Nail polish/nail art haul

So I told myself that I wasn't going to buy any more nail polish as I didn't have space on my rack.....but every nail polish addict will agree, that's easier said than done !


Over the course of 3 months I've accumulated a handful of nail polish & a stash of  two way nail art pens.

(Essie - Blue Rhapsody/Playdate, Ciate - Mistress/Jewel, China Glaze - Meteor Shower/Riveting/ Passion, Orly - Green Apple & OPI - Just Spotted The Lizard)


I acquired 10 nail polishes in total, and as you can see, I got a mixture of colours. I think my favourite has to be Green Apple by Orly!



Here's my selection of two way nail art pens. As you can see, I was sent a variety of colours: light pinks to hot pinks, every shade of blue I could possibly need & some really nice metallics & glitters.

Now, as we're on the subject of nail art, I thought I might share my nail art designs.

 
 
 
 
I'm excited to try all of these designs this spring & summer.
Which design is your favourite ?

Cozy Winter Outfit

You would think that being in February it would start warming up but NO, it's actually getting colder !! It's been absolutely freezing so I had to wrap up warm for my weekly town/shopping excursion. Here's what I wore today..... minus my coat.



 
Animal print shirt - Wallis
 
 
I absolutely love this shirt, it's so unique & totally me !!! :) I paired it with my favourite winter jeans which I got when I went to New York last year. They're sooo soft !!
 
Indigo jeans from American Eagle
 
 
 
I recently purchased these brown leather western style boots by Rocket Dog off Ebay - it's their first outing & they are soo comfy!!

 
Now on to the main feature of this outfit !!
 
 


I think everyone should have a faux fur gilet in their winter wardrobe. Mine's by the brand 'Together' which I got from Ebay.
 
Lipstick - Mac 'Rebel'
This is my staple winter makeup look
 
Peace sign earrings from Fashionology
 
 
What's your Winter Wardrobe Essential ?

Pretty Fishy Nails

So for my first blog post I decided to stick with a simple nail polish post. Since spring is less than a month a way, I've been digging out my spring nail polish colours. Here's Butter London's Trout Pout, it's a salmon coral pink polish.

(Trout Pout & Seche Vete top coat in natural light)

I haven't worn this since last summer but as soon as I put it on I remembered how much I love it !Normally I'm very lazy when it comes to applying a top coat, however I felt I had to apply Seche Vete as Trout Pout was still a bit uneven after two coats. All sins were erased as Seche Vete smoothed everything out ! [:

(A better contrast)
 
 
 
All in all I think Trout Pout is a fantastic spring colour, it will definately be featuring in my spring nail polish picks !

What do you think ?
Are you looking forward to spring ?
