Here's a checkered jumper inspired look. I wanted to do something using festive colours so I chose red and green but I didn't want it to be cliche and look too christmassy which is why I picked the dark blue and black to even it out. This print works well with so many colours, and using silver really helps it stand out.

The finished look with Sally Hansen Diamond Flash - Top coat.

Two coats of Kiko - 334, Nails inc - Gatwick, OPI Nicole - Khloe had a little lam lam and La Colors - Black Velvet.

Stamped using Jumbo plate B and Barry M - Silver Foil.

Green shades are one colour I lack in my collection as I am always least drawn to them over other shades, however when I came across this dark seaweed green, I was intrigued to try something different. Gold and green compliment each other very well and this look is very elegant but also perfect for an autumn to winter transition.

Two coats of Kiko 347.

Stamped using LA Colors - Solar Gold and MoYou London Fashionista 07.

The gold leaf print looks very elegant against the darkness of the green.

You know the countdown to Christmas has officially begun when Winter Wonderland hits Hyde Park. If you've never been, I would highly recommend paying a visit this season (even if you are afraid of rides). There's plenty to see and do, lots of food, desserts, sweets and mulled wine! My favourite part is the Magical Ice Kingdom, it's incredible and probably the most value for your money, (not to mention absolutely freezing too!) If you like pretty sights, lights, and all things festive then this is the place to be this winter.

The Movember Foundation is a global charity involving the growing of moustaches and beards during the month of November. It aims to raise awareness of men's health issues such as, prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and physical inactivity. So I thought in the spirit of the charity the least I can do is paint a moustache on my nails :)

The MoYou London Fashionista 07 is definitely one of my favourites out of my stamping plate collection and I'm slowly working my way through all the pretty designs. When I chose this print I didn't quite expect it to give a christmassy look however with this colour combination, it most certainly reminds me of snowflakes.

Lost for words. I'm showing my support with what I do best.

November is here but let's not say bye to Autumn just yet. The scenery around London can be so beautiful when you take the time to look at your surroundings. Colourful fallen leaves everywhere make a pretty sight when they're not getting stuck to the bottom of your shoes. I've used a gradient inspired by the fiery leaves that you see covered on your pathways.

The finished look.

Base colour - Maybelline White Sail.

Stamped using MoYou London Fashionista 07, Nails Inc Matte Gatwick, NYC Spring Street and Maybelline Colour Show - Electric yellow.

London is covered in a blanket of mist and fog today and it's looking rather eerie and grey. This colour is perfect for those feeling the Monday blues or even Winter blues this morning.
