Harriet's Questions

1.   What has been the best experience you have had in the nail blogging world?

I really haven't had much experience in the nail blogging world but getting the guts up to show my nails in the first place is a biggie!!

2.   What has been the worst?

Probably my first ever nail swatch, my nails are short for work and they really looked terrible.

3.   Cats or Dogs? and why?  I love both but prefer cats because they are more independant.

4.   Would you prefer to read the book before the movie, or the other way around? (e.g. Harry Potter)

I prefer to read the book but I get so disappointed when I see the movie after the book because they invariably leave too much out.

5.   What do you think the next big nail trend will be?

Honestly I have no idea but I always liked the idea from the original Total Recall movie where the Rekall receptionist had a touch pen which changes the colour of her finger nails.  That would be a pretty cool device to have.

6.   What's the furthest you have ever been from your hometown?

I was born in the UK and moved to Australia!

7.   Who does the dishes in your house?

We all take turns

8.   When did you last change your toothbrush?

Probably not as often as I should but when it starts to lose it's shape

9.   What would be a perfect day for you?

Bargain shopping with unlimited funds, I love a bargain, hate paying full price for anything!

10.  Favourite Flower

Purple Dutch Iris

11.  Which manicure are you most proud of?  Provide a link.

Besides a few swatches, nail mani's are not my thing, though I love looking at all the talented bloggers and their gorgeous creations.  I love this one by Harriet 'Rose Champagne'.
