Two NOTD’s & some inspiration

I’m sat at home sick with the flu today *sniff* which is bad but also good- I get a few days away from the gym without feeling too guilty, haha! So I’m bundled up watching True Blood & Mad Men and not really up for changing my nails, but I have some two NOTD’s from the past week that I haven’t shared:

First is new favourite I definitely will be repeating when there is good light to capture the colours- Missha The Style nailpolish in GR001 (I think, their naming system is not clear) which is a very bright pastel green, topped with my trusty leopard print Konad using Essie’s Big Bag Theory. This was mostly an experiment that went well, I was swatching the Missha shade when I thought I’d give Konading with Essie a try- mine is an especially gloopy bottle. (Missha is a Korean cosmetics brand that has started branching out internationally, you can check out their website here)

Next is Essie’s Thigh High. I was going out for a girly dinner with my mum and put this on- I didn’t even get my usual fidgetiness which results in mass Konading/Decal shenanigans (haha) it’s such a beautiful, rich colour that I was perfectly content with wearing it on its own! 

And now for some WICKED nail inspiration- there’s a new nail salon opening in London called WAH nails and  they have a blog up with their unbelievable designs. It’s brilliant to see other girls passionate about nails- and they are so creative and super fun! I can’t wait to go to London and visit the salon with my bestie, I’ve gotten her addicted to nails too. I’ve already attempted some of their looks at home, I hope you girls enjoy the inspo!

Picture Tag

Hi everyone! I was tagged by the lovely Brooke from Getchanailsdid :)

 The Rules: 1. Open your 1st photo folder2. Scroll down to the 10th photo 3. Post that photo and story on your blog. 4. Tag 5 or more people.

99.99% of my photos are of this wee beastie, so I’m not surprised it was his picture I came across :)

This is my baby, Tintin, he’s a 10 year old Shih Tzu and I love him to bits. I named him after the Tintin comics I’ve been collecting for years, and there’s not much of a story behind the photo except that he was sitting in the laundry basket and I terrorize him with cameras/webcams/phone cameras all day, I love him that much! He’s at the groomers today and I’m at home with the flu, so I’m being extra mushy, *sniff*

I think Brooke tagged everyone I would have tagged already- but if you are reading and have a pet, give them a hug for me! There, that’s sort of a tag :p
