Jubilee Nails

It's the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, as everyone who hasn't been hiding under a rock knows.
So I just HAD to do some celebratory nail art.
I decided to switch the colours up a little and use pink, white and lilac, instead of the traditional Union Jack colours of red, white and blue.
Here's my cutesy Union Jack Jubilee nails :)


What I used:

 
Nails Inc 'Bluebell', free with InStyle mag, post here.
Rio Professional Nail Art Brushes in metallic pink and white, from Nail Art Kit, available at Argos. I've mentioned this in a few of my previous nail art posts.

I started with Bluebell:
Then the tricky part, trying to keep a steady hand:
and finally the pink:
Add some top coat and tadaaaaa:

and here's last year's Royal Wedding nails, which can also be classed as Jubilee nails:


Hope you are all having a great Jubilee weekend, despite this dull weather! Oh, to be British.

It wouldn't be a British celebration without the great British weather.

I wonder if the Queen is partying hard?!
