Some Random Ramblings...

Shoes & Glasses - Primark
Nails - Barry M Bright Purple & 17 Mint Choc Chip

I know that all the paint is rubbing off the beads on my bracelet, but I love it so much I'm going to wear it till it properly falls apart! It used to be little white and blue flowers painted on the beads.
I actually took these photos yesterday, just before I caught the train down to my parents house. It's so nice to be back home, especially since my mum has baked some of her awesome shortbread.

I'm home because I had an optician appointment this morning as I've been having problems with my contact lenses and my eyes have been really sore. Turns out I'm allergic to silicone, so it's a good job I wasn't planning a Boob Job anytime soon...

Anyway, I tried out Gem's Tips for polka dot nails but my nail art skills are pretty rubbish! I used a sewing pin to do mine but since I was watching TV as I was doing it I kept getting distracted, oops. Also, the quality of the 17 nail varnish (it's a Lasting Fix one) is really terrible. It was gooey and hard to get a nice smooth coat, and then it starting chipping literally an hour after I applied it! I know it cost less than £3 but still, I would have expected better from Boots.
Has anyone else tried this line of nail varnish? What did you think?

    I'm rubbish at nail art too, it far too fiddly for me haha. I have a couple of the 17 nail polishes, the first one I bought was really good but the second one was awful quality. Very annoying!
