I love a blog swap! So when I found this one I was super excited! A nail polish swap! So glamerous!
I was paired up with Ange from Hairspray and High Heels. It was slightly intimidating, with her amazing knowledge and love of beauty products.
By I just went and bought bits that I loved! I hope she loved them too!
Arriving home from our hike I found a small package sitting on our front step. I opened it up and to my delight there were individually wrapped polishes, 5 in all and a stunning nail file!
I was inspired to go to Ange’s blog and try one of her tutorials, I tried the fish tail nail polish. It was tricky but so much fun and I’m loving it now.
Thanks so much Ange!

Eeks!!! How fun! I just chucked all my nail polish (all Chanel) out – as part of my living glamorously challenge. I had a manicure done at the salon and loved it. Now I just keep a bottle of nail polish remover at home to take the polish off

I’ve had only one manicure, it was good, but because of all the outdoor stuff I do my nails were pretty short and raggedy, so there wasn’t much theyncoulddo to them. It’s fun to hair nail polish at hand (hehe, pun intended), so you can just do a quick coat when you feel like it.

Cute colors! I’m actually wearing one of the colors I got in the swap, too
So far I’ve gotten tons of compliments…yay. Love what you did with your nail polish design, totally cute.

I’ve been wearing the red heaps that I got! I would never buy myself nail polish, so it was lovely to receive some in the mail!

Look how fun you are! I am so SO horrifically bad at nail polish. Hooray for you for trying (and succeeding!) at something so new and fun! I love that you just did the one finger and left all the others solid red as well! lovely!

I’m so bad at polish too but I thought I’d give this a go. It was super fun and I got some wonderful compliments!
