Ruby Pumps Konadicure

Hey,

This is a very quick post to show you what I wore on my nails for a party at a friend's house on Saturday!



I used 2 coats of China Glaze's Ruby Pumps with konad special black polish and konad plate M65.







I really liked how it turned out and I got lots of comments on it!

I actually started out trying to use the musical notes from plate M73 but lets just say I need a bit more practise with that one.....! :)

As I said, just a quick post but I think the next post will be about my storage and that will be a very long one I suspect!

Hope you all had fab weekends!

Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear Red Carpet and some gabbling!

Hello!

This may be quite a long post as I feel I have a lot to talk about :)

I will start by showing you what I'm wearing on my nails at the moment -


This is one of the nail polishes that I got in a package from MagicXMaid (more about that later!) and people who have been reading my blog for a while now will know that's it's very unusual for me to wear red on my nails but I absolutely love this red! I usually put reds on and take them straight off again as I don't think they suit me but I think this one looks good. Of course it helps that it's chock full of glitter!


I put it on last night in a rush before going out for dinner and I figured this one would dry quite fast and it did! I probably would have put another coat on if I'd had time but I think this looks fine as it is!


Maz loves this as well. It's one of the few he noticed without me having to give him a prod and shove my nails in his face ;)


So what do you guys think? Does red suit me?! I actually wear a lot of red clothes wise so I don't know why I don't wear it on my nails more... perhaps I've been choosing the wrong shades!

Don't forget to click on the pictures for a clearer view!

So as I mentioned earlier I received a package from MagicXMaid that she sent me for my birthday (I know, it's not my birthday until next week but there was no way on earth I was waiting to open it!). I can honestly say that I think it's the BEST package I've ever received in the post! I was so excited I could barely wait to get home to open it and then when I did I was jumping round like an idiot!! Lets just say that I'm not going to run out of new polishes to swatch for a while!!

Here's an overview of what was in the package but I will be doing a proper post on it later :)


Plus a picture of Barnaby having a look to check that he approves of the colour choices -


Thank you SO much Niki, I absolutely loved the parcel and can't believe you got me so much :)

Speaking of my birthday, it's only a week away now! Still can't believe I'm going to be 30. I am going back to my hometown for the weekend but I don't have much idea what I'll be doing as Maz has organised it all and is keeping it a secret... The one thing I do know is that I will be going out in town with a few friends on the night of my actual birthday (12th). You guys are all invited of course ;) How cool would that be!! The only thing that could make my birthday better is if one of best of mates could be there but she lives in Australia now so no chance!

In other news Maz and I are moving! We finally found a house we like in an area that we like! It's taken a long time. We found out yesterday that we'd got it thus the impromptu going out for dinner and having to put np on in a rush! We had to celebrate :) Fingers crossed we will be moving beginning of October. I don't have many pictures of the place and they're all teeny tiny but here's a picture of the garden -


Exciting!

Seeing as I'm already picture heavy in this post, here's a picture of 5 of my nephews, just because I think they're cute :)


I think that's it... I feel like I've forgotten something but I can always do another post!

Don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't already and also don't forget to sign up to MagicXMaid's Christmas Exchange if you haven't done that either!

Thanks to everyone whose already entered my giveaway! Really happy with the response I've had.

Oh and one last picture - some Barnaby love :)
