Boo!!! and Spooktacular Tag

Happy Halloween!!

This is what adorned my  nails today, the Red is Ruby Pumps from China Glaze (you know winter is here when you break out that one!) the white is White on White also from China Glaze and the little ghosty is a water decal from ebay.

I was tagged by the lovely Clare over at http://makeroomforcupcake.blogspot.co.uk/  to do th Spooktacular TAG that's kicking about right now.

And i do love a good TAG :-)

as without further ado I'll crack on:

1. Do you still Trick or Treat?

Not in the traditional sense but in a more grownup sense I'd have to say it depends on the company ;-)

2. Do you like going to haunted attractions?

Yes but preferably with a cute guy to keep me safe.

3. Favorite Halloween Candy?

Popping Candy, we had some at work today it was immense!!

4. Favorite Halloween Movie?

The more I thought about this the more i realised i freaking love Ghostbusters :-)

5. Favorite Scary Movie?

I'm a complete scaredy cat when it comes to these things, but i did quite like the scream films, do they count as scary movies?

6. Favorite costume you ever wore as a child?

Nothing particularly sticks in my mind. I think i must've loved being a witch because the majority of my Halloween memories seem to be when i was dressed like that. 

7. First costume you can remember wearing?

Probably again the witch, I had the coolest hat.

8. Favorite Fall Food and Beverage?

Definitely a nice cup of spiced tea and a gingerbread man

9. Do you have a festive background on your phone?

I did but then my phone got wiped so not right now :-(

10. Do you have a festive background on your phone?

You can see what my outfit was HERE

11. What would Pinecone be?

I have a goldfish called Cup. He doesn't dress up.

12. What candy do you have left in your stash after you eat everything else?

Anything green and gummy, ewww!

13. Do you decorate your house?

I do a pumpkin, normally. This year i do actually have a pumpkin, but it didn't get round to carving it :-(

14. Pumpkin Patches, Corn Mazes, or Hayrides?

Here in Scotland we don't really have these things but I'd defiantly give a haunted hayride a go!

15. Going to a Corn Maze, what do you wear?

Bikini and flip flops? 

I don't quite get this question, its cold outside,  wouldn't everyone wrap up warm and put your coat on?

And that is the end of Blogtober!

Can't quite believe I've finished it, and that I've found something to talk about every day!

I'm not sure I'll blog every day in November, but i can think of quite a lot of things i want to blog about already. 

Due to a huge rash on my face (Good thing its Halloween!) my review on the Real Techniques Brush i bought is slightly delayed but as soon as i stop scaring small children I'll be right on it.

And the Olia hair colour review should be up by Sunday. 

So make sure you subscribe for them.

I hope you had a very Happy Halloween, if you've done the Spooktacular tag be sure to comment below!

(No i don't know whats going on with my font here. I think blogger is freaking out or something!)

Fat Girl Slim Week 3 Update

So this week has been traumatic. There's no getting round the stress that's happening right now.

I'm just off another 12 hour shift at work. But at least tomorrow I'll get to shine there (loooooong story)

So on with the update, the last thing i though about this week was healthy eating. Between work and the none work stuff I've just been stuffing things in as and when i remember. You'd think that would help with weight loss but instead when i have eaten its been bags of marshmallows and Big Macs.

At least the scales say I've stayed the same.....

Should really probably buy new batteries for it though......

But with things looking on the up at both the work and personal fronts, and the fact i have a huge event to attend at the end of next month (and a dress for it that wont do up) I'm determined to achieve my goals on this.

Oooooo Cocktails......

P.S Don't ever eat cheese on toast then immediately attempt the 30 day shred. It does not end well.

Googly Eyes NOTD

Just a quick post again today, I've had such a hectic weekend what with the party last night and the resulting revelation that has actually confused the heck out of me.....

Todays nails we're going to be something else altogether but i wanted googly eye nails. So that's what we've got 8-)

I used China glaze liquid leather for the black, White on White for the , erm, white and my eyeliner for the eyes.

This is not going down as my neatest manicure ever (yes that is remnants of Frankenstein on pointy) but i was really quite hungover* so it was the best the shakes would allow.


*I am not a good role model. Please drink responsibly!

In with the new....

So i started a new job yesterday and, much like Saturdays post, it seemed only fit to do a manicure for the occasion.

As i mentioned i haven't left the company but its certainly time for a colour change....

Enter the era of pink (or as my work would call it 'Magenta')

The main colour is Barry M Shocking Pink and the accent nail is W7 cerise Pink

I've found the whole change exciting and terrifying all at once.

And i didn't help when my alarm didn't go off on my first day, I woke up 10 minutes before my shift start on the other side of town. It was horrific. Then my new boss decided, after an hour, that he was taking the rest of the day off and left me in charge......

I'd been at my old work for a very long time so I'm very much a fish out of water at the moment. I'm hoping it'll get easier soon, but there is some big changes still to come....

So I've gone from Orange to Pink I wonder what next week will hold ;-)

So until tomorrow good night my friends. I'm so glad I'm home in time for Red Dwarf!!

Blogtober

There I was minding my own business watching You tube videos seeing everyone getting all excited over Vlogtober and I got to wondering if there was a blogging equivalent.

A quick Google search later and i found out there is!

So since I've been quite good over the past few days I think I'll give it a go.

I don't think I've quite got time to change my polish everyday so there may be a a few more general life posts but since I'm new at this it could be a way for you to get to know me and hopefully by following #blogtober on twitter I'll get to know a few new folk as well.

If you'd like to stay updated there is a few options for following on the right there ---------->

And if your taking part feel free to link your blog in the comments and i'll have a gander round your corner of the interweb as well :-)

Since i like to include pictures here's a random pic of myself i took on my Ipad

(note: i don't really look like this!!)
