Danglefoot Polish - The Neverending Story Collection

*PR Sample*

Hello lovelies! Blimey I don't know about you guys but it's been a busy few weeks! This month is very exciting as it the fifth anniversary of the amazing Danglefoot Polish. To celebrate, Hayley is releasing a small but still very gorgeous collection of polishes based on the 80's film 'The Neverending Story'. As someone who wasn't even born until 1996 (sorry if that upsets anyone haha!), I haven't seen it but I can promise that these polishes are stunning! Read on if you want to see for yourself!

UberChic Beauty - Succulents Plate Review & Nail Art

Hi guys! I am back again with a new post for you and this time I have a stamping plate review and some nail art! I was looking through instagram a few days ago and saw someone had used this plate, thought to myself "Oo that's nice. I really need to buy this plate, I've wanted it for ages". In the end I didn't buy it because I'm trying to stop spending and it's a good thing I did because guess what I found today? That very same plate, unopened, still sealed, in my plate folder! This is the problem when you don't do nails for so long..you forget what you've got! Anyway, I decided to finally open it and do a little review for you guys. This gorgeous little plate is the UberChic Beauty Succulents mini plate and I love it! Let's get stuck right in shall we?

Danglefoot Polish - Doctor Who Collaboration Collection

 *PR Sample*

Good evening! It's been a little while I know but I've been working an absolute ton. Gotta get all that money to spend on Christmas right?! Or what I really mean is clothes and nail polish! Anyway, as always I am returning with something super exciting. For a while now Hayley from Danglefoot Polish has talked about doing a Doctor Who collection and I was lucky enough to be asked to collaborate on it as I love it so much. Obviously I said yes and a few months ago we really started thinking about what we wanted in it. Do you want to see what we came up with? Of course you do so read on!

Monthly Favourites - June 2018

Hi everyone! Apologies for my mini break again, things got pretty crazy very quickly and I just didn't have time for nails. The good news is, on Monday I was offered an actual full time adult job! As I'm sure most of you know, I'm just coming to the end of four years studying psychology at uni. I've been applying for jobs for months and for the most part, have heard nothing back at all. However, all that finally changed! I'm so so pleased because I'll be working in a psychiatric hospital in my home town which means I can live at my parents temporarily. My boyfriend and I are planning to get our own house together so this gives me the perfect opportunity to save some money. I am super excited and it's finally starting to feel like my life is coming together! Anyway, onto todays post! Way back in October last year I did my first, and only, monthly favourites post. Now that I'm back blogging etc., I obviously wanted to start that again properly so here we are!

Lina 4 Seasons - Summer 02 Plate Review

Evening everyone! I hope your first day of June has been slightly less chaotic than mine has. Had a horrendous train journey back to uni earlier with both trains being delayed, last minute platform changes (not ideal when you're carrying a heavy suitcase), busy carriages with no spare seats and broken air con! I mean seriously, what more could have gone wrong?! I finally made it back to Plymouth and got right into some nail art as I was so excited! I decided to use a plate that I received last year from Nail Art UK and absolutely loved the look of but never had a chance to use. It may have taken a while but I got there eventually!

Sleepover Indie Box - Swatches & Review

Hellooo ladies and gentlemen! I am proud to say that I have officially done my last exam of my undergraduate degree! I can't quite believe it and I don't think the reality has quite sunk in yet... I still have to do my dissertation as I ended up having to get an extension thanks to the not so fun thing that is depression but it's allll good. Anyway, I couldn't wait to get back into blogging so I am making my return with swatches of the recently released Sleepover Indie Box! If you are at all active in the UK indie world then you'll know that the indie box is organised by the fabulous Hayley from Danglefoot Polish and features various other UK indies. Each box has a theme and this time it was Sleepovers! Let's take a look at what goodies were inside shall we?

Danglefoot Polish - Star Trek Collection

*Press Sample*

Hello hello! Thought I'd spend some time writing a blog post as I'm just waiting for my new term at uni to start and I've been sent four gorgeous polishes from my beloved Danglefoot Polish. When Hayley told us she was going to be making a Star Trek collection I got super excited because I LOVE Star Trek, both old and new. I must admit that Chekov in the recent films is my absolute favourite so I was utterly heartbroken when the actor Anton Yelchin died a couple of years ago. It's safe to say that I did not make it through Star Trek Beyond without crying! Anyway, onto happier things like pretty polishes...

Monthly Favourites - October 2017

Well, well, well, what is this? I've decided to start doing a monthly favourites post as I love reading other bloggers favourites and I'm hoping I can use it as a way to incorporate some of the things on Instagram that don't get shared on the blog. I tend to do a lot of swatches and unfortunately only some will get posted on here as I don't have the time to write posts and edit photos for everything due to having uni work. But hey, hopefully this will help!

Halloween Gradient

Okay so let's pretend it isn't the last day of October (aka Halloween) and I've only done four Halloween mani's... I was SO excited about this month and it's been a total flop in terms of nails. But I won't moan too much because I'm actually pretty happy with the ones I'm sharing today, even if doing them meant I didn't go to bed until 1:30am! Sparklea Nail Polish released some perfect polishes for Halloween so I just had to use them before my time was up. Let's take a look shall we?

Danglefoot Polish - Baby Trio

Hi everyone! It's Friday wahoo! I have definitely got that Friday feeling today as I am off home to begin my 21st birthday celebrations! My actual birthday is on Wednesday but I've got friends and family things happening this weekend, including an afternoon tea party. Yep, I'm proper adulting haha! Anyway, not only I am excited about birthday stuff, today is a very special day... Two years ago today my first Danglefoot Polishes arrived in the mail! I was going to re-swatch those very first polishes but as I have a little pile of Danglies I haven't used yet I figured some newbies would be better. Read on to see what I've chosen!

Bestie Twin Nails with A Certain Becca Nails

Hello everybody! Apologies for my absence yet again, it's been a crazy time and I've had a lot going on. For the first time in ages I've also felt a bit unmotivated to do nails. Never fear, I'm slowly working my way back and today I have something very exciting! Months ago me and one of my favourite people aka Becca from A Certain Becca Nails were talking and decided to do a twin mani. It's taken us a while but we got there eventually! I think I'm right in saying I encouraged Becca to buy the stamping plate we used so that's why we settled on this mani. I guess we should take a look at we came up with, yippee!

Danglefoot Polish - Henry & Violet Duo

Well ladies and gentleman, this is the end of an era. Almost a year ago I shared the first Once Upon A Time duo created by Danglefoot Polish and tonight I have the very final one! Over the past year we've been lucky enough to be given five duos as well as a special single polish which I actually haven't even had a chance to swatch yet. This last duo is named 'Henry' and 'Violet' after the cute young couple and was created in collaboration with one of my nail besties Leas Nails

Hollywood Indie Box Swatches & Review

Hi wonderful nail people! Again I'm very sorry I've been rather absent but March was definitely a crazy month! Luckily all the things that were keeping me busy are now over so I've spent today and yesterday doing nothing except painting my nails and it has been fab. To make my return to blogging I have the newest indie box created by the lovely Hayley from Danglefoot Polish. This box was Hollywood themed and we were promised lots of holo. I can safely say that is exactly what we got...plus much more!

Danglefoot Polish - Regina & Zelena Duo

Are you ready for another Danglefoot Once Upon A Time duo? I've spent the day watching OUAT so I definitely am! This duo is based off the two witch sisters, Regina and Zelena. Technically that's a bit of a huge spoiler if you haven't seen the show so I'm sorry! The fact that they're in a duo together suggests they're pretty connected though right so it's not all my fault... Hayley has absolutely smashed it with these beauties, they're incredible! Let's take a look at them shall we?

Danglefoot Polish - Belle & Hello Dearies Duo

Last year Hayley from Danglefoot Polish began making duos based on characters from the TV show Once Upon A Time and tonight I have some of the newest additions to share with you. Belle and Hello Dearies is obviously named after the characters Belle and Rumpelstiltskin and made in collaboration with the lovely Becca from A Certain Becca Nails. The duo was originally released before Christmas but I didn't get them as I was rather poor and wasn't sure how I felt about Belle. It's safe to say I've now changed my mind.. Read on to see why!

Creative Shop 17 Stamping Plate Review

 *Press Sample*

I think it's fair to say that I really like stamping. What I also love is trying new plates! To share with you tonight I have my first Creative Shop stamping plate sent to me by Nail Art UK. This is number 17 from their range and has several nature themed images along with some interesting patterns. I've done a few mani's just to show you a variety of the images that are available to you.

Danglefoot Polish - Polished Dreams Trio

  *Press Sample*

Hello there, long time no post eh? So I haven't posted in four months woops...big woops. It's been so busy and then I contemplated quitting blogging but eventually I decided that wasn't what I wanted. I sort of made it my New Years Resolution to start again but knew I wouldn't start straight away so here we are. From the title you may have guessed I have something very special to share with you today and boy is that the truth! 

Whilst sitting with my family watching TV, I got a notification to say that my wonderful friend Hayley (the creator of Danglefoot Polish) had tagged me in a post on Facebook. It turned out that post was her announcing a new trio of polishes...named after me! Hayley said that obviously I would have to swatch the trio so this is what my first blog post of 2017 will be about, yippee!

The Way You Make Me Teal Dots

Hello! Hope you're all having a good week so far. Been a little busy for me and it's only going to get busier as I'm taking my little sister to university open days and she seems to have picked all the ones that are hoursss away. Typical hey? Anyway the mani I'm sharing today is something quite simple but still very pretty. I've always said that dots are one of my great weaknesses as I can never seem to make them look good so of course the answer is practice!
