Festive funky french.

Hellu!
Here's another mani attempting to be christmassy :p

I started out with two coats of A England - Perceval (it's like christmas in a bottle yes?) then I taped my tips off with hole reinforcers and added H&M - Kiss Goodnight + SV. Also, I've bumped almost all manis recently, whaddup? o.O

I think Perceval is definitely going to be this months most used polish :>

Also, the bf went to India yesterday with his family. He's going to be away for three weeks and ofc brought his camera. I did stock up on material before he went so there will still be posts.
(Yes, I already miss that boy!)
Toodels!

Dancy hair.

Hellu!
Last week I went to a turkish restaurant with my mom for some good food and dancing. Since we were going to perform some ATS we went all out with hair and stuff. I thought it'd be fun to post my hair style here since it's different from just everyday hair. Also, I like hair :)

I made a small dutch braid (on the right in the pic) and then on the other side made a larger dutch braid that went around the head to the other side. I got the flowers from my mom a while back, she crocheted them. And she also helped me fasten them to my hair here :) I don't have a pic from my dance outfit but it was the same as in this post. In this pic I'm wearing a cool thrifted dress!

Maybe I should wear flowers in my hair more often. It's pretty! See you soon with some more holiday manis!

Holiday stripes.

Hellu!
I've been doing christmas manis for the last week or two. Here's one attempt from early this month.

 Green, gold and red. Those are christmas colors. But this mani doesn't seem all that festive. Ah well. The green is China Glaze - Starboard, the gold is A England - Holy Grail and the red is A England Perceval which I can't stop using. I might actually have to get a back up of that some day. Oh and I used striping tape for this one. It's easier to stick to the nail but you have to be more careful not to get it on the other side of the tape.

I also added a coat of China Glaze - White Cap. Which is totally pretty but I couldn't really show that in the pics. Ye ye. :p

I can't wait for christmas! I'm super busy with my bachelor paper right now. This studying is hard lol! Anyway, a couple of weeks left and it's hopefully over. And we're taking a break over the holiday :)
More christmas manis to come!

Christmassy things.

Hellu!
Here's a christmas post for ya'll. As I'm typing this the snow is blowing all around the place! We're going to a christmas market at our favorite local spot later. Winter clothes on man!

A week ago, on the first advent we made gingerbread cookies.

And saffron buns. Yum!

Not having a christmas tree means improvising. Here's the latest trend: christmas yukka! ;) With lots of DIY ornaments :)

And a pic from today. Look at all that snow! Yes we also have a christmas aloe vera lol.

I hope you're all having a nice second advent! :)

Pretty paper.

Hellu!
Most christmasses (yes that is a word? lol) in my life have been set to the tunes of one record. It's kind of a big deal. No christmas without Willie! I made these nails and while listening to the record on Spotify realized that they fit perfectly for one of the songs.

This is a total A England mani. (I have a problem lol) The cross is Merlin (silver glitter) and from the left: Tristam, Saint George, Lady of the Lake & Perceval + SV to smooth it out. I used striping tape for this one.

Like little presents on my nails! That's what I was going for anyways.

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write "I love you"
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

Yay for christmas manis! :D

Blue flash

Hellu!
Here's a polish I've wanted for a while now :) Yay for gifts!

This is two or three coats of Milani - Blue Flash + SV. Underneath I did a coat of China Glaze - Dorothy Who? to make it a bit more opaque.

This is a super sparkly glitter polish with both big and small pieces. And it's so much sparklier IRL! Here are some much better pics of it and also it's the post that added this one to my wish list :)

This is probably the last regular mani for while. More christmas ones to come!

'Tis the season.

Hellu!
Here's a holiday mani for ya'll! It's a bit wrinkly and what not since I wasn't real patient in my applying... Anyways it's red and gold and I'm looking forward to christmas! :D

Also I only have one half-crappy pic of it :P Anyways, this is two or three coats of Barry M - Red Glitter and then I put on some hole reinforcers and added a coat of a gold polish (can't remember which..) + SV.

I'll have to recreate this one later on :)
