A Step Away From Pink for Ken


I come from quite a close family. I have a lovely Auntie, she is the most practical, down to earth caring person I know. As strong as an ox and as loyal as can be. She wasn't born into my family, but my Uncle was lucky enough to have her choose to be his wife.

Her Mum died earlier this year, and sadly she lost her Dad this month. As families do we support each other at times like these. Today was his funeral. I didn't know the man personally, so whilst it wasn't emotional for me, it was emotional to see people I care about going through the trauma.

My nails today couldn't be pink for obvious reasons, so I have chosen a deep grey. Catrice London's Weather Forecast. It seemed somehow appropriate for the tears that were going to be shed. I mattified it aswell as a funeral is no place for shiny sparkly nails in my eyes.

RIP Ken, you will be missed.

A Day of Rememberance



 Today had to be more muted than previous attempts as I had a funeral to attend. Thankfully it was an Auntie who had a long and happy life, so in my opinion as sad as the day is it should be full of as many smiles as tears.

I went for A-England Lancelot which is so dark a red its almost a black. However, as it was an Auntie of mine I decided to go with an accent finger of Nothin' Mousie 'Bout It by OPI. A single heart on the ring finger of my left hand and a thin coat of the beautiful holographic sparkles within I have never really noticed before.

RIP Auntie Winnie, you will be sadly missed.
