NOTD - Lilac Leopard Print Nail Art Tutorial!

Hey there lovely readers!

If you checked out my previous post you'll know I shared some super easy nail art looks using the Models Own SoFly collection. I wanted to create a final nail art look that was fierce enough to do this gorgeous collection justice & what better than some roaring leopard print nails?

NOTD - Three Quick & Easy Dotticure Looks ft Models Own SoFly Collection Review

Hello there lovely readers!

I stumbled across this post in my archives which I'd written as a guest post donkeys ago for the lovely Safiyah who kindly sent over to me the Models Own SoFly collection to review for her, where I also shared a few super quick nail art looks. In case you missed it I thought I'd whack it on here as well for your perusal as the easy peasy nail art is my favourite kind! :)

NOTD - Lemon & Lilac!

Hey there lovely readers!

I don't know if its the time of year but I am kinda obsessed with all things lemon right now. The shade that is! I picked up the most dreamy yellow dress from Zara the other week that also functions as an immediate mood lifter, it helps that its super swishy for obligatory impulsive twirling of course. I'm currently on the hunt for a lemon print dress, I've seen a few floating around on the socials that have peeked my interest...I NEED!

Disney Nail Art Series - Tangled!

Hello there lovely readers!

Ooooh its been a while since I've visited my Disney Nail Art Series hasn't it? Well lets rectify that shall we? Disney has consistently been close to my heart my whole life so I've loved recreating some of my favourite films in nail art form! You can catch all of my looks so far including Beauty & The Beast, The Lion King & more HERE.

This one today is for my darling Claire in particular who actually designed that header & mini caricature version of me up there at the top of the screen didn't you know? A super talented artist & absolutely lovely girl to boot, definitely do go check her out!

When I threw out the question on Twitter on what film to recreate next, Claire stepped forth & suggested Tangled! Even though this is one of the newer films, I was very cynical when I watched it as I am a hardcore Classic Disney fan but I actually loved it! If you're not familiar, the story tells the tale of Rapunzel whom we all know is famous for her long golden hair....

Meebox Nail Subscription Review - April's Material Girl Themed Box!

Hey there lovely readers!

Back in February I tried out my first Meebox Nail Subscription, a monthly beauty box JUST for nails. Perfect for the nail polish enthusiast! After being mighty impressed with the goodies included, of which you can read my full review of HERE, I promised myself that tempting though it is, I wouldn't succumb EVERY month, because your girl really has FAR too many polishes yet to try, instead opting to treat myself every now & again with a cheeky Meebox fix...as you can see I lasted a whole month before giving in! Nil points for self control Aysh...O_o

NOTD - Miss Etoile Teacup Inspired Nails

Hello there lovely readers!

It may come as no surprise, being the Afternoon Tea addict I am, that I have a "thing" for pretty teacups. Its become an addiction & one that's driven the mother-ship a tad bonkers whenever I bring home yet another pretty piece of crockery to add to my collection, adding chaos to her kitchen cupboard aesthetic O_o

Festive NOTD - Lilac Pastel Starry Night Sky

Hello there lovely readers!

So I'm back from my holiday in the beautiful Dubai, which has completely captured my heart & then some, I already cannot wait to return next year! But for now lets get back to continuing all things FESTIVE with some suitably Christmas-y nail art shall we?

NOTD - Falling Feathers!

Hi there lovely readers!

Hope you are all well & had a good Halloween & Bonfire Night! I had so much fun putting together this years Halloween themed nail art, I hope you enjoyed them too! But, as sad as it makes me, tis time to close the door on the spookiness (for now!) However tis not quite December yet (seriously though, WHERE has this year gone?!) so before we get stuck in with all things FESTIVE, that still gives me November to squeeze in some other manicures, including a few fall themed designs, as it is my favourite time of year after all!

NOTD - Pastel Cherry Blossoms

Hey there lovely readers!

Cherry Blossoms have to be one of my favourite blooms with their pretty, feminine & elegant presence. Not only do I adore the florals themselves when they come out in all their glory every year but I am a sucker for anything cherry blossom print & especially (surprise surprise) nail art!


I've done a couple of different takes on the design, which you can see HERE & HERE. This time I was in the mood for some soft pastel tones & gradient nails as its been a while since I've done me some good ol sponging & this was the outcome!

Easter NOTD - Duck Egg Nails!

Hullo there lovely readers! Hope you're all having a tip top week, the weather is slowly but steadily picking up, work is good & the countdown has already begun for the beauty that is a four day Easter weekend, also giving two very delightfully shortened weeks in the process! *happy dance*

A wee bit concerned I haven't consumed me an easter egg yet though, plenty of the mini variety but those little uns hardly factor, this is something I plan to rectify greatly in the upcoming days...


Speaking of Easter naturally brings me on to the subject of today’s post...Easter themed nails! Unfortunately I can't seem to find the time lately to do any nail art but I am definitely going to try at the weekend! However I realised after doing this mani how much it resembled duck eggs, which is kind of an Easter theme right? Hey presto quick & easy Easter nails! All ya need? A base colour & some crackle polish!

NOTD - Purple & Polka Dots...


Hello there lovely readers & Happy Mothers Day to all you beautiful & incredible mums out there! Truly, what would we do without you? However you're spending your day, hope you're all having a lovely one. My fab & beaut mumma bear & I will be trotting off to enjoy a delightful afternoon tea together later for some quality mum & daughter time, which I cannot wait for :)

                                                                                Moi & Mumma <3
Yesterday my matey & I had an early start & visited Stonehenge & Bath for the day on one of those Groupon thingamybobs, its something we've always wanted to do & I'm so glad we did as it was incredible. I have to say this was quite largely down to the fact that our guide David was absolutely bloomin hilarious, such a character & definitely made the day ten times better! I've fallen in love with the city of Bath, so beautiful & picturesque, we had an ace day visiting the Roman baths, exploring the streets, visiting the fudge shop, enjoying a delicious Indian lunch with stunning views of Bath, before finding ourselves in an arcane bookshop we stumbled across & spending the afternoon talking starsigns & crystals & palm reading with the lovely staff there. An exhausting but wonderful day & I deffo recommend you visit, we already want to go back!

NOTD - China Glaze Marry A Millionaire!

Well hello there lovely readers!

Ooooh its been a wee while non? Life's being a tad hectic of late hence the absence on here but its all been good, much better even! If you follow me on Twitter you'll know I had some much needed good news last week in that I've been offered a new job :) I'm absolutely over the moon & super excited about my new role which will still be pharmacy based, which is the field I work in by day, but more behind the scenes. Hopefully I'll still be able to find time for this little space of mine on the inter-web, I can't imagine life without blogging now, it brings me so much joy so will deffo try me bestest! :D


On to today’s posts darlings, as this week has seen both Fireworks/Bonfire Night & Diwali celebrations, I thought I'd make my first post of the month a super sparkly glittery one! As its only like my favourite kind ;)
