12 posts of Christmas: 12. Merry Xmas!
I’m on the plane right now to Australia where I will be spending Christmas with my family (no we’re not Australian, just decided to migrate to warmth this year). So all that’s left is for me to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
12 posts of Christmas: 11. Christmas Eve look
This is the manicure that I’ve been wearing today, on Christmas Eve. Quite simple, red base – the ultimate Christmas colour and then a stylistic tree and heart detail in miniature gold balls (I don’t really know what else to call them!). I hope you liked it!!!
12 posts of Christmas: 10. O Christmas tree
Wow, the tenth Christmas post – almost there now! Whilst I’m waiting for the polish to dry on my nails, I will upload one last inspiration post, this time conifer-themed, before showing you my final Christmas manicure that I will wear whilst (hopefully) unwrapping gifts 😀
12 posts of Christmas: 9. Multicoloured nails
This is another manicure from last year, multicoloured, festive and quite easy to do! I hope I inspire you, obviously any colour combinations can work – but it’s fun to use more than three colours, and alternate them across all of the nails. You can use tape to get the lines perfect, but this ‘triangle’ … Continue reading
12 posts of Christmas: 8. Guess who is coming to town?
Ho Ho Ho! There’s no Christmas without Santa Claus, St. Nick, Jultomten, or whatever name you have for him! I found some cute Santa nail art inspiration to share with you. As always, click on the image to be taken to the original tutorial/blog, and see how it was done!
12 posts of Christmas: 7. Christmas details
These are the nails I’ve been sporting so far this week, and I love them. Flashy, bit of bling, festive and office-appropriate (well my office has really gone for it this year, we have two Christmas trees and we’re only 30 employees!) I started off with a gold base, I wore just the gold colour … Continue reading

I wanted to post some inspiration ideas for a holiday manicure featuring holly, so here you go. As far as manicures goes, this motif is so pretty and easily recognisable. It can a bit tricky but it is very effective! Tomorrow I’ll post another one of my own designs – stay tuned! … Continue reading

12 posts of Christmas: 4. My snowflake design
So after researching awesome ideas for snowflake designs, I had to make my own manicure. It’s an easier design than many people think, but it does require a steady hand. I would recommend the Sally Hansen Nail Art Pens for this because they are water-based. This means, if you make a mistake, you can soak … Continue reading
12 posts of Christmas: 3. Candy Cane sweetness
It’s the ultimate holiday candy right? Well, probably more so in the US, but still, it’s permeated here in Europe. I love these designs and I am so inspired by them. I think this is a pretty good idea for ‘easy’ nail art. Red nail polish, white stripes (any thickness really), and ta daa! I … Continue reading
