Halloween Nail Tutorial

Hey guys!

I know my blog is becoming a little nailcentric at the moment but its my obsession right now!

I did a little video for a Halloween look for your nails, I hope you like it!

Ins and Outs!

In

• Autumn! I love the colours of the countryside right now, and I love needing to wear a big cardi and a scarf to go out in the morning!
• Eyeliner - as a newbie to eyeliner I just looove how my eyes look with it on! I just need to practice the different ways to line my eyes
• Holiday Collections - All of the nail polish brands a bringing out their Holiday Collections, I am looking forward to getting a couple of OPI's and there is yet another Nails Inc quad to get!
• Neon Pink toes - I have purchased my first neon polish after watching Elles video, with the genius title, if it's not NEON it shouldn't BE ON! I love it!

Out

• Being cold - a side effect of Autumn arriving!
• Stressing about whether to dye my hair or not! I want to go darker for the winter and I have bought a plum colour but when I suggested this colour to my hairdresser he pretty much shouted nooooo and said don't do it! On the other hand I love my natural highlighs that I have right now but they will be covered by the dye.
• Rollercoasters - I'm going to Thorpe Park tomorrow and I have never been on a rollercoaster! I'm bricking it!
• Miley Cyrus not being on Twitter - she left :( I understand why though!
• Having to wait a week to see the next episode of Gossip Girl! Series 3 started on Wednesday, seriously the best thing on TV!

Do you have any ins and outs in your life right now? Let me know!

Nails Inc Holiday Collection

I give full credit to Michelle from All Lacquered Up for this post but I am truely excited about these and I hope they are for real!

Nails Inc Holiday Collection

Seriously, sparkly, Swarovski crystalled Nails Inc polishes.... LOVE! They don't look like new colours, they seem to be some classic Nails Inc colours like Victoria and Albert (Red) Black Taxi (Black) and Shoreditch (Hot Pink).

I can highly reccomend the glass files too and how cute are they with the Swarovski crystals!

Michelle spotted these at Cosmoprof back in July and here is her original post.

Bring on the holiday sparkle!

The Glitterati

I don't know about you but I seem to get very excited around anything sparkly or glittery. During recent blog cruising, particularly on Scrangie I came across the preview of Zoya's new Ultra Glitter line,



:) That picture makes me happy!

L-R Nova, Lustre, Astra.

These are FULL COVERAGE glitter polishes, seriously! I am not aware of many full coverage Glitter Polishes but they seem to be making themselves more avaliable.
China Glaze have recently launched 50, yes that was 50 glitter polishes!



These are some of my favourites from the collection, L-R Bad Kitty, Blue Hawaiian and Atlantis. I like these ones as they have the finer glitter in them, like the Zoya polishes. I don't like the big chunky glitters.

I really want to rock full on glittery nails this winter so I have ordered some from a company called Models Own,



I have ordered them from Models Own direct but you can also buy them from asos.com or in River Island stores.
I cannot wait for them to come! I will do swatches for you when they arrive.

My Hols!

I'm back from my wonderful holiday in France! I had a great time, I went with my parents and one of my brothers.

I was hoping it would be a week of lying by the pool or popping down to the beach, but that's not my brothers bag and he wanted to go off into the mountains so I had to compromise!

We went to the south of France near Perpignan, in the vineyards, with nothing around


The view from the bedroom window!


The vineyards around the house


The house


The best bit! The pool


The beach, it was out of season for France, although it was still 30 degrees, August is holiday time in France

We visited a lovely town called Collioure very near to the Spanish border and we also travelled over the Millau bridge which was an incredible site


Collioure


The Millau Bridge

Well that was just a taste of my holiday! We took over 700 photos, the trouble with digital cameras!! I really recommend this area its lovely, very near the Spanish border, great, empty beaches and fabulous mountain views. Perpignan has great shopping with a great mix of designer and high street shops.

I have done a little haul video of the MAC products that I bought at the airport





See you soon xoxo

Ins and Outs!

Hey Guys!

I like reading these so I thought I could contribute!!

Ins

Birthdays - Mine was on Monday and I had THE best day ever! I got lovely presents and a surprise phone call that made my day!

Big rings - I am currently obsessing with large rings, I am wearing a beautiful cream coloured rose from Accessorize and have another two in a similar style waiting to be worn on my dresser!

MAC Dazzleglass - So pretty and sparkly! My fave (this week!) is Love Alert.

Monsoon Sale - Loads of gorgeous skirts half price! Got myself two!

MAC Naked Honey Salve - Ahh-Mazing! I am gonna try and find a back up, its the only product I have ever felt the need to back up!

The Anticipation of A Holiday - The pre holiday shopping, the day dreams of sunny days and chilling by the pool.

Loosing Weight - Lost 1 stone now! 9lbs to go before my hols!!

Outs

Birthdays - This is the first year I feel old :(

The Weather - Urmmm its July..... wheres the sun and the heat? I feel like my life if wasting away waiting for the sun to come out. It makes me angry.

Loosing Weight - Or not loosing any weight this week! It has been my birthday though!!

Nude Lipstick - I cannot find one that works with me! Lollipop26 makes me want to wear a nude lip but I might have to admit I can't pull it off!

I think that's all for now! Wow, that was actually very therapeutic!!

OPI and Nails Inc Haul!

I posted a little vid on all the new colours I have for summer. I can't wait to try them out!

Konad Nail Art

I came home from work today and found a little parcel on the kitchen table, inside were the Konad Nail art plates that I had ordered.

I read an article in the Sunday Times Style magazine about Katy Perry, and on closer inspection of the full page picture she had amazing leopard print nails. I instantly hit the web looking for a way to get this look.

I have heard about Konad recently through watching You Tube and reading more blogs and nail varnish sites. My impression is that it is quite well known in the US. Of course I went straight to You Tube and watched a few vids including this great one from xsparkage,



I figured this was the easiest way to get the leopard look!

I ordered the M57 plate the M56 and a little starter kit with the stamper and some of the special polishes.








My first attempt, well almost! The most presentable one anyway!

I actually found it quite difficult to do, more practice needed for sure! I'm excited to use these when I get the hang of it!

Have you used Konad? Any tips for me?!!

My Birthday Wishlist

Hi! So my birthday is coming up and I though I would share with you my ultimate birthday list! One day this dream will come true!!

A Fendi Spy Bag

A covertable BMW

The ENTIRE Mac Colour Craft collection

A years worth of Nails Inc Manicures

A Balenciaga bag a la Baby V

An unlimited supply of Starbucks Frappuccinos

A holiday!

Ahhh, I'm off to day dream!

China Glazin

Thanks to You Tube I now have a full on crazy obsession with China Glaze. I cannot stop thinking about it, I find myself daydreaming about the next colour I will use on my nails, btw I am wearing Cow Girl Up, a beautiful purple colour.
China Glaze is not the best polish out there, OPI and Nails Inc have better formulations, however their colour palette is incredible and like nothing else I've ever seen or that is available here in the UK.

I made my first purchase after watching a bazzillion videos on You Tube, from Sallys but I was soooo disappointed with their range, it was pants. I bought two anyway, just to try them before I made my haul from head2toebeauty.com.
After the stress of ordering from the US and the unknown import charges I vowed never to buy from the US again...... FAIL.

I have placed another order with head2toe and its all this collections fault,



The colours are awesome! I have ordered these ones from the collection,


Entourage


Custom Kicks


Sky High Top


Fly


Sneaker Head


Breakin

OMG! I cannot wait for them to come! I will post a video when I get them, I don't think they have been released yet because I haven't had a confirmation of despatch yet.

Do you like the new collection?

Which is your favourite China Glaze colour?

Oooh First Blog!

Hey!

Sooo this is my first blog!
As I have had the confidence to do some You Tube videos on some of my makeup hauls, the trend seems to be to match it with a blog with pictures as they don't come out too well on You Tube! Some things are not worth making a video for anyway so hopefully this will be another outlet!

I have posted another video today on my most recent Bobbi Brown haul,
