Sugar Spun Valentine's Day Nails + Tutorial

Hello everyone!

If you've been following my blog for a while, you may remember these valentine's day nails I did about 2 years ago. I loved these nails so much and wanted to do a tutorial for them this year :) I was also feeling a bit uninspired this year and couldn't come up with a design I was happy with. So when in doubt go back to what you know! Keep reading for the tutorial!

Heartbeat Nails

So like I said in my last post, even though everyone is doing autumnal manicures, I'm not done with summer yet! This is the last summery design I have left to post before I'll move on to nails more suited to this time of year!

5 Minute Seaside Dotticure!

Hello everyone!

Even though it's the end of summer, I still have a few summery nail designs left to post so that's what I'll be doing over this next week. The first design I have to show you was inspired by Lucy's Stash. I've seen Lucy do amazing dotticure designs and I opted for something simpler but still really pretty!

WNAC2015: Magenta and Navy

Hello everyone!

So this weeks WNAC design is more than a week late but here it is. The prompt was Magenta and Navy. It didn't turn out as summery as I would have liked mainly because my navy blue polish is so dark it looks almost black in the photos!

WNAC2015: Lemon and Cherry

Hello everyone!

This month I'm taking part in the Weekly Nail Art Challenge (WNAC) 2015! This challenge was started by @missbellatracey, @simplynailogical and @kgrdnr on Instagram. It's been ages since I last took part in a challenge and I really enjoy them so decided it was time to have another go! I like that this challenge is weekly - I don't think I could manage more than that!

The theme for this month is 'summer' and there are four prompts that we have to use to create a summer design. The first prompt is 'lemon and cherry' and below is the design I created.

Night Time Palm Tree Nails

Hello everyone!

You've probably seen palm tree nails before with the classic sunset gradient and black silhouette of the palm trees. I decided to put a twist on this and opted for a blue ombre background to look like the night sky and some white palm trees (who knows why they're white? Bioluminescent palm trees maybe...)
