Let me preface this by saying that I’m in no way, shape or form, a nail art expert extraordinaire. I usually stick to the run of the mill full colour manicure because of how ambidextrous you need to be to attempt patterns and get them neat on both hands.

However this week I was feeling particularly chirpy and adventurous, because you see, I love having my nails painted, but I can’t wear polish to work. So you can imagine how restricting this is.

So picture my delight when I saw I had no work for a whole two weeks. Two weeks of nail polish adventuring and experimenting so I thought I’d give some shapes and patterns a go!

This is a picture of my first attempt and it’s nowhere near perfect but I’m quite happy with it considering how useless I am doing my nails normally.

The Beauty Department have great tutorials and inspirations on their site here here and here.

have fun,
