Liebster Award

I have been nominated for the Liebster Award by the lovely Sinead Taylor. Thank you Sinead :)
I have to write 11 interesting things about myself,
and answer 11 questions that Sinead has tagged me to answer.
The next step is to make up 11 questions that i want other bloggers to answer,
and finally i have to tag 11 bloggers and let them know i have tagged them.

11 interesting things about me:
1. I have become obsessed with nail art. For this obsession, i balme my friend Claire, who first got me into nail art.
2. It wasnt my idea to set up a blog. It was Claires suggestion that i set it up to talk about the nail art i do, though i do blog about other things as well.
3. I have a secret obsession, that most of my friends dont know about. I have been collecting keyrings since i was young and currently have over 250 keyrings.
4. I am a book worm lol. I love to read books and will often sit up really late at night to avoid putting down my book.
5. I have my bacheors and masters degrees and still dont know what i want to do with my life!
6. I like a wide variety of tv programmes, such as: Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis, CSI: Las Vegas/ Miami/ New York, Law and Order: original, UK and SVU, Criminal Minds, Sons of Anarchy, Smallville, Charmed, Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes, 2 Broke girls... the list goes on lol.
7. I have never broken a bone, though i have chipped my elbow.
8. I love Horror films.
9. Ive not yet blogged about clothes or fashion. Im trying to lose weight at the moment, so maybe when i have lost some weight, i might do a couple of blog posts and fashion and clothes.
10. I love the jewellery from New look, Topshop, and some pieces from Claire's Accessories and some from Primark.
11. I believe in 'what goes around, comes around'.
Sinead's 11 questions:
1. London or New York?
New York. I would love to travel round America one day, and New York would be one of my top places that I want to visit.
2. What really annoys you?
When you text someone and ask them them a question and they reply to the rest of the text but not the important question! oh, and some of the ignorant customers i have to serve in my work place (spar) lol.
3. What is your favourite colour?
I have two favourite colours - purple and green.
4. Have you any secret talents?
I think they are still secret 'cos i dont know about them yet. lol.
5. What was your favourite subject at school?
At GCSE level, my favourite subjects were Spanish, History and Business Studies.
At A-level, my favourite subject was Biology.

6. What item of clothing do you love wearing?
The item i love to wear most, is not very fashionable lol. I love cold wet days, where i know i dont have to go outside, and i can sit in my room, by the window, with my favourite green hoodie on, and read a book or watch a dvd.
7. What does fashion mean to you?
At the moment, not much. I want to follow fashion more, but im waiting until i have lost more weight.
8. How would you define your city's fashion?
I am from a small town in N.Ireland, and the fashion / sense of style is widely varied!
9. What are some of your favourite clothing stores / catalogues / websites?
New Look

10. Where do you get your inspiration for your blog?
Everyday items. Like, lifting a packet of skittles gave me the idea of skittles nail art. Or, putting on my panda socks, gave me the idea to do Panda themed nails.
