    Cat Got Creamed

    Does anyone remember the bottle of Manhattan 610k polish that’s on a tour of the world? It visited me here in the UK last October (post here) and is currently at its 9th stop in Illinois, US with Melanie.
    If you are interested in playing host to this polish and being part of the adventure, visit Melanie’s post here to put your name down. You do need a blog where you can post your mani but that’s the the only requirement.

    Todays nails were heavily, okay wholly, inspired by Marta’s recent post over at Chit Chat Nails which you can see here.

    This W7 polish is one of my all time favourites. I had a bottle of this all the way back when my collection was 15 strong but unfortunately it went all lumpy and weird so I had to chuck it. I thought you couldn’t get this colour any more but I spotted a bottle in a bargain shop that sells all kinds of odds and ends and snapped it up right away!

    I Might Miss My Day At The Races

    Things are pretty hectic with my exams at the moment but I’ll be squeezing in a post when I have time! My last one is on Monday and it can’t come fast enough.
    I’ve seen loads of swatches of the new Cult Nails collection – A Day At The Races – and I fell in love with a few of the colours. However, they’re a bit out of my normal ‘price comfort zone’ for polishes but after some coaxing from a few ladies on Twitter and Maria herself (the owner of Cult Nails) informing me that they were running an offer that ends today, I ordered 4 bottles. The shades I chose are Let Me Fly and Cruisin’ Nude from the ‘Races’ collection (swatches here and here), and My Kind of Cool Aid and Iconic from an older collection.
    BUT, I saw a blog post from Cult Nails (here) this morning explaining that they’re having some problems with international shipping regulations after one customer’s order was destroyed before she received it because the contents broke some rules. So all international orders are on hold for the time being. It’s kind of annoying that I may not get my order, but better that than Maria risks posting it and something horrid happening to the package.

    Lol at the missing handle, I think the bottle got trodden on once a long time ago and the lid cracked to pieces.

    Calling All British Nail Bloggers

    I’m on a mission to find as many nail bloggers from the UK that I can. I really want to find some blogs with content more relevant to me. As much as I love drooling over swatches from the latest OPI, Essie, China Glaze etc. collections, it sucks that I can’t actually get hold of them at anywhere near a reasonable price.

    I’d love to see more info about brands that I can run in to Boots or Superdrug and throw in my basket. So if you are a nail blogger blogging about British polish or you know of any of blogs that do, I’d love it if you leave a link for me to visit in the comments.

    My First Pink Wednesday

    Pink Wednesdays is a great little scheme thought up by the ladies from Colour Coated, Glitta Gloves and Life and Polish. The premise is really simple. On Wednesdays, you wear pink polish and post it on your blog. If you want to join in, just click here to see more details.
    Today is my first pink Wednesday! 
    I don’t post (or even wear) many pink manicures, but when I was deciding which pink to use, I saw that I have way more than I thought and I hardly ever use them so this will be a great way for me to get more use out of my pink polishes.

    Not much to update today. I know it’s been a few days since I last blogged but it seems like nothing has really happened except a trip to the dentist today where I had another wisdom tooth pulled out. I’ve spent a lot of time sat inside staring at all my notes from school because I have an exam on Friday which I need to study for but it’s such a mammoth task I have no idea where to start! My plan is to knuckle down tomorrow and cram enough information in to my brain to pass.

    I originally posted this on Thursday in the midst of the Blogger break down, so it might look familiar to those of you that caught a glimpse before it disappeared. I found it yesterday tucked away in my drafts so I thought I’d post it again! Here’s hoping it’ll stay put this time.
