    Stamping Plate Harunouta L034 Review – Born Pretty Store

    Yay, Sneaky WiFi! Thankfully I can lob on long enough to post this overdue snippet to Instagram and maybe schedule this post if the connections holds out. What a score 🙂 It’s so hard not being connected, as I need access to do basic things, so it’s not entirely ideal. CAN’T WAIT til things settle & I have proper net access

    Madam Glam Blink – ONE STEP Gel Polish Swatch

    I adore this dusty shade of grape. Read on for a review! Swatch time! A preview of the polish that I will be using in the next #31DC2017 #nailartchallenge Meet Blink from Madam Glam. This dusty shade of grape is part of the One-Step Gel range – meaning it incorporates the base and top coats into the colour gel = simpler application.

    31DC2017 Day 29: Supernatural – Dark Side

    Why it’s almost the end of the #31DC2017 (oh thank god!) and we’ve hit the 29th’s Inspired by Supernatural prompt.   I went with hand-painted symbols inspired by illustrated shadow-side imagery, the kind related to magic glyphs & tarot ✨ Look Ma, it’s matte! Who doesn’t love how sexy matte nails look? The base is Blink one-step gel from @madam_glam which you can see

    31DC2017 Day 28: A Flag – A Li’l Bit British

    My least favourite prompt in the #31DC2017 is the Flag one. Every year. It is the least inspiring yet I’ve never done a ‘serious’ flag, like for realsies. Didn’t entirely do that this year either, but incorporated the British Flag into a mani with some metallic decals I had on hand.     I did some matte stamping with Plate BP-L078 from @bornprettystore (use

    31DC2017 Day 25: Fashion – Haute Punk

    Check out the amazeballs hybrid metallic polish, Losing Control from Madam Glam in the previous post. I’ve used it as the base for one of my favourite prompts in the 31 Day Challenge, the Inspired By Fashion prompt. I did Haute Punk – which is an Haute Couture x Punk style mashup.

    31DC2017 Day 24: A Book – On The Road

    Day 24 of the 31 Day Challenge prompt is: A Book – I had done ‘On The Road’ by Jack Kerouac. Mainly because I want need a holiday and can’t have one. It’s definitely not a want, and more of a need. Yes, really. So luckily I have a good imagination haha! Doesn’t  fully compare, but beats staring at nothingness…

    31DC2017 Day 23: A Movie – Steel Magnolias

    Like a Bride who’s fashionably late, running a little behind with the #31DC2017 movie prompt, so you get a dodgy pic from the vault, on poor Cindy no less. Also leaving me to match a movie to the mani rather than the other way around.   A double up challenge day today. 31DC Inspired by a Movie combined with the Metallic Chrome
