And now for today's update. This morning started with me accompanying my boyfriend to the hairdresser. Neither of us speak Polish so finding a reasonably-priced hairdresser who speaks English is always an adventure. I haven't had my hair cut here but this was David's second haircut and once again he found himself having to get his instructions translated to the hairdresser through someone else. It turned out okay though. While he was waiting to have his hair cut, I went to the chemist Rossman (similar to Boots) and picked up a new nail polish. I was tempted by Rimmel's Pop Rose but ended up with a similar shade of pink by Milo (which I think is a Polish brand) as it was around £2 cheaper. This colour is fantastic; I absolutely love it and I think it's a great match with white Konad images. So, without further ado, I present to you my first full Konad manicure:
What do you think? On some nails I messed up the placing of the stamp but overall I'm quite happy with it and I admired it a lot this afternoon, sneaking sly little looks at my nails when I was having coffee with a friend. I don't think it's too bad for a first attempt but I'm looking forward to practising and experimenting.
And finally, a picture of the delicious pain au chocolat David made this evening. The photo doesn't really do them justice but they were delicious.
Now we're going to watch De Battre Mon Coeur S'est Arrete. A perfect end to a lovely day.
Bye for now,
Laura

Haha, the pain au chocolats look funny. I find it bizarre it's called 'follow' to subscribe to someone. It's almost like I'm stalking people although I suppose it is true in a sense. I only realised today that some bloggers I've been stalking for a while are on blogspot too. So now I'm following* them. Heh
ReplyDeleteKonad does look amazing like it's been done professionally by somebody else. I don't think I'll go into it just yet though. Since I'm only wearing nail varnish at weekends, I think I'd find it hard to take it off on a Sunday night feeling it's wasted iyswim
ReplyDeleteThanks Carrie. The "nutelly ravioli" were tasty- can't wait to have the leftovers for breakfast this morning :-)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about only using Konad at the weekends and feeling it's a bit of a waste Wing but...it takes less than 5mins to do so if you're going to go to the effort of painting your nails anyway...
My plan is to use subtle colours of polish during the week when I start working and use subtle colours for the Konad images too! We'll see what happens.
Cool nails!
