Woop woop, Friday is here, nearly the weekend! What are your plans? Welcome to another Fab, Friendly Friday.

First up I loved reading all about tasty Halloween cakes and treats from Save The Date For Cupcakes. She did a post called Orange and black Halloween Dessert Table. So many adorable looking delights for Halloween parties. I loved the look of the chocolate mousse cups with wooden ice cream sticks as tombstones. Would be a good decorative piece if you are hosting a party/get together.

Carolina from the blog Colores de Carol did a great Halloween inspired water marble manicure This look would work perfectly well without the black Halloween stamping over the top. She marbled oranges and pinks then stamped some spider designs as well as pumpkins and other Halloween-esque bits and bobs over it.


We are fast approaching autumn/winter and so there are always going to be coughs and colds doing the rounds. GretalRabbit put together a great post on how to deal with a cold 'Surviving a cold'. She gives her tips on what she does to overcome the horrible sniffles. 


Leslie from Nail Polish Art Addiction put together a great manicure where she free hands stripes. The lines are so straight I thought she used scotch tape until I read her notes. She called this post Fall Stripes and used a mixture of polishes: Zoya, China Glaze, Sally Henson and a brand I haven't used before Cult Nails. Gorgeous colours work so well together.


Finally Buttons and Bunnies has done a great post on how she organizes her lush products. She bought a cream cake stand and popped everything in it. It looks great and I was surprised to discover the stand only cost around £7.49 from Homebase.


That is all for this week's Fab Friendly Friday! Have a good weekend folks.

Fab, Friendly Fridays

This afternoon I am introducing Fab, Friendly Fridays.

Every Friday I am going to mention five posts by five bloggers which have caught my eye and have enjoyed reading over the past week. 

For my first Fab, Friendly Friday I would like to give a shout out to these five bloggers:

Meredith from Polish and Charms did a great post called Milani Gems over black, looking at all the glitter made me really want to crack open a glitter polish myself. Milani Gems looks amazing over a dark base, the glitter particles really stand out.

Next up is Nail Crazy whose title for a nail polish post made me laugh, Poop on my nails....according to my son. The polish in question was a mustard-ish shade from Catherine Arley and it is a holographic polish. She took lots of great pictures which showed off the glistening holo effect. Gorgeous.

Nicole from Noir Lacquer is not only a fellow blogger, but ever since our first swap a while back I regard her as a friend. We stay in touch via e-mail and it is such a great thing to have met someone who I get on so well with. This one of the reasons why I love blogging, the people you meet and friends you make. Nicole is currently doing the 31 day nail challenge, I love her post called Brown & Blue Polka Dots.  The two shades just work so well together and this was the first time she had used a dotting tool, the whole mani just looks amazing.

Allie from Lush Lacquer did a post called Revlon - Facets of Fushia I have never come across this Revlon shade before, but it is a great purple glittery polish. Different sizes of purple glittery particles suspended in a dark base. Allie then applied a matt top coat which made the manicure look even better. I am now on the hunt for this polish!

Bicky from Tastes Like Glitter was one of the very first bloggers I looked up to, she inspired me  to set up my own blog. She was my first follower too. I love Bicky's blog posts, she does amazing make up and nail posts, but recently she has been posting about her cats and life in general which is great. I loved the post she did called Holo Tips. She painted her nails with China Glaze IDK and then did French tips with China Glaze LOL. Drool! I love those holographic polishes. 

And this is what Fab, Friendly Fridays is all about!

I have just realized that all my choices this week are nail posts! That wasn't intentional!

What do you think of my idea for my weekly post?
