I’ll just leave you with this mani. Not sure if I like the colour combination but I will definitely be using this pattern again. I can’t believe I haven’t used it before 😀

I had such a good time in London on Saturday. One of the best days of mmy summer so far. I even managed to restrain my polish spending and not buy a single one. It wasn’t too hard considering I hardly went in any shops!

I have to share one of my favourite pictures from the day. We drove past Big Ben and I quickly grabbed a snap out of the window of the coach and it turned out so you can see my brother reflected in the window! I love it!

To the nails…

My polish budget for the year ahead…

10th July 2010

Leave a comment

I have decided to set myself a Polish budget from now on. I’m not allowed to spend more than £5 each month on nail polish and I’m going to try to stick to this for at least a year.

Buying polish is my vice these days – whatever shop I go into, even the supermarket, I’m always on the prowl for polish and it’s breaking the bank! Not to mention taking up a lot of space.

Being a jobless student, I just can’t afford to go on the way I am, so I have to stick to this goal. It’s not unobtainable because I’m tight with my money as it is and never really spend more than £2.50 for a polish, so I could realistically buy about two new shades a month.

I have been keeping a record (as of last week) and have so far spent £11.50!! So not the best start, but I’m easing myself into it!

When I think about it, £10 in two weeks adds up to £260 a year!!! 😮 That’s a shock to the system. That’s a month’s rent for me, with some quids left over for the weekends! So… I’m going to write down every polish purchase from now on and hope I have the willpower to cut down my purchasing.

I’m going to London with my brother tomorrow and I’m sooo excited.

We both have friends in a band called Crash and Berney who are playing in the Live and Unsigned Grand Final in the O2 Arena in front of thousands of people. They’ve worked so hard to get through the auditions and regional finals among thousands of entries and if they win, they will be offered a record deal. They are currently in second position in their category. How amazing is that?!

Please go to their Myspace to listen to their amazing songs or Facebook for all the news and updates.

They’ve already been featured on Mercedes Benz Mixed Tape and are destined for big things. So watch the video below to see them performing Fresh Prince of Bel Air and their original song Doo Doo Doo at the regional finals of the competition. It’s amazing, and I’m not just saying that because I know them!

If you like them and want to see more of them in the future, it would be great if you vote for them. Voting closes 10pm (GMT+1) on Saturday 10th (tomorrow). Just text unsigned16 to 84222.(It will cost £1) Go to the voting page if you want to check out the competition.

And here’s today’s Konadicure!
