Today, I did these Australian Flag nails in support of Daniel Ricciardo who was starting from 2nd on the grid in the European Grand Prix in Baku.  Both practice and qualifying were very eventful, with a few drivers touching the walls of this new street circuit, and many going down the escape routes, however, the race was probably one of the most uneventful this season.

#DaysOut: Yesterday I made the most of the decent weather and visited Ken-Dee Marshes Nature Reserve near to Castle Douglas.  It was a lovely afternoon, just being able to take in all the wildlife around.  If you're in the area (Dumfries & Galloway has been voted Countryfile 'Holiday Destination of the Year 2015/16!') and fancy a nice walk in the countryside, and the opportunity to get up close to some fantastic wildlife, definitely consider Ken-Dee Marshes.

Greg James, the Radio One DJ, is in the process of doing five triathlons in five days - with each one being longer than an Olympic Triathlon - in aid of Sport Relief!  That is some major feat of endurance!  So far Greg has completed a triathlon in Belfast, Cardiff, Glasgow and Sheffield.  Tomorrow's fifth and final triathlon is taking place in Norwich.

As well as the 30 Days of Colour Dec '15 Challenge, I am going to try and participate in the 12 Days of Christmas Nail Art Challenge which is hosted by Challenge Your Nail Ar t Facebook page (run by Jessica from Be Happy & Buy Polish ).  I am going to try and do as many from both the challenges as possible... 

Time for another 30 Days of Colour Challenge prompt, and today's (well, yesterday's) prompt is 'Ugly Sweater'.   

It's time for another  30 Days of Colour Challenge !  After a break in November, there is a new set of prompts for December.

I'm so happy!  My signed copy of Concrete Love - Extra Love arrived, along with the exclusive photo cards!

It is quite a relief to know (via a couple of Facebook Groups) that I am not the only person who sometimes goes out with just one hand painted, when needs must.  It is quite a rarity, when I am in blog mode that I have all ten nails painted, let alone exactly the same.  Well, today I had all of my nails painted with the same design!

It's about time I did some F1 nails, so here are my nails to coincide with the race today in Brazil.

We Will Remember Them.

First things first... HAPPY HALLOWE'EN! Work has been a bit hectic so I haven't felt like painting my nails and therefore have not managed to take part in this month's 30 days of challenge... until now.  I am back in the game for the final prompt: Hallowe'en. I used the watercolour technique again this time with purple (cherimoya - metallic violet), orange (sinful colours - courtney orange) and black (rimmel - black cab).  I used some new nail decals which I received recently ( Nail Mail ).

Today for the 30 Day of Colour Challenge, I have for you Barry M Pit Stop.  I am pleased to say that it lived up to the quick dry title.  The colour even matches our lounge, haha!  Pictures below show two coats on top of a base coat!

So, my favourite colour is actually blue, however, while looking through the polishes in my blue purple drawer, I came across this polish and was reminded how much I love it!  My favourite colour of nail polish changes regularly, but for now, this is it - Metallic Violet by Cherimoya.  The pictures show one coat... ONE COAT! ♥

My eyes are green, with a bit of gold in the middle(?!).  But I went for green as that is the dominant and true colour of my eyes.  I didn't have a green the exact same colour as my eyes, but when I was looking through my green drawer, I found two polishes which I thought looked quite similar, so decided I would do a comparison post about these two greens for todays 'Colour Of Your Eyes' prompt. Rimmel - Green With Envy // Sally Hansen - Pixel Party.
