Nail Varnish / Catch up!

Hello everyone! It feels like it's been forever since I last posted! I didn't post of Friday because It was the first night I literally had nothing to do: no revision, no homework. Just relaxing and looking forward to having this next week off. Also, I was ill with a typical cold so I had to take a break, sorry!

Ok well, I have decided that this 'Music Monday' thing isn't going too well! I have missed about 3 weeks of it and if i'm honest, I don't enjoy writing them as if you put a hobby into a schedule, it turns into a job, and because I procrastinate that means it's another thing to put off! So I might just post about my favourite songs when I feel that there are songs that need to be recognised. 
Now that's out of the way, lets get on with the post!

If you have read some of my previous posts, you would know that I completely feel in love with the 'Kelly Brook' Nail polish range (you can read about it here) and today when I went on a cheeky shopping trip, I finally found them in Newlook, right on the bottom shelf!

This is pobably the nicest nail polish I own! It's such a nice summery colour and just generally makes me happy. It is a really rich peach colour, however leaning more towards orange than pink. Obviously, because it's peach it's called 'Peach Pop" which is a cute name for a cute colour. My friend (Holly) also bought a Kelly Brook Nail polish which happened to be 'Pretty n' Pink' and it was a really nice bubblegum pink if you're interested.(I think I might be into Peach this month seeing as I also bought a peach top)
I am aware that you can get a peach colour in pretty much every nail polish range, but I promise you this is like no other, it's the prettiest peach there is :)
Well I hope you enjoyed this and I shall speak to you soon!

Nails Painted

Hello Everyone! I just thought I'd do a quick post to show you my nails! That sound slightly weird but I have painted them. This is a privilege for me as we're not aloud painted nails at my school (frankly I don't see how they're distracting but whatever, my school is basically a prison so they might as well go the whole way and announce that they're taking in criminals) So yeah, here are my nails for you nail lovers! :) 
I decided to do the ol' claw around the nail polish to show what I used but instead it looks really dramatic like I'm about to run off and grabbed my most prized possession in the mad panic. 
A close up of my fingers for anyone who wanted one. 





 So, I did three coats to get this look, I made it very natural as I wasn't really in the mood for something bright (Also because I recently bought a new top that's pink and as I shall obviously be wearing it a lot, I decided to match it to my nails. I am smart you know) First I used the base layer, which was the pale pink. This nail vanish came in a pack so it has no name, but you could easily get the same colour with any other pale pink nail varnish. I then reapplied this on top to get a stronger colour and then let this to dry. (It sounds like I'm giving you a tutorial on how to paint nails) Then I used Rimmel London's Disco Ball 500 as a top layer, which just made it a little more eye catching. 
That's it really, plain and simple. As I have two weeks off, you can expect a lot more of these nail tutorials or whatever you call them! :) 
Do you like me doing these sort of posts?
Just experimenting :)
