Fun Spring Nails

Hey guys, this is what my nails look like this week. 

I wanted something that was bright and fun since it is spring and the weather is getting warmer. 

The colours and polish I used were 

1. Wet n Wild Wild Shine Dreamy Poppy #429D

2. Wet n Wild Wild Shine Kaleidoscope #E71525

3. L.A. Colors Art Deco in White (I couldn't find a name or number)

I first painted my nails all pink, and it took two coats, because lets be honest it is not the greatest quality, however I like getting the cheaper nail polish because more expensive one chip just as fast and for the amount of use I get out of each bottle before it get chunky or goes bad it is not worth spending 7-10$ on it. 

Once I had done two pink coats and let them dry completely, I took the white and drew three horizontal lines on my pinky finger and two on my index finger. It was very easy to do these lines because of the types of brush, however if you do not have one like this it can be done with a toothpick or just extremely carefully with a normal brush. 

Then I took the sparkly one and painted my entire middle finger with it. This also took about three coats, just to get the amount of sparkles I wanted, you can do more or less, which ever you like. I also  made one line on each of my pinky and index fingers. As you may be able to tell from the picture I did a thick line on my pinky, and more coats for more sparkles. My index finger however the line is much smaller and was a little bit difficult to do with a normal wide brush therefore it is not as sparkly. 

Tweet me pictures of your spring nails, I would love to see them.

20 Questions

Hey guys, I wanted to have a DIY done for this week but since I am in exams unfortunately I just did not have time, and seeing that next week is supposed to be even busier I will only have the DIY done in two weeks. :( However next week I will have a nail post for you. 

Here are 20 questions to let you know a little bit more about me. 

1. Thing you cannot leave the house without?

    

    I can not leave the house without a hair elastic, the majority of the time my hair is in a ponytail because I don't want to actually do my hair or have time, but I also get really annoyed with it when it is down and it is in my face. Therefore even if I do actually do my hair and leave it down at some point during the day I will want to put it back in a ponytail. 

2. Favourite brand of makeup? 

    I really don't wear that much makeup, I only wear eyeliner and mascara and that is not very often, so I wouldn't say I have a favourite makeup brand, even the type of mascara I get always changes. 

3. Favourite flowers?

    My favourite flowers are probably lilies, orchids and daffodils.

4. Favourite clothing store?

    The majority of my clothing is from Garage, but I do like H & M also. 

5. Favourite Perfume?

    I like using the body spray from bath and body works, and once again I get many different ones, but I do like Country Chic a lot. 

6. Heels or flats?

    Definitely heels, the higher the better. 

7. Do you have good grades?

    Yes. 

8. Favourite colours?

    I really like purple and always have as well as green, but lately I have really been liking orange. 

9. Do you like energy drinks?

    No, not at all. 

10. Do you drink juice?

      Yes, mostly orange juice but I do prefer water... except in the morning when I drink orange juice. 

11. Do you like swimming?

    Yes I love swimming. 

12. Do you eat fries with a fork?

     Yes. 

13. Whats your favourite moisturizer? 

    I don't have a favourite but I do like ones that have aloe in them. 

14. Do you want to get married later in life?

    Yes. 

15. Do you get mad easily?

     Not usually. 

16. Are you into ghost hunting?

    No. 

17. Any phobias?

    I am terrified of spiders. 

18. Do you bite your nails?

    No. 

19. Have you ever had a near death experience?

    No. 

20. Do you drink coffee?

    No, except maybe like once a year when I have iced coffee. 

That is all the questions for today, if you have any questions you want me to answer leave a comment, tweet me, etc. and I will answer it in my next post like this.

Rain, Rain Go Away

Rain Boots

A few weeks ago I was searching for a new pair of rain boots. It is too warm here to still be wearing snow boots, however since the snow was still melting and it is now spring therefore rain season shoes would not cut it so, I figured a new pair of rain boots would be a good investment. 

I thought I wanted boots that were red and I was leaning towards ones that were knee highs however I saw these online and I really liked them but I was planning on getting them in red. I went to the store Globo, you can also get them at Spring (it is the same company) however when I bought them they were on sale at Globo and not Spring. Anyways I had planned on going to try them on and see if I liked the red colour and if they were comfortable but unfortunately they did not have red. They only had black, grey, beige and periwinkle. I was a little disappointed and thought about ordering them online, but I did not want to chance the shade of red and was not 100% and then returning them could be a hassle so I decided on the black, it goes with everything and I liked them also. I am super happy with my purchase, they are very comfortable and I like them much better than knee high boots. 

I got them for about $30 plus tax, which in my opinion is a good deal for rain boots. However the original price is $39.99.

Back ... Again ...

Hey guys, long time no talk… write I guess would actually be the correct term. 

I am back once again, for the nth amount of times. However I am making a deal with myself that if I do not end up sticking with this and being consistent, i.e. not taking a huge break again. I am not saying I won’t miss posting sometimes, because sometimes life just happens and there is nothing you can do about it but I am going to try and be as consistent as possible and am going to post at least once a week. I am hoping the majority of the time I will be able to post twice or more but as of right now, especially with my exams coming up I am committing to at least once. If I end up taking a huge break and don’t post for a while again I have decided that I should probably stop blogging. So here is to continuing to blog and not taking a big break again.
