3rd time lucky !

Hiiiii X Time to nail it on the head haha :D ! Okay, so i have a bit of a thing for unusual / long / acrylic nails & i thought i should maybe write a little post for all you beauty bloggers who maybe want ideas, as im constantly looking for inspiration for when i next go to get my nails done ! I usually go to USA nails in glasgow city centre they are slowly developing a chain & basically they are small simple salons with little chinese men who are AMAZING at acrylic tips , manis & pedi etc i can get a full set for £25 & that includes soakg old tips off as well (which btw i highly recommend if you want to prevent damage to your own nails it makes such a difference instead of literally just pulling & snapping them off) :) There are probably little nail salons like this all over as i managed ot hunt one down when i was last in london & it was super duper sinilar to whats in Glasvegas, i  really dont see the point in paying excess amounts of money & going to white aproned girls type of places who never really venture past the french maicured look for with nails, becuase i always go with a picture in my head of what i want my nails to look like & USA nails & other little similar salons ALWAYS carry out any weird requests i have exactly as i pictured :) ! My ultimate nail crush is definitely Rihanna as if she isnt looking fab enough these days, i can always be sure she has something unsual & really out there going on with her nails !


This is for the Drake & Rihanna video & i can remember the 1st time seeing it & thinking Yesss she has those pointy stiletto nails & in luminous orange ! wow ! I tried this out & it looked sooo lovely with a tan & loads of shiny topcoat definitely one for summer ! even on toes for people who might think bright nails on hands are a bit much for everyday :)


This shape is called Stiletto it isnt really that normal but i love that because people always comment or notice on it as the shape is mostly square or round for nails usually ! :) this nude / mink color is SO in right now & I am always reading in magazines about how it works wonders if your hands are looking a bit pale & washed out & it elongates your fingers & i think it looks really classy & expensive X


Again Rihanna rocking a really unusal colour powder blue isnt one i would usually think of but i cant wait to try it out :) !


I am going to go & get my tips off tomorrow & will maybe post a photo of my new ones they are currently a pink tip with loadsssss of a really sparkly glitter I'm thinking stiletto shape, really long as im not too much of a fan of short nails & maybe glitter so they look like the night sky ! i am SO weird !! :D

second glance ;)

Hello gorgeous bloggers <3 hope everyone is having a good week, the weeekend is nearly here yet again ! I honestly feel like I wait all week for a long lie then wake up at the crack of dawn come the weekend! Still though c'mon saturday & ur absent alarm clock ;)
It has came to my attention all the blogs i have  been admiring all seem to have snaps & photos of cute outfits or food or views from trips etc & i thought i should post some to maybe make my blog more interesting ! (maybe means definitely ) i am definitely a snap happy girl  :)


These photos are from pre night outness recently with me & a friend taking some outfit snaps & having a little cheeky vodka or four  before or taxi arrived ! Here I am with my little lhaso apso Lyla, after she suffered an AWFUL haircut X i am wearing a little feathery white Mango (MNG) shrug which i got in the january sales, over a vintage duck egg blue sequin top from a totally amazing little vintage shop in Glasgow called Mr Bens &  myshoes from soyoushoes.com ! I think they are a funky little twist on the Topshop suede wedges which were out over AW10 in beige & black i noticed a lot of girls were wearing :) X


These photos are from another night out in Leeds with some friends around new year time :) Again i have  a red sequin top & little black number from Mr Bens. My tutu was even longer to begin with but i cut it up & used what was left to make a really funky little scarf & vivienne westy shoes which i managed to blag from eBay for £48 Brand new in their box ! <3

absolute newbie !

Hey hi hiya ! Okay so I'm totally new to the little blogging world & have no idea where to start, but hopefully this is the start of something special <3 I have spent my weekend all cosied up adoring the clock change , hello there summer (!) and browsing some pretty awesome fashion pages from fellow bloggers & reading up on this new exciting world. I have sort of heard of blogs before but not until now have i actually looked into it & thus led to me creating my own. I have - as cheesy as it sounds & I feel most young girls & gays would say who are into shopping & looking good - a passion for fashion & am desperate for a career in the industry i love, so to begin with i was intentionally seeking out college or university courses which would help me to pursue my dream. Yet now, I have decided in the meantime I think I will enjoy blogging much more than a classroom & instead plan to use my blog to post about exciting new buys or purchases I've made which make me happy & I'm sure other fashion bunnies will enjoy, also depending on my mood i will occasionally post about music & celeb gossip anything that tickles my pckle at the time of typing really ! I apologise now for any punctuation or typographical errors I have made, but from what i can gather blogging should be fun & a leisurely read for my audience & where's the fun in looking out for commas !? Fingies crossed if bloggers with much more experience than myself are reading this then feel free (pleaseeeee !) to leave a comment with tips, I have loads of questions such as; where to begin it really seems so confusing ? how do you get your page to look so great ? ...how do you find other blogs to read so far google & my imagination has helped me but isn't there other ways ? Also how do you get your blog noticed, is it just a case of commenting & hoping others will have a look on your page & does it really grow from there ? I cant think of anymore questions just now & i have definitely rambled on & on & on ..... ! Thankyou for looking :) Much lovee *
