Nails

Oh hai

God, I'm such a weekend blogger.

Anywayz, I just painted my nails in the style of some springtime blooms. I am so fucking sick of them at the moment as I am waiting for my acrylics to grow off (I caNNOT get them taken off again, it's just too sore) so I'm trying to something a lil interesting with them.

And Yez I am still in my pajammies, and what of it? I'm a tax payer, I get to spend my Satadays in jimjams watching Cougar Town and eating Bacon Fries...I'm a disgusting creature, oh wellz :-)

I got a fresh-to-death set for going to London last weekend. I'm going to try to give up my nail habit right now but I'unno if I can do it!

I really love this set.

Shit got wild up in London. We ended up at a crazy basment party thing on Friday. I definately kissed three people (Whassuup!). I actually said to one of them 'Mike, you taste of chemicals'.

Nail Emergency

Aww shiiiiit.

Last night whilst being a drunken fruit bag I broke my nail. *Gah*

We were at my friends art show in an abandoned police station and I was trying to get through a door and suddenly I realised my nail was hangin' off BOKE

Yes, I am still in bed. White Russians and Buckfast are NOT a good combo ... who knew?

Good party though - even tho 5-0 rolled up at 4am.

My friends art show was spectacular though :-)

I got my nails on last weekend

I felt like returning to my lepoard roots with a twist. In liked them all week but tonight I re-painted because I'm going out and I want some high-octane glama

Last look.

I got my nails done two weeks ago. It is not the first time I've had me some falsies but the last time was wayyyy back in the mists of time when I was in schoolz.

First they were red

Then I did purple with a gold-ishy brush stroke over them which didn't really work

Now they are red again which I'm enjoying. They are like an old Jersey woman's nails. Which I love.

They are gettig a bit banjaxed now so Imma go this weekend and get them re-done. I'm ready for something a bit more dramatic this time - I'm thinking zebra or yellow. NOM.

Aww shit yea

I got my nails did today and I need to learn how to type in these bitches.

This fierce bitch in the pleather shorts - It's what Ima wear to my wedding.

I'm lucky I have so much time on my hands...literally

I have been spending alot of time on my nails recently. This is a mixture of my love of an interesting nail and my broke-ness which equals no new clothes but new cheap things such as accessories and nail-varnish.

I decided to give leopard a go. I got three nail-varnishes from Pennys the last day I was in Dublin (like I said...broke). They are by 'essence colour and go'...class all the way with me. I got #32 Gold Rush, #33 Just In Case and #21 Fabuless.

I put the Gold Rush on as my base colour, then randomly blobbed Just In Case at regular intervals around each nail (I did four per nail) then I carefully drew circles round the blobs in Fabuless.

I took about two hours because I had to wait so long for each step to dry, I was on the phone to my sister so it was good.

Now, it wasn't perfect but if you looked closely it looked pretty good. I enjoyed having them because people did mention them to me. I'm no nail artist but when you wear as much black as me it's a fun thing to do to interest up a look.

Nails did.

Havin' fun, doin' nails

I was watching online tutorials for stuff and I saw one for 'Half-Moon' manicures by Jennifer on The Looks for Less and I decided 'why the hellz not?' I'm sitting here in front of my computer checking PsycInfo for stuff anyway so this is what happened.

First I painted my nailz white

I think that my first problem happened at this stage - if you are going to paint your nail and then paint another colour over it, it needs to be a smooth finish, so you need to use a good quality nailvarnish. I am not picky so the white nailvarnish I used was one I bought from Poundland (not joking). It's 'New York Colour' in 'French White'. It's ok, but you do need about eighty layers for it to be proper white.

The I put on the little reinforcer circles - good call Jennifer! She was less wasteful than me and actually cut them in half so as not to waste any. I couldn't be bothered so I just slapped them on any old way (*shameful*) and painted my nails!

Here came my next problem...placing them. How far up the nail do you go? How much do you leave white? My hands don't really match. As I said though, I'm kinda of a shambolic bitch. I painted my nails the cuuutest colour I have. It's Rimmel (obvs, most of my nailvarnish is Rimmel) 60 seconds in 409 Coral Crush. Mmm Mmm Mmm!

So here is the finsihed product!

If you look closely they are very shabbily done but as I said I'm a shabby girl so I really liked them! I also usually have just chipped block colour on them so it was a nice change! All evening I was staring at my nails, lovin' it!

I'm loving online tutorials right now. I was looking at ones for Victory Rolls, I feel like they're going to be vair difficult (even though all the videos are like 2 minutes long - lying bitches). I didn't bother doing my hair today but I think I'll give it a go tomorrow.

For now, get it bucked.

Stuff I've bought recently

I bought this bump-it in a Pound Stretcher at home, well I say I bought it but my Mum, Big Una actually bought it and I gave her a fiver. Oh the shame of not being able to afford a good-hair-device that costs £9.99

I tried to use it last night, but as usual with all my fake hair implements, I realised I would just take it out after one pint so I put it away and told myself 'I'll wear it the next time' (I have a fake fringe I have still not worn because I'll wear it the next time).

Some nice nail-varnishes. Orange is my third favourite colour after gold and coral so Im excited about that. The pink Star Gazer stuff is unreal. Nums.

The Star Gazer stuff is my homage to Snookie. I wore it last night, fingers and toes and felt Jersalicious. I always feel Jersalicious though.

Ok, so I didn't techincally buy this, I found it downstairs and I've decided Im going to keep it.

I've never read any Sparks books, they sound like a pile o' shite but I'm in the mood right now for a weepie. It better get my juices flowing. I watched the Notebook for the first time at Easter with my sisters. They're a hot couple, it's a pity they get old. Actually, thats an idea for a post - the collected works of Nicholas Sparks. Hmm...I'll get on that.

This is the last thing I bought, well, the remains of it. Abrakebabra's quesadilla! My flattie and I went to Abras after 'the club' (in Lil Wayne voice) last night. It was immense but it tasted even better this morning, washed down with a cold milk. Huzzah for fast food!

I've just realised I'm a total minger. Ah well. I have pictures of me and my sister in Croatia last summer eating burritos and drinking wine in bed. FTW!

Theres nothing like a good coloured bra to keep you in cheerful mood. So I bought two coral bras from Pennys, noice! Well, Big Una bought me one of them.

I have had about 8 coral bras over the years but I really like a flash of coral at a shoulder.  Yes, this does look gigantic. Maybe I will make an umbrella out of a cup.

The stuff I've bought recently looks a bit frivolous, to be honest. I should have bought a dictionary or graph paper.
