Owl Be Yours Nail Wraps

Ugh, I' am so exhausted. I just want to crawl into a cosy pile of blankets and pillows and sleep until I can't sleep any more. Things have been busy on my end (I feel like they're always busy now, so I'm going to need a new definition of that word), but I'm still trying to make time for the blog!

Today I've got some cute nail wraps to show you from the lovely Alice at One Nail To Rule Them All!

Carnival 2014 Nail Art

It has been far too long since I last did a post; exactly a month, in fact. My sincere apologies. For three weeks I was sick with bronchitis and then Carnival came around and I couldn't think of anything but sweet soca and colourful costumes. Still, even though I haven't been posting, I've been doing my nails weekly, so I've got a lot of manicures stored up for any rainy days ahead!

I'm still really hyped from Carnival, and in a state of what we call tabanca, which is when you miss something a lot, and you just kind of stay living in the memories of happy moments, even though you're sad in the present because you no longer have it. Does that even make sense? Anyway, here are the nails I wore with my beautiful costume.

Valentine's Kiss

I'm not a red girl. It is certainly not a colour I willingly choose to wear for anything other than lipstick. For me to wear red polish, it really needs to be for a special occasion or a special outfit for a special occasion. Therefore, when it comes to Valentine's day, red is NOT my go-to colour.

Since I did pink hearts last week, I tried to give some thought to other colours associated with romance and love, and I bet that you  can't find a colour more passionate than purple!

Valentine's Hearts

Can you believe it's February already?! Geez, time flies when you're doing nail art!

Of course, February always brings along the excitement (or despair) that is Valentine's Day. Whether or not you've got special someone to share the day with, show your nails that you love them with this cute manicure with textured, glittery hearts, stripes and polka dots!!

Distressed Glacier

Hey everyone, how is it going? I've had a crazy week, but hopefully things will settle down soon! Like I mentioned last time, I was sick (I still am, a little), so I did something quick and easy using three new polishes from my Christmas nail haul!

Textured Stamped Stars

This has been a crazy week for me. Cra-zy. Not only have there been loads of ups and downs to deal with, I'm also sick :( So, I'll make this a really quick post and get back to resting.

Xplosive New Year

Happy new year! I hope your 2014 is filled with good times and great manicures ;)

I had a really great nail haul for Christmas; I got a couple dozen bottles of polish, some nail wraps and a few nail care accessories. One of the presents I was most excited to try was Sephora Formula X Xplosive Chaotic, a glitter topper filled with black and white micro glitter, small, medium and large hex glitter and black bar glitter.
