Business with a flare

I always find it hard to be professional but still stating true to who I am & my own personal style so normally when i have to wear something conservative I add in a stylish (normally bright) jacket which is tailored but still cool.
I don't have as much of a problem when i comes to my nails, I'm lucky to have quiet a few nude-ish nail polishes in my collection so i just mix them up with some of my favourite glitters.




This is what i think is the perfect combo for that casual business situation, the nude colour is very demur but the glitter shows your fun.

Having it only on one finger shows your serious but have a flare


I used:

Yummy Mummy ~ Butter London

Rainbow Connection ~ OPI


These are 2 of my all time favourite polishes, i love them both so much i don't like using them for fear they will run out... I know I'm weird!

DIY necklace and Pretty red nails!

Last week i decided to revamp one of my Topshop necklaces.

I got the idea from one of my favourite Youtubers Jeni.


This was a cute green necklace i got from Topshop a while a go, it is nice but because the chain is SOOOO long it can get lost in a outfit.
This is a Primark bracelet i got in a set from Michaels mum. It was to big for my wrist.

So i decided to put them together, and here is the finished product. So easy but a really cute piece. I will wear it in a outfit of the day soon.


Onto the nails all this week i have been wearing red polish, I wore this OPI Conquistadorable colour (wow what a name)

Here it is on the nails.

Then i put on the duo which is totally amazing!!!

Nails inc Milan and Barry M Red glitter.

And on the nails.
