33 Day Nail Challenge: Europe

"If euro replaces the pound
It's still likely to be shiny and round
Rich may switch the way they feel rich
but not the man who's alive
or the man who has drowned
Keeping pound only makes sense"

33 Day Nail Challenge: Inspired by a Pattern

The challenge today was to create something based on a pattern in your wardrobe. I don't have many patterns in my wardrobe, however I do have this dress which is black with black velvet polka dots.

Nails: Movember

Movember (from slang word "mo" for moustache and "November") is an annual, month-long event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of prostate cancer and other male cancer initiatives. The Movember Foundation runs the Movember charity event, housed at Movember.com - Wiki

Last year I did some nail art for Movember (and another design) and thought I would again this year, to help raise awareness for the cause.

33 Day Challenge: Autumn Pin Wheels Following a Tutorial

Back in the summer I did some pin wheel nails with a unicorn, I thought it would be nice to do some for Autumn. I followed the tutorial for these by Charlie from PoppingNails.
