No nails today but a new discovery!

I went to Spitalfields market on Sunday for the first time in eons!  Found an amazing shop called Bolongaro & Trevor, they were the original owners and designers of All Saints.  This shop is stuffed full of all the styling and direction that AS has lost over the past 2 - 3 years, I could have bought almost every piece!



These were just three examples of some of the stock.  Check ouside their website www.bolongaroandtrevor.co.uk

Client nails

Couple of quick shots of client nails from last week.  The leopard print was for a hen night!




Remembrance nails and fun times!

As the months go by to my leaving John Lewis and I now have only 36 days left actually working in the shop I wanted to have my management team round for dinner just to say Thank You to them for all their help and support, they came armed with wine and flowers, thank you xx


It is also rememberance weekend and as well as wearing my beautiful crochet poppy I painted my nails a field of poppies in tribute.

Halloween and weddings!

So the end of October is almost here and I've had a couple of clients who wanted Halloween nails, one is Gellux and the other regular polish.....


Her other hand looks like.....


My other Halloween client wanted quite simple nails...


I am off to my best friends daughters wedding on the weekend and am wearing a coral pink Whistles dress with a black jacket, shoes and fasinator, so I've done a marbled set of nails with old gold spots.


...and the other hand..


These are complex nails but really worth the effort, if you've got a special occasion they are a real talking point!

Days away and new nails

  
I went to York last week for work and had a bit of spare time one afternoon and had a peak in the Mulberry factory outlet.......a lovely 'denim' wool skirt reduced by £250! Rude not to!


On the nails front I did a set for one of my clients who is happy to let me experiment! So, jade Gellux, graffiti polish in a clear blue with white and black effects topped of with white and black spots!
Easy but looks fab.

Grazia again.....best nails on Twitter #manicuremonday

Second week in a row:)))))


...and Nikki's nails really pleased with this very simple nail art.



Chipped manicure.....grrrr

I went to the Petplan area finals with my friend Alex on Saturday as head groom (!), but bathing dirty a dirty grey horse, tack cleaning, plaiting etc, etc caused havoc with my last manicure, I broke 2 nails!  So yesterday I took it off and went for a very different look this week.  My cuticles are in very dire need of some treatment and I'll do this over the next few days, I've been neglecting the twice daily oiling!
What do you think?
