Beautiful Summer Nails!

The English summer is filled with murky skies and far too many spouts of rain, and honestly there's no way of painting it pretty. Yes the sun occasionally peaks from behind the clouds to blanket us with its warmth, but more often than not I'm stuck with a day like today where things are looking, well, just a little bit grim.

It's easy to let the lack of summer sun get me down. I'm the kind of person who lives for those days spent basking under the sweet sunshine. But unfortunately for me, this year I'm struggling to find the funds for one of those wonderful escapes they call a beach holiday. It's just not feasible to rely on this fine country's weather conditions to make me feel cheerful this summer and without anything planned I'll just have to make the most of what I've got here. 

So lets get colourful! Bright colours, beautiful patterns and bold statement accessories are here to save people like me from weather related sadness this year. They're ideal for getting us in the mood for summer time loveliness without the need for a few lousy (but admittedly very much wanted) rays. And what better way to combine these great tools than to decorate those claws in as many fun, creative combinations as possible?

No I don't paint mine myself, but with the help of my dearest and most favourite nail technician at my local salon, I get to have lots of fun flashing off some brilliant designs. If you have the skills and patience to do your own, its time to get creative with bright and beautiful nails. Personally I love to visit the salon and be treated with the non-chip awesome-ness of gel polish. Whatever your preference, beat the grey days of summer with stand out nails!

Thanks as always to Megan at Pretty Chic in Darton for gorgeous nails!
