Hi!
Long time no see, I know, I've been a terrible blogger the last 6 weeks. Since my last blog post I've finished up uni, moved house and am preparing to start my first real job, I'm super psyched! During that time I've still been painting my nails and doing nail art, but haven't got around to writing about any of it. I've seen a lot of favourites posts the last few days and decided to make one up myself! So here goes my top 10 manis of 2014!
