    OK, so I'm absolutely shattered, but my listings are (almost) complete! There's a few lying around the house, but excluding those I have 183 - including base and top coats :eek: By the way, that also doesn't include the ones I'm expecting :o

    I guess that there are worse vices to have! I did take some pics, but I can't keep my eyes open, so I'll share them tomorrow, or rather later today.

    Hi Sawan. I had a look at Brand Alley yesterday. Didn't buy anything because with the exception of the Grand Slam ones I had one of the colours already from each of the kits!

    Have just repainted my nails in OPI Cara Mia Crimson. One of my old favourites. In fact It's so old it is not the "friendly 3 free" type.

    Today am wearing.............. nothing.

    Moving the roof from one of the chicken houses in the pouring rain it slipped in my hands and broke all my nails where I was trying to grip it.

    To say i am miffed is a understatement. They are all now filed and shaped but are very very short.

    I dont like wearing colours on very very short nails and i dont have a enought to do a small neat french so bare it is.

    grrrr

    Have a morning to myself, so footspa out and pedi done, toes now Nails Inc Berkeley Street (bright turquoise), mani done, but nails bare, going to have another week of intense conditioning.

    I have photographed the stash, found camera lead and opened a Flickr account, so will try and get pics into Flickr and then hopefully find out how to post a link to them, don't feel I will have to walk the walk of shame as I know I am in good company here;)

    Face mask time and lunch next I think. Have a good Sunday everyone, hope you are all dodging the April showers, hail here yesterday morning.

    Noooo. I actually keep my nails relatively short as they break off quite a bit due to typing at work. I like any colours on mine although have been wearing a lot of vampy colours lately.

    I am so lazy with my feet. I'm always promising myself that I will use my callous remover on my dead skin and use foot cream religiously but I never do. Have got better at painting my toe nails though and tend to do these weekly rather than waiting until all the polish has chipped off.

    At the moment am wearing Sephora by Opi Already Famous. I tend to wear colours on my toes that I don't really like that much unless I'm showing my toes off on hols.
