I love this manicure, it’s so simple but really striking.

It’s 8.30pm and I’ve just woken up. I had an exam this morning so I stayed up revising until 4.30 and had to be up at 6.30, so when I came in I did my nails, watched Arrested Development and went back to bed (check the link for some chickeny goodness, haha. Sorry, I just love this show).
To do this manicure, I had to use guides. Now, I normally avoid these at all costs because they really bug me and I can do a neater job with less fuss free hand but I had to use them for this one to get the Konad to stay in the right place.
When I say guides, I mean hole reinforcers cut in half because they are so much cheaper. 😀

Also, the wonderful KarenD at Frazzle Aniploish has tagged me with the sweet blog award and I will be working on tagging some of my favourite blogs as soon as I have some free time.
I’ve been working on the layout of my blog today. I hope you all like it.
I’m not sure if I like it very much though and I will probably be changing it again very soon.
I tried sponging today. Was going for a gradient but I think I need a bit more practice to perfect it.

Tonight was very fun. I went to see La Roux at the students union which was hellafun. Supporting were I Blame Coco who I had actually heard of before tonight, I always feel musically superior when I know who the supporting bands are!… Coco is Sting’s daughter and she looks just like him. And Jamie Woon who was amaaazing.
Now I have to decide whether to watch 9, The Informant or The Tooth Fairy before I go to bed…

Not the best pictures, but as you can see, this ‘Metallic Fuschia’ isn’t really metallic, IMHO anyways 😀
Also, a quick note on the fauxnads. Fauxnad plates are good value but as you can see (especially if you click to see the larger version), the quality of the stamp once on the nail is definitely not up to Konad par – just something to consider if you’re thinking of buying Fauxnads.
By the way, May the 4th be with you today – for any Star Wars fans out there!
