Barry M Peach Melba

After noticing the gorgeous Barry M Nail Paint, Peach Melba in Boots the other day I've been dying to try it out and last night was the night. It's quite strange but recently I've gone nail polish free which is unusual for me so it felt nice having bright, colourful nails again. I love them. The application was perfect and after only two coats I was left with a bold opaque colour. It has worn slightly during the day which is to be expected really as I have been a busy bee, but I think they will still look fine for a few more days. 

I've been a huge fan of accent nails for quite some time but instead of choosing a different colour (because I love this one so much!) I opted for polkadots which I am equally obsessed with. I've had so many compliments at work today so I think Barry M's sales will have increased slightly once again. I think this has got to be my new favourite summer colour. 

What nail varnish are you currently sporting?

NOTD: I've 'Bee'-n Buzzy

I've had a thing about nail art recently. I think it's because my nails are long and in such good condition recently, which then means I have the urge to paint them all sorts of pretty colours with funky colours. Plus I'm off work at the moment with no wedding to plan for, which means I have more time on my hands. Yeay! I love my job and I loved my wedding, but it's nice not to think about them for a while. 

Here's my latest creation. When I say my creation I mean that I painted them, but the inspiration came from here. I saw this video sometime last year and for some reason today it popped into my head. I love them. She explains how to do them so much better than I ever could. Though the video I've linked must have been re-uploaded because I'm positive I saw this last year, but this video is dated March 2011. Very odd. Anyway...

 I love bumble bees and I love how much they make me think of summer. 

Speak Soon,

Nails: Polkadot Nails

Last night I finally took off my Wedding Nail Varnish which was a little sad. To be fair it was chipping, and rightly so as I did paint them the morning of the wedding without a base or top coat. So as it was a hard and sad task... haha... I decided to go for some uplifting nails. And I love them. 

At fist I wanted spotty nails, because who doesn't love polkadot nails? But they also created a fun night in with the husband. To me they remind me of Super Mario's Yoshi Eggs. But Mike's first reaction was SuperTed. My response to this was a very blank face indeed. I googled it. 

Katie, "Michael how on earth do my nails remind you of SuperTed?"

Mike, "Type in SuperTed sidekick" 

Katie," hahaha"

We then proceeded to watch episode after episode of SuperTed on youtube. I love it. We laughed so much. His sidekick is so funny. Who knew that painting your nails could create so much fun? haha. (in fact now I've told Michael what I'm writing, he's singing the theme tune. I love this man.)

Speak Soon,

Katie
