We're not obsessed, we're just best friends!

Hi everyone!

LOL Excuse my random blog title, it's hard coming up with names for this collection without resorting to chat-speak...

Don't know what I'm talking about?

THIS is BFF from China Glaze...

It's nigh on impossible to take a bad photo of this baby! This is under 2 different lights and flash. It ALWAYS looks amazing! I'm obsessively in love with these. I need the whole set!

Not that this wasn't gorgeous enough on it's own - I wanted to add a tiny bit of konad, mostly cos I've been feeling super lazy. So I thought a mini galaxy would work with the amazing starbursts of colour!

This took AGES. I almost gave up - but it looked so cool I couldn't stop! These are teeny stars from fauxnad C01.

Hello right hand! We don't see you round these parts much! haha!

For the stamping I wanted it to be subtle and work with the holo-ey-goodness rather than overpowering it. So when I read that Aussie brand Chi Chi konads well but is very pale and you can see through it - I thought this may be the perfect occasion to try! 

The stamping colour is "High Maintenance" - you last saw it when I did my half moon manicure! 

Pretty, no?

Love,

"Where is boom?"

This is anther one from "The Haul" - probably the first one I gravitated towards becuase
a) This is my first OPI (!!!)
b) I looove vampy colours!

This is OPI's Boris and Natasha

I wasn't happy with the application - no idea if it was the polish or me but every time i put another coat on it took more off at the base of my nail.
Humph.

I thought it would look nice with my new China Glaze matte magic over the top...

Er...

No... just... no...

Love,

A bit of class...

Hello ladies!

I know i'm a bit later than usual with my posts - I am trying to get my sleeping pattern back to normal!

After my last manicure I felt so damned gaudy... I felt like I had to step it up a bit.
This usually happens - after wearing black I tend to go for something totally different, then that ends up feeling like it was way too overkill so I usually go back to black.

But somehow I don't think that me having every other post with black nails will quite cut it, will it now?

So I went for something a bit different.
I still wanted something vampy, but something warm, something with class.
Originally I was going to go with a red but I found this in my little box of tricks and couldn't stop staring at the bottle! I made it a bit different by doing a half moon manicure with it.

I did this last night before going to sleep so excuse the sheet marks! Ack!

But isn't this colour just DIVINE?!
It's a burgundy purply elixir.

This one is "High Mantenance" by ChiChi - an Aussie brand.
Find out about them here:

I love ChiChi - the names are amazing - Mortisha, Mermaid, Jitterbug - too cute! Also, most of them go for the sort of names like -"Plain Jane" "Movie Star" "Soapie Addict" "Paparazzi Princess" "High Heeled Housewife" "Corporate Femme".
Not to mention it applies like a DREAM.
This is two coats but it would have been fine with one - Except I'm a total doofus and bumped one of my fingers.

The moons are the "natural" colour from a french manicure kit by Sally Hansen - this one is "Sheer Romance".
But seriously, Sally Hansen? Natural? I'm a half british goth and that is in no way natural on ANY LIVING PERSON.
Also - it applies HORRIBLY.
It streaks and its sheer in a way that you end up with gross patchy globs.
Originally I just wanted a wash of colour but it just wouldn't work for me.
So I ended up just applying until it was opaque.
I lost count at 6 coats. SIX!!!!
Has anyone else tried these?

So what do you think?
I can't stop looking at my nails because of how much this colour ROCKS.

Love,

Kitty's First Konad!

Hello lovelies!

I know I said I would find my disc yesterday (I did - I found it three hours ago) but that means - Konad piccies! Whee!

Please excuse my amateurish photos and streaky konad - but for a first go I'm quite proud!

I used The Face Shop black with white Konad Special Polish with Stargazer Clear Top Coat. I stuck some diamantes on and then threw some gobs of clear on the top - but as you can see it bubbled a bit.
Obviously I need to get some Seche Vite Top Coat... and not put such big globs on... haha! I used plate m62 for these.

And OH GOD it looks so much worse when you can see everything close up! My cuticles are horrid and please excuse the random fluff on EVERYTHING...

Let me know what you think! :)
Love,
