Nails of the day: Autumn Berry

I have a dilemma. I can only have my nails painted at certain points in the week. I work in as bar staff and waitressing part time and having painted nails there is generally frowned upon as customers tend to dislike finding chips o nail polish in their food and/or drinks. However, for the other part of the week I am a professional performer. As part of this job title, I currently get paid to sing. I like to make an extra effort to look nice for this as people will be looking at me a lot and part of this is having my nails painted. Anyway, that long introduction was basically to let you know that I have painted my nails for this week. Here they are:  I used Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in 'Pomegranate' on all my nails. I only needed one coat which was good as I was in a rush. I like this nail polish. I find that on me it tends to get less shiny fairly quickly (although maybe if I applied more coats this might improve :p) but I love the colour and think it is perfect for autumn.  ...

I just get so impatient waiting for it to dry. But here are my nails in the sky. My boyfriend and I went to a lovely local park, and sunbathed. In Scotland! Crazy, right? Sorry it's a little fuzzy. My boyfriend took it. Also I was wearing my new ring that I got in paper chase for 75p! It was reduced from £4 and I had been looking at it for ages and decided to treat myself. Unfortunately it broke later on in the day cause my boyfriend squeezed my hand too hard :p Here is a close up of my nails: The lilac colour is purple sherbet by Ciaté and the sparkly colour is white 314 (I wish they would think up more imaginative names) by Barry M and is part of the new sequin effect collection. The sequin one went weirdly lumpy on the opaque sections which was a little dissapointing as I'd been...
