Happy New Year From Ithinity Beauty!

Allo polish Pals!

And happy new year to you all! I hope you will all have a fantastic night celebrating the new year coming in – do you have any plans? I've really surprised myself as I am so excited for 2015 – I'm full of positive energy and I know this will be a great year in many ways. Here's my positive attitude: I will achieve the things I wish to, lets all work hard this year for the things we want!




 Lets share, Do you have any resolutions?

Here are my resolutions/Agreements with myself for this year.

  1. This time next year I will be at my goal weight – Since I started getting serious about it in September I have already lost a stone so I will keep working hard, enjoying the working out and progress forward. Since I have already lost some weight I know I can do it
  2. My Dutch will improve. It has to and I am determined to work really hard. I'm not good at forced studying but I know I need to do this for myself.
  3. Keep up with my good sleeping pattern. I'm curious to see this one happen – When I am in England I find it easy to go to bed early and to be up bouncing around at 7am. In Holland it seems a lot harder if there are things to do but I am going to do this!
  4. No more evil food: There are a lot of things I can not eat since it makes me very sick. I spent a lot of 2014 feeling sick. I hate to be a bother so I just eat what everyone else is eating even if I am not supposed to.... That's going to change. I gotta look after myself.
All in All I think these are really achievable and I don't feel I am making unrealistic promises to myself, most of these things will come together in one way or another so I am feeling so optimistic.

For this manicure I began by applying two coats of Rimmel's 'Black Cherry'. Once dried I followed on with a coat of Nicole By OPI's 'Stars At Night' (holo bar glitter) and Rimmel's 'Bedazzle' glitter. I then applied a matte top coat and painted on my numbers and wine glass with Oumaxi Acrylic paint. I finished off by applying OPI's top coat.

Well, my beautiful blogging friends, I wish you a truly wonderful start to 2015, I hope you will all have an amazing and successful blogging year. Lets be our best selves this year! I can't wait to see what designs you will all be sharing in the coming year and I look forward to keeping up with you all. It's crazy to think how long I have known and followed some of your blogs now!

Have a sparkly and exciting new year and stay safe,

So much love, gratitude and happiness for the past year I've shared with you all,

Day 10: Gradient Nails (Pink Sparkle!)

Allo polish Pals!
How are you today? Is the start of your week going smoothly? I have to say I'm upside down and completely backwards in everything. Yesterday was a national holiday here and all my days are jumbled up, it doesn't feel like a Tuesday at all... What does a Tuesday feel like?
Do you ever feel like the days are mixed up? I'm rambling! Today I have day 10 of the 31 day nail art challenge which is gradient nails. I actually came up with a design I was so pleased with but decided to re-do as it wasn't quite as neat as I'd have liked. Then of course everything went wrong, the heat wasn't helping so I decided to just stick to a full gradient. I'll be re doing the idea I liked for my striped nails day :)



I'm not happy with this gradient at all but if I get nit-picky and fussy I'll never create a post good enough (in my standards) to show you, so here it is anyway. I started off with two coats of Catrice's 'Chromit and Miss Piggy' and used DA's #103 and Nicole by Opi's 'Pretty As Plum'. That's all.
I know its not particularly fancy or anything but a gradient it is.. I do love how the middle pink sparkles though.

What do you think of this gradient? Have you created a pink gradient before?
Hope you have a lovely day!

Love
Ithi
