Rouge Noir

I forgot how lovely Chanel's Rouge Noir was but I am travelling and don't have my nail art kit (yes, I have one - have you read any of these posts?!) so I went old school.

Nice.

BURGERS & NAILS!!!

Every since my friend Jess Love put me on to the great Tumblr Burgers & Nails I have wanted to get involved. But I rarely eat burgers these days so I just adored from afar...

Then I found myself with my 2 year old daughter in an urban orchard in Perth after watching mermaids cavort in a giant tank needing to fulfil a promise of burgers for dinner. JACKPOT!! About half way through my delicious Wagyu burger I remembered BURGERS & NAILS!! So I took a photo and had uploaded my submission within the hour.

Then I forgot all about it until a friend asked if I ever submitted a post and I checked the Tumblr and THERE I WAS!! I cannot believe how ridiculously excited I am about this. Go with me... If you are reading this you like nails. And I can only assume you love burgers (who doesn't). So go ahead, get a big fat juicy burger (hell, mushroom burger if you are a vegivore) and GET IT ON!!

Show Nails

So my tour of my show ALCHEMY was due to start in Perth at Fringeworld so I wanted to paint the perfect show nails. They had to be right classy and have an element of gold. I went for full gold when I did the show in Edinburgh but I wanted to get a little jiggy with it this season.

So I out it out to the lords of Twitter and Facebook and gave everyone these options:

I used Chi Chi Blood drops with some gold nail decals I bought in the UK (& threw away the cover so I have no idea of the name but they aren't very good anyway so, meh...). It is a great way to use decals as you only use about half a pack (less if only tips). You just cut to shape and stick on, slap a top coat on and you're done!

This seemed to be the winner and look how lovely they look with my subtle glitter shoes in the background!
