Nails of the week!

 Hey!
Before I start with this post, I just wanted to let you know that I will be taking part in the 'blogyoursocksoffseptember' challenge which means I will (hopefully) be blogging every single day of September! Anywayssss on with the post...
This is the first post like this I've done on my blog so let me know what you think & it may become a thing ;) I really love seeing photo's of people's nail art & it's really inspired me to try it on my own however, this isn't the most artistic post so probably a bad example but in the future they'll be more artistic designs!
This week I went with Avon's 'Forget me not blue' which I was excited to try out because it looks gorgeous in the bottle, it needs two coats to make it opaque & leaves you with a glossy and slightly shimmery outcome.
It looks alot darker when you put the second coat on but I still really like the colour!
I then teamed that with Models Own 'Mermaid tears' which is a really pretty blue/purple top coat. I only put it
on the third nail as I didn't want to make it look to over the top. I think it looks really nice on top of this blue nail varnish & think the two go really well together!

  I'd love to know what you guys think?
Would you like to see more of these types of posts?
