I know these aren't really shamrocks because they have four leaves but hopefully no one will call me up on it today!

E.L.F Mod Mauve
I've had this polish in my drawer for months now but have never worn it because I was so disappointed with the way it looks IRL compared to the swatch on the website. After looking at a few other people's swatches (here, here and here) I'm starting to think I got a dud bottle. I can only describe it as muddy red.
I was appalled at this colour when I first applied it but it's growing on me now. I don't really have anything else like this in my collection - probably because it's kind of 'blah' and wouldn't stand out to me if I saw it on a shop shelf - so I'm not going to throw it away but it won't be a polish that I pick out very often. I can't even think of any occasions when this would be a good shade to wear.
It was really hard to pick colours to match for the nail art but I think I picked some good ones which have helped in making me like this colour a bit better.

It's weird to see a picture of my nails upside down like this but I thought I'd shake things up a bit today and take some photos from different angles. I'm very particular and normally like uniformity but I realise the front on pictures everyday get a bit same-y so I'll be trying some more exciting shots from now on.

Shooting flowers
I had such a good time in London on Saturday. One of the best days of mmy summer so far. I even managed to restrain my polish spending and not buy a single one. It wasn't too hard considering I hardly went in any shops!I have to share one of my favourite pictures from the day. We drove past Big Ben and I quickly grabbed a snap out of the window of the coach and it turned out so you can see my brother reflected in the window! I love it!
To the nails...
