    Purple Polka Dot (Bikini)

    I really like this polka dot design but it’s so hard to get it to look perfect because of the Bundle Monster designs being so small. I might have to buy the Konad plate with the polka dots soon.

    My new blog…

    I have just started a new blog called The Beautysaurus.
    I started this blog to post Daily Konadicures but recently I’ve been diverging from that purpose more and more with mentions of cooking, bands and all sorts of other stuff, so I think I will put all of those kind of posts in another blog. I don’t know how often I will be posting on there. Probably not every day as I do with this one, but I’ll see how it goes.
    There are no real posts yet, but if you have enjoyed any of my non nail-related posts/ramblings, please feel free to check it out.
    Credit goes to Carli @ Konad-licious for this amazing design which I bareface stole! I hope she doesn’t mind. She wears it better than me anyway 😉

    My polish budget for the year ahead…

    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 LANDAAN

    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!

    Steel Stripes

    Argh. The stupid poll has broken again. I don’t know what I’ve done to break it but I’ll leave it there and see if it fixes itself. As it stands, Blue had the most votes last time I checked so it will be blue unless it starts working ☺
    Here is another from last week…
