and really admire other nail bloggers gorgeous pictures and colour choices. I just cant face the clean up that would be needed after blowing nail polish through a straw in the hope that some of it lands on your nail. Time to cheat and break out the stamping plates...

Fugly Green with Abstract Dots

Good evening loves

Tonight I am showing you what I would call a marmite polish. You will either love it or hate it. I paired it with my abstract dotted nails from a few weeks ago to try and break the haters in gently :))

Cancun with an Opal Accent

Good evening lovelies

At last I hear you cry! Well the lovely Samantha at least. It seems I have been missed and that was enough to inspire me to try much harder with my blog. My absence can be explained quite simply and you nail lovelies will no doubt sympathise... bad breakage (real bad), nasty cut right across my cuticles (stupid kitchen door handle) and life (bad then good then busy!). Enough talking... let the green nails do the talking.

Double Swatch: Sally Hansen: Straw-ready and S-teal a Base

Happy Wednesday

I hope you week has been full of fun so far? Mine is flying by a little too quickly! I have something on every night and am crazy busy at work too. I dont  mind this week going quickly though as I am really looking forward to the weekend. It is the fabulous Miss Bunn's 30th bday and she is having a 1920's themed party :)

Swatch: Barry M Matte: Cancun

Good evening lovelies

Time for a quick swatch post tonight. It might be quick but its still very beautiful. As you know I love all things green and this polish might just be my most perfect shade... EVER!

Inspired By: Green Dress

Hi lovelies

Tonight I am showing you more green! As I was admiring my beautiful Kiwi green nails I suddenly remembered a dress I bought last summer but never got around to wearing and wondered if this green might be the perfect match! I am pleased to report it is so of course I had to create nails that were Inspired By my green floral dress :-)

Swatch: Barry M Gelly: Kiwi

Happy Monday loves

What a weekend! I was lucky enough to have a four day weekend and took full advantage of not being in the office! Me and the doggies did lots of nice walks and ball games over the field, little sis and I spent lots of time doing nails and drinking wine and on Sunday we went to a one day festival! The headlining act was McBusted but before they came out we spent several hours enjoying Scouting For Girls (I love them!), Five and the Backstreet Boys! Talk about retro boybands :-). A fantastic time was had by all!!

Peacock Nails: Green and Navy

Happy Thursday

So these might be some of my favourite nails... for a long time... maybe even the whole of this year!

I love green, I love feathers and I am a little bit back in love with stamping...

Swatch; Lime Basil: Revlon Parfumerie

Hi Loves

After my lovely experience with Ginger Melon from the Revlon Parfumerie collection I just had to also try out Lime Basil from the same collection.

Glitter Polka Dots

Good evening lovelies

Many of you will know that one of my favourite colour combinations is green and pink. I turn to it time and time again and never tire of it.. Tonight is no exception :-)

Swatch: Clover by Fearne

Happy Sunday :-)

I just love knowing that it is a bank holiday so I can turn my alarm off for tomorrow morning and stay up a little bit later tonight :-). Today I have been dog sitting for my Mum's beagle, Ben. I managed to successfully take all three dogs on two very nice walks and even as I type Ben is snoring (loudly) next to my feet. Happy and content little doggy pack.

Just a quick but pretty swatch to show you tonight...

Happy Easter: Easter Nails

Happy Easter!

Did you have chocolate for breakfast? :-)

I have a busy day today as I have my sisters two dogs over to play with my two dogs. It is very distracting having four beautiful dogs to run around and play outside with so my list of jobs to be done around the house will just have to wait!

Here are my Easter nails...

Swatch: Barry M Aquarium: Pacific and Mermaid

Good evening lovelies

I have to say the Barry M Aquarium collection has been my favourite new release of the year so far. Tonight I am showing you two of the six polishes from the collection and I am absolutely smitten!

Christmas Nails: Baubles

Good evening lovelies

Time for installment two of... Christmas Nails! I love doing themed nail art and there really is no better theme than Christmas!

Yesterday I showed you just the swatch of Absinthe, the gorgeous green from the Velvet Goth collection, and today I will show you just perfect it is as a base for baubles :-)

Swatch: Velvet Goth: Absinthe

Hey lovelies

I just cant resist a green and glitter combination so when Mr LiPP bought me this stunning green from the Velvet Goth collection I couldn't wait to try it out.

This is Absinthe...

Swatch: Orly Sparkling Garbage

Good evening :-)

I have been so excited to try out this polish so when I finally got my hands on it at the weekend I just knew it would jump to the top of my swatch queue :-)

Pink and Green Filigree: Favourite Nails

Happy Friday!

Its the weekend and I cannot wait. I mentioned earlier in the week that I have a lot planned and I am really looking forward to being busy in such great company. Tonight I am going to a beauty party with my sister and our best friends. There is no doubt I will enjoy an evening of testing out the latest make up samples, catching up with friends and hopefully getting a sneaky peek of any new polish collections that are yet to hit the shelves :-)

Here are my nails for the night which just so happen to be some of my favourites for a while...

Bright Green on Metallic Green Nails

Happy Wednesday!

Can you believe its the middle of the week already? Another busy week for me so time will fly by and I am glad as I have lots to look forward to at the weekend. A beauty party with all my girlfriends, a marathon DVD and sleep over night with my sister and as much time with my lovely husband as is possible to fit into one weekend!

Here is how I wore my beautiful metallic green polish from last nights swatch pictures...
