Nails #12 Ombre

On the last ombre nails post, Jasmin from the Happy Sloths said something like 'Ombre always looks good' and I said pah! You should see the awfulness I have come up with! But, now, I have to agree. once you get the hang of it, it's super easy and simple. I'm grateful for that though because it's so pretty! I do have one word of wisdom though, and if you're a painter you'll already know - use the lighter colour as the base coat.



I used an essie blue and a rimmel green. SUCH a bad beauty blogger. I will add this information in soon.

I know I only did a quotes post yesterday, but I am extra loving this today.


How to have a fun day when you still need to work

I found myself in a predicament. I wanted to be out enjoying and making the most of the weather, but I need to do my dissertation and to type on my laptop and I need lots of papers and books around me. For 2-3 days I put it off. But then I thought about Michael being home very soon and reconsidered- I can't put it off anymore. So insteaaaaaaaaad! I've charged up my laptop, donned my favourite bikini, set up a sun lounger and found some shade. Here I am, typing and researching away.. IN THE SUN!

Oh it's bliss I tell you. I am so happy sat here, it doesn't even matter that I'm working because I enjoy the work I do :) here are some photo's I managed to take on my laptop ha.







That last photo has no justice at all, silly laptop camera. There are so many vibrant greens and blues that I am just uber happy! How is the weather where you are?
