Black nails.

Oo er, look it's a Thursday. I'm changing my blogging schedule to whenever I want. No more structure, sorry. But it means you will have more posts, I promise.

So, today's post is going to be about my favourite nail trend for this Autumn/Fall.

Black nails. At first I thought this looked gothic and I wasn't into it then tonight I attempted it on my nail, which I had been meaning to try for a while, and I really like them. Obviously these are freshly painted hence the rough edges. Sorry.


Excuse my spotty socks, how artsy is this photo?

 
If you think you can't work these black nails I think you're wrong. Try them out. You can leave me a comment down below telling me if you like them, Instagram me a picture, links below. Tweet me a picture, it's up to you. DO YOU LIKE THEM?
 
Thanks for reading, speak soon.

OOTN - One Direction This Is Us

So, as I mentioned in my last post, my bestfriend, Courtney was going to take me to see This is us on Friday 30th, and we went. She collected me from my house at 6pm and the film began at 8, we arrived an hour or more early. It was the best film I have seen in such a long time and I really want to see it again as soon as I can! I did cry a little bit :'(. Have you seen the movie? Did you enjoy it? Did you cry?
 

On to the OOTN.
I wore this maroon top with finger-moustaches all over it, it is from a market in Minehead and I got a deal on this and two other tops for £5. BARGAIN I think!
My jeans are just plain light-wash, pretty boring really. They're from Primark and they weren't too expensive, I don't rememeber exactly how much.
I forgot to take a photo but I wore my maroon converse dupes. The jacket I threw over top is from Primark and I am in legit love with it.

MAKEUP.

I put this Neutrogena spot cream on my spots because I have some bad spots and I have been using this daily and it is working OK.
On my lips I wore my Revlon lip butter in Cotton Candy, it's pink and has small gold glitters scattered in it.
My eyes were sort of exciting, I just applied this Miss Milly tan eyeshadow and I rubbed it into the crease using a fluffy brush.
I lined my eyes with the Collection 2000 Fast stroke eyeliner
and my mascara is the Maybelline New York the Colossal Volum' Express and this really makes my eyes POP I think. Here's how my eyes turned out..
HAIR.

My hair was curled neatly using a Tesco Styling Wand, I know it's Tesco but it's a really good tool. I obviously used protection. (Innuendo) My heat protectant is the Schwarzkopf Got2b guardian angel one, it's fab, I just spray it onto my brush, brush my hair then curl it and it looks like this.
I also used the Bristow's Ultra Hold hairspray to hold my bad boy curls in place throughout the night.

NAILS.
Essie - A crewed Interest

A few selfies later and we were in our seats. PERFECT seats may I add, as a surprise Courtney got us VIP omg omg omg. I love her!!



Thanks for reading.  Al x

FISHTAIL FIESTA!

Hello Everyone!!

We've all seen fishtail braids going around and they're so beautiful but I never could do a nice one because my hair is quite short and I'm kift, but one day I gave it a go, AND LOVED IT!! I now do the fishtail braid almost everyday, and each day it looks better and better. This particular day I took photos.
 

 
 < Here you can see the braid more closely.


 
 A random picture of me doing the 'hand heart' with myself.. ^


 

 
 Some simple poses;) Do you like the fishtail braid? Do you enjoy doing it? Let me know down below.

Also, can we take the time to say how the One Direction 'This Is Us' film premiere is today and how I'm deeply sad that I can't go. HARRY, I'LL SEE YOU SOON MY BABY<3
I used to despise 1D aloottttt because I was a loyal JLSter but now I feel like JLS have given up on us, but I would never hold a grudge against them, but over these few weeks I have fallen for 5 boys, there's a cute Irish blonde, a goooorgeous Bradford boy with a nice quiff, a lovely half bald lad, a boy who likes wearing stripes and of course, MY BOYFRIEND, the curly haired one with the most gorgeous smile and dimples. Yes of course, One Direction, I have FALLEN in love with them, I can't wait to see their new movie, although I don't know when I'm going to see it, but I will, BELIEVE ME, I WILL.

Guesssss whatttttt?! It's my birthday in just under 5 weeks, I'll be the big 1-5. Ooh la la! 22nd September :) Yay! But it's scary to think that in 1 year I'll be almost 16 Oh My! When I write a blog post and mention my 16th birthday you can all say, I remember when you were almost 15 - Fetus Al <3

Thanks for reading everyone,

O, H + M OTD! 12th Aug '13

 Well Hello There! Today I decided I'd do a O, H + M OTD for you (Outfit, Hair and Makeup of the day) which is a type of post I've never done before, if you like these, let me know please<3
My top is from Primark and featured in my recent Primark haul. It is this CAAAUTE black and white crop top with long sleeves, it shows a bit of skin which I usually wouldn't allow but I was having what I like to call a 'confident' day when I think Yolo and show a bit of tummy!

Oh Hello Mrs. Primark! I paired the top with my leggingy disco pants, which I love, they are so comfy! They make me feel really happy with myself, I don't know why! Haha!



The outfit all put together



NAILS! - Andrea's Choice CIRCUS in Spectacle, per-fect (1DQuote!) for Summer.

ARM CANDY, BABY!


  So, this snakeskin claspy bracelet is from Primark I do believe, a few seasons ago! I love how it looks with a black and white outfit, a k a, the one I wore yesterday!!
My skull bracelet is from The Factory Shop and I love love love it. It adds a good pop of colour to any outfit.
My fake converse come from Primark, they are the perfect burgundy to add to any colour-less outfit.





My Daughter necklace is from a small boutique in Minehead Town, I love it. You can hardly see it here unfortunately! 
 My face makeup was just the everyday rubbish really, but my eyes, that's where the party is at.
My first winged eyeliner that has gone well!!









So, yesterday I met with my friend, Emily to film a video. Here's the video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KinabU36OHM The friendship Test!!

YAY! Thanks for reading.

My nail painting routineđź’…✌

I haven't ever seen/read a video/post like this but I thought I'd do it seen as I knew I wouldn't have too much time to do my post this week because I'm on holiday in butlins(I'm blogging it) also that is why this post is a week late, please don't hate me.

So, first off, if I already have some polish on Ill need to take it off, I use this classics polish remover, I got it from the pound shop!




Then I take this tooth pick/ gem applicator and scrape it underneath my nails to get rid of that horrible dirt you get under your nails.

Then I take a Miss Milly Base Coat and apply this to every nail to ensure they stay on and nice. 

On this particular day I used my Andrea's Choice circus nail polish in Spectacle, this is perfect for the sun because it makes your sun tan stand out. 

And my Essie polish in A Crewed Interest. This is a peachy colour which also makes your tan stand out, I alternated these two colours to each nail. 
Gotta use a top coat, this is from pound land!

This is how they turned out! I like them! 
I just wanted to point out my new background, it is a beer glass filled with string and then has 3 mini umbrellas in them. Something about small things makes them much more exciting!
