Challenge Week 36: Tape Mani
Yesterday I realised I'd totally forgotten to post Challenge Week 36 - apparently I had a brain melt down over something :). So I'd better post this now:
As you can see my tapeskills have been vastly improved! Please refer to this disaster if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Some of you may notice this mani is on my left hand. I actually wore the red opposite my Dr. Who mani and just did the tape mani the day after - so I actually had this ready for photoing and posting the day it was supposed to go up. See, I told you I had a brain melt down!
This is nails inc. st. james's before the taping, a wonderful bluetoned red with a very slight shimmer that unfortunately is invisible unless there is bright sunshine. The application was ace, it is a one coater and levels out nicely. Dry time was average.
I've worn RBL Black Russian on two occasions, both times I was blown away be the intense red shimmer that this black polish has. The depth of this colour is out of this world and it is a breeze to work with. I also think it is a testament to it's awesomeness that it covers so well with one layer.
I think I'm gonna wear Black Russian sometime in the near future - I have fallen in love with it once more.

Challenge Week 35: Cupcake Mani
So I got up-to-date on my challenges...and almost instantly lost track and got behind - again! But at least I've been posting other stuff.
The challenge for week 35 is cupcakes and since I am not a big fan of cupcakes I was a bit meh about this. But I have to say that this mani grew on me, I wore it for 4 days!! Kept going "Ah, too cute to remove, let me see if it'll last another day at work".
I bought pudding lane, one of the Sprinkles from nails inc. in July and thought it would be a very appropriate mani to use it for. I didn't want a girly cupcake mani and since the base colour is blue I thought some green might look good with it. I looked through my nails inc. stash and found three I liked the look of together with pudding lane: haymarket, spring mews and hyde park gate. Notice the green theme?
So here are my cup cakes ;)
I used hyde park gate as base colour, haymarket is the basis of the cup cake and I did the stripes with spring mews. pudding lane is somewhat obvious :D
And just for the fun of it I added a green heart shaped rhinestone on top.
I really like this mani, in fact so much I might do it again in the near future, but in purple the next time.

One Year Blogiversary Giveaway, Part Three
And so it is time for the third giveaway - and boy are you in for a treat.
As some of you may have observed I am quite a huge fan of Cult Nails and for good reason. The quality is top notch, application a breeze and Maria Morrison keep on releasing interesting colours. So I thought I'd share my love by offering some up in this giveaway. Up for grabs is Let Me Fly and Awakening and these two really go together well, just look at this:
This giveaway will run for three weeks and will end on September 29th.
It is open internationally with no limitations - but be aware that shipping can take a long while some places and therefore a shipping delay is to be expected.
You will have to follow my blog either through GFC or Bloglovin'.
For easy entry please fill in the Rafflecopter form below - I cannot enter you if you leave your entry in the comments section.
If you win you will have 48 hours to answer your winning email. If you don't answer within the time frame, a new winner will be chosen.
Disclaimer: Both polishes were purchased by me.
