Day 15: Delicate Print

Here we are at the halfway point and I'm still loving the challenge!

A friend of mine visited Canada this month and I asked her to pick me up a bottle of Sally Hansen Whirlwind White. Since I saw it on Marta's blog here, I've had a lemming for it and Marta reminded me to ask my friend to grab me a bottle. So now I finally have a really, really good white stamping polish and it really is a weight off my shoulders!

Day 14: Flowers

I have something very simple for you guys today... I used a dotting tool to create this simple flower print and I think it turned out really pretty. There's definitely a retro, 60's vibe going on with this mani.

Day 13: Animal Print

Who doesn't love a good animal print nail huh? This combination of colour and stamping is the one I used to wear the most before I started blogging, but it's been a long time since I wore it. I was going to try something more adventurous today, like freehanding a leopard print, but laziness took over and I pulled out my stamping plates!

Day 12: Stripes

I was stuck for a long time trying to come up with a design for Day 12, then I remembered this Wah Nails design and set about picking colours. Blue and pink aren't two colours I would normally pair but these two neon shades look absolutely eye-popping next to each other. I'll definitely be trying this colour combination again!

Day 11: Polka Dot Nails

Polka dots are so fun and easy and yet they make your nails look completely amazing!
When I first got my dotting tools I hated using them and was just never happy with my results but after a bit of practice, I absolutely love them and they're SO versatile. I use them for all kinds of nail art, not just dots.

Today's nails are in my favouritest colour ever - purple, purple and more purple!

Life Happens.. Roll With It & Let It Be...

Drake - Take Care (feat. Nicki Minaj) Lyrics[Nicki Minaj]I fly with the stars in the skiesI am no longer trying to surviveI believe that life is a prizeBut to live doesn't mean you're aliveDon't worry bout me and who I fireI get what I desire it's my empireAnd yes I call the shots I am the umpireI sprinkle holy water upon a vampire, vampireAnd this very moment I'm kingThis very moment I slay
