My first go at proper nail art, I'd say, ever! I took alot of time and patience and All I managed to master was manicure tips and dots. I love the neutral nail colour trend of late, so I decided to treat myself to Rimmel's Beige style nail varnish for the base of the manicure. Also armed with black and bronze nail varnish and a tiny brush I managed to create my Autumn/Winter Manicure.

Photo Oppurtunity
Recently, while in a pub listening to musicians play during the Traditional Feakle Festival, I was pleasently surprised. It was the first time I wore my bracelet/ring that I had made from a necklace I had that was broken. While the wonderful music was playing, I noticed that there was a man taking photos of the musicians. Next thing I know, this photographer was turning to me and complimenting my "beautiful" bracelet and asked if he could take a picture of it. I was delighted of course and was proud to tell him that I had made it myself. It turned out that he is a Hungarian artist and photographer and he gave me his card. I really enjoyed exploring his work on his gorgeous website and am delighted with this lovely photo of my work.
Take a look!

All that Glitters....
One of my all time favourite things-JEWELLERY!
Starting off, above, with a beautiful, heavy ring from Forever 21 and owl stud earrings my sister got me from Chinatown, New York.
Chinese porcelain style bracelet that I made myself.
A Classic rocking horse pendant from Accessorize.
My somewhat overloaded jewellery stand. I could have a worse addiction I suppose.
Bronze flower ring from River Island.
A brooch that I got as a presents for my tenth birthday from my Grandaunt.
Experimenting
I used photoshop to experiment with some random photos of mine to come with different colours, filters and styles.
My sister and I, in younger days.
My beloved jewellery box.
Rusted coins on a Holy well.
A house in Notting Hill.
Big Ben
The Disneyland castle.
My own sketch of John Lennon that I edited.
Graduation Dress
I finally got to wear the dress that I designed and my mother made. I covered each of the buttons from the back individually myself. Every girl should have classic red dress.
Newbridge Style Icons Museum
My trip to the Newbridge Museum was really enjoyable. Getting to see garments from well known superstars and movies was amazing, from Marilyn Monroe to The Beatles.
Audrey Hepburn's clothes from the movie "Charade"
The famous garments from "Breakfast at Tiffany's"
The four Beatles suits
