FFF and Short Nails

No I am not swearing ..... Freebie Fashion Fawn!

My DH was going to Sainsbury's this weekend and I just happened to mention that if he saw InStyle magazine, would he be nice enough to buy one...or two... or even all three!  He got me all three and this is one of the colours that came free with it. You can also get it (or all three) in the June issue of InStyle Magazine.  It was lovely to apply and opaque in two.  You may also notice I CUT down my nails, on my RH they were splitting and chipping and so I just cut them all to the same size.  Hopefully they will soon start growing again.

This is not at all true to colour - REASON mega strong sunshine! :o)

 

Then for a bit of fun I added some flowers using my ever trustworthy black nail polish by Honeypot Cosmetics and dotting tool.  To add a bit of sparkle a rhinestone in the middle.

OPI - Shorts Story

5 MAY 2011
This is another one of my hundreds of un-worn lacquers!  I don't know why, perhaps because I keep buying new ones!  But I thought after my black nails I needed a bit of a lift, especially as the weather has been so nice.  So this is Shorts Story from the OPI Bright Pair Collection. It is a bright and vibrant creme colour.  It is opaque in two coats which is a must especially when applying lying in bed and with only a side bed light on!  Still not bad, but I won't apply like that again as I smudged two of my nails!  But oh, what a lovely colour.  I have also just noticed how my nails have grown in just two weeks, wow.  Must be the lovely sunshine we are getting at the moment.

For a bit of fun, using my sticky back plastic and my lovely black nail polish by Honeypot Cosmetics, I applied a little nail art on my ring finger. 

China Glaze - Black Diamond

2 MAY 2011
I wore this just over a week ago.  This is Black Diamond by China Glaze, sorry for the bad pics, I forgot to take photos straight away, and been at work a few days and you can see the tip wear!  Anyway, this is a gorgeous colour, opaque in two coats and as you can see it is not a true black.  It has a blue/teal shimmer to it, love it.

APRIL CATCH-UP

I have not been on for a while, kids, life, half term, back to work etc got in the way.  I did however manage to do my nails just not enough time to load on here.  So this is just a re-cap of what I wore in April.

12 APRIL 2011
This is OPI Give me the Moon.  A nice light shade and great application.

18 APRIL 2011
China Glaze - Thistle.  We went to the London Aquarium today, it was a treat for my daughter as it was her 17th yesterday and that is what she wanted to do!  I have also filed my nails down a little, not too short but not long either!

24 APRIL 2011
LA Girl - Light Show. A bright vibrant orange.  I did a little nail art with the dots here, they come out white, but in actual fact they are a pale blue, just my camera refusing to pick up the colour!

27 APRIL 2011
Zoya - Felina.  An oldie that I have had for years but I don't think I have ever worn it!  So here it is.

Just noticed in this last Zoya set of pictures, my cuticles are just awful.  Did I mention I have been helping re-decorate my sons bedroom?  Maybe that is why.  Or it could be that I have been neglecting them, I must start applying my cuticle oil as often as possible.

Nail Dis-colouration!

11 April 2011
Just wanted to show how awful the nail discolouration of my nails is.  They have been like this for a few weeks now.  I have tried all sorts of ways to whiten or clean them up but to no avail.  Oh well, just as well they get dressed or they would look awful naked :o)
