Purple and Silver Nail Tutorial

    For most of summer, I've been wearing pastels and bright colours on my nails, but today I wanted to switch it up a bit. A little while ago, I bought the PUPA Milano nail art kit in City Safari, colour 22, which is a deep purple and silver nail polish duo. I love the silvery base coat, as it's has a beautiful shimmer without containing big clumps of glitter, which are always such a fuss to remove!

I painted only one coat of that, as even though it is slightly sheer, there would be a topcoat covering a lot of it.
Oh, and excuse the fact that I painted these in PJ bottoms...

I then finished it off with a coat of the purple crackle topcoat and a a clear coat, and I was done! This kit is so simple and gives great results. The nail polish started to chip after about three days,which is better than others I've used. Below is a picture of the completed nail look.

Thanks so much for reading,

OOTDs

   I don't know how to start this post...

  

   Instead of just showing one outfit I've worn recently (or doing an ootd), I've decided to compile the outfits I've worn over the past four days into a single 'summer outfits' type of post. Enjoy!

Friday:

  My first outfit was this speckled, blue, light-knit jumper from New Look, paired with black stretchy shorts from Bershka and white converse. As it was quite a nice day and I wasn't going anywhere important, this look was comfortable and cool. I wore the jumper both loose and tucked in.

Saturday:

  On Saturday I was meeting some friends, so I wore this printed yellow and blue top with an open back from Stradivarius, as it makes it look like I made more of an effort than I did! I kept the rest simple with some Hollister skinny jeans and white Vans.

Sunday:

On Sunday I was going for a walk on the beach with my mum, as it was a really nice day! I wore a grey sweatshirt from Penneys' (or Primark) workout line, and a pink tank top, also from Penneys. Finally, I had on black cropped leggings from Calzedonia and hot pink Nike free runs, not pictured.

Monday:

  On Monday I was just staying at home, but it was a warm day, so I was wearing a black and white striped tee from Topshop with floral print drawstring shorts from Forever 21. If it got chilly, I also had an oversized demin shirt from Forever 21 wrapped around my waist.

   Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed!

Breakfast Smoothie Recipe

Lately I've been really getting into making smoothies, especially for breakfast - they're quick, easy, and healthy! Today I'm going to share with you my breakfast smoothie recipe, inspired by a pinterest post.

You will need:

• Half a cup of chopped strawberries
• A banana
• Half a cup of oats
• Half a cup of chopped almonds
• Half a cup of yoghurt (I used peach flavoured Greek style yoghurt, but you can use whatever type/flavour you want)

• Half a cup of milk

Method:

The method's quite simple, just spill all of your ingredients into your blender, blend until it's of liquid consistency and pour into glasses! This recipe will make approximately 2 glasses. Below is a picture of my finished smoothie.
