I have been inspired, by the autumn colours polish thread, to paint both toenails and fingernails in leighton Denny's supermodel (freebie with a magazine) and I keep looking at them in satisfaction. I dont really do make up, but, I do like my nailpolish.

when the weather cools down I shall be sampling my teal.

Toes are Leighton Denny Golden Girl (which oddly looks really tacky on my fingers).

Fingernails just have nail strengthener on because they are a state

Depressingly realised I am likely to continue with the pedicures for the foreseeable now I've started some gym & dance classes that need bare feet and I am vain otherwise couldn't be arsed because here in Scotland summer's practically finished.

Black shoe polish, DD1 has had me resurrect last years school shoes.

Toes bubblegum pink gel pedicure.
Nails Dior Riviera - bright coral, I'd say. Love the polish, the brush is genious.

Fingers are No7 Tangy, a juicy coral orange.
Toes are having a few weeks off, after they started going a bit yellow with all the bright reds over the summer.

Toes opi shorts story, fingers opi princesses rule Grin

I've redone my finger a transculent peach. Today, I have bought 2 new polishes, £1 each from wilkinsons. Bordeaux and quartz. The quartz is like a slate colour, and the bordeaux is a lovely browny burgundy.

I'm also hankering for no7's so simple and a khaki.

Toes red, fingers clear - BORING

I'm thinking of doing coral before summer dies entirely on us. I saw a gorgeous green one by Chanel, all sparkly. I might buy some for winter

I've never got the "spending £20 on make up" thing, but dior and chanel have some fab colours for A/W

Both toes and fingers currently bare. Am having a pedicure tomorrow (feet in woeful state). My fingernails were chipped and I didn't have time to redo them this morning so just took it off.

Am just about to paint them with Pro White Original as they're looking a bit yellow. It is genius stuff.

Will paint them properly tonight, don't know what colour. Any ideas? I have a ridiculous stash of nail polish, in every conceivable shade except navy. I hate navy blue as a colour in general, reminds me of school

I want silver mirror nails. Are they foils?

JustTheRightAmountOfWrong · 04/09/2012 17:22

Hands - Lincoln Park by OPI (a purplely black)
Feet - Victoria by Nails Inc (a plum black similar to Chanel's Rouge Noir)

knitknack · 04/09/2012 20:50

Honestly don't buy Chanel polish, it's chipped before you finished painting the other hand - google it! Dior is fab though....

Mumelie · 04/09/2012 22:12

Toes No 7 Teal making me look super pale! Fingers are just clear nail strengthened - time to sort em out.

Dropdeadfred · 04/09/2012 22:13

Nails inc 'baker street' - love it!!

TigerStripe · 04/09/2012 22:34

Nude on finger nails at the moment and a deep blue with a top layer of glitter on my toes. Getting both done tomorrow (Gelish). Currently debating which colours.

Jackstini · 05/09/2012 08:14

Toes - Coral Sunset
Nails - Taupe Tulips

Both by Sensationail (like Shellac but do at home - more convenient and saves a fortune!) and can drink Wine whilst applying

Nails been on 10 days and toenails on 5 weeks - not a single chip!
