    OOTD Channelling my inner Italian | QueenBeady

    WELCOME HOME! I hear you shout!

    Some of you may or may not know (and if you don’t, do you live under a rock?!?!) that I have been wedding-fying and honeymooning myself up with my HUSBAND.

    I hope to bring you a few posts over the next few weeks that share a glimpse and a peek into our special day, but for now in the spirit of keeping our honeymoon alive & well I thought I would post an outfit inspired write up today because I have been lusting after the Italian lifestyle.

    “why?” I hear you say. Well. Let me tell you.
    1. Everything is just effortlessly chic.
    I could go on to point 2 but to be honest the above sums it up pretty nicely. Having skirted and winded around the Amalfi Coast, explored the billionaire practise that is Capri, people watched from a quaint cafe in Sorrento I can safely say we experienced all of what the beautiful region of Italy had to offer.

    I have so much to look forward to this year. I thought I’d be lost after the wedding with something to do but I’m looking forward to my first Bloggers Meet in Leeds next month, so please say hello if you will be there too!

    How would you dress for Italy? I’d love to know, post your comments below!!

    Nail Art Review | Academy of Colour

    Today is my day off so what better excuse than to get the nail polishes out & create pretty nails?

    Just after Christmas I spent a mere £5.96 in the sale on 4 packs of 3d nail art kits. I don’t normally like to buy cheaper versions of nail polish because I like to make sure it lasts longer than few hours before it chips. But on this occasion I thought I would throw caution to the wind & buy something “fun”.

    I wanted to create a very dark but glamorous look. So I decided to combine two different sets. I painted four nails black & it actually went on very well. It was easy to apply which is the main thing that makes doing my nails enjoyable. I blame my left handedness for the many mistakes I make when painting my nails! This has to be one of the nicest polishes I’ve used in a long time. On each hand I went with the 3d gold balls on the fourth finger to complete the look.

    Overall I loved playing around with this kit & would not hesitate in recommending it to others!
