I recently went to Maldives and Brisbane (Gold Coast) for holidays and this was done just before I went away (:
This was done some time back, I apologize for the really lousy quality of this photo :(
My exams just ended and the semester’s finally over! I’m so sorry for the huge lack of posts, I haven’t been painting my nails for really long. I’ll be updating more often now that the holidays are here (:
Highly uninspired recently *sigh*. Please bear with me!
Really loved the movie which I watched a few weeks back. I know Thor is really plain.. I didn’t know what to add. Hope you guys like this!
Finally had time to paint my nails! I’ve been busy with school, having fun though :) A french/black&white/tribal manicure for my first day of CCA (percussion club) tomorrow! ;)
I apologize for the lack of updates! I’ve been busy being sick and with school :(
I used Sally Hansen’s Salon Effects nail sticker as the base and I was inspired by the recent “glitter sandwich” nail designs to use my light pink polish to go over the sticker. I’ve also always wanted to do a Paris/Spring themed nail art post and it’s finally here! It was really hard for me to get a decent photo, I hope this is okay though :)
The first nail art picture I ever uploaded to tumblr is the first result under Google Images “Spring Nails”. I’ve also seen them at many other blogs.
I don’t know whether to be flattered or upset because I’ve seen SO MANY people re-uploading the photo as their own, people reblogging their post and just never crediting me for MY WORK. Come on people, it’s not that hard, just reblog the original post or link it back to my blog! (I posted it on my main tumblr reallysoftsand).
I really regret not water marking that picture before uploading it UGH.
What can I do to stop this? :( This bullshit seems to be haunting me recently.

To celebrate hitting 500 followers! This design was the first nail art I ever uploaded to Tumblr. Unfortunately, I hadn’t started this blog at the time and didn’t watermark the picture. It irks me whenever I see this design on someone else’s blog claiming it to be theirs >( I hope it never happens again!
