Day 34 - OPI What's With The Cattitude? with clouds and balloon nail art!

Hope everyone has had a great start to the week! Mine started off well with my first ever boot camp session at 6.30am this morning!! It was incredibly tough!! I also made the mistake of going to Pilates tonight, thinking it would make me feel a little less sore (it didn't...actually it made things worse!) Needless to say I am completely exhausted now but don't worry, as promised, I have done a super cute nail art design for you today...clouds! I did this over the gorgeous blue I posted yesterday, What's With The Cattitude? And of course I couldn't help myself but add a little red balloon as a feature nail. Check it out:




I love the last minute balloon addition! Actually, as my friend and I were leaving boot camp this morning we spotted 4 hot air balloons in the sky - such a beautiful sight! I love when I am up early enough to see hot air balloons in the sky. This has inspired me to think up a nail art design that I could do....so stay tuned for that one to come some time in the near future! Here's a picture of the balloons from this morning:

Also, I realised that I am 12 days off finishing my "lent" challenge to do a post every day for 40 days. I thought I should clarify that, yes, I cannot count, and that lent is actually 46 days this year. So don't worry, I am sticking to my goal and have decided for the last week leading up to Easter I will do nothing but Easter themed nail art, how exciting! I just cannot believe how quickly the last 34 days have gone. And I am so lucky to have had such amazing support from friends and family and readers from all across the world who have left such kind and encouraging comments I am truly grateful for all of your support. You have made this journey so much more enjoyable and given me advice and feedback along the way which is really appreciated so please, please keep the love coming!!

Right, enough from me now. I hope you have a great day/evening wherever in the world you are and make sure you keep reading for the next 12 days I promise I'll try and keep things interesting. For now, good night my friends :) See you tomorrow!

Day 33 - OPI What's With The Cattitude? swatches and review

Hola amigos! Today's post is going to be super super quick because I've got graduate applications to work on and I've gotta be up at 5am for my first boot camp session tomorrow (wish me luck!!) anyway...I have a really cute colour for you today from the OPI Shrek Forever After Collection of 2010. I really really wanted to do this surprise nail art design I had thought of but time has not permitted today unfortunately so I'll keep this colour on over night and add the design tomorrow!! So you'll have to stay tuned for then . . .

OPI What's With The Cattitude?





A bright, pastel baby-blue creme. Perfect for the nail art design I have in store for tomorrow (you'll understand when you see it!) I love love love this colour but wasn't mad on the formula to be honest. With one coat it was really streaky but thankfully (phew!) it redeemed itself with a second and then third coat and became a smoother creamier colour with full opacity. Lovely!

Anyway bed time now! See you tomorrow :)
