Haul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh dear, I've been a teeny bit naughty. Despite not having time to do my nails (due to making all the decorations for my wedding) I have found time to but lots of polish. This is my most recent haul;


Lot's of Barry M, he's been spoiling us with his amazing Gelly and Silk collections. From the pink - Blossom, Papaya, Huckleberry, Cappucino, Cancun, Almond, Coconut and Blueberry. The red, pink and white glitter mix is by Loreal, called Graffiti D'Amour - I haven't even swatched it and I'm in love with it:) Swatches soon peeps x

Haul!

Oh I've been sooooooooo bad recently! And yet, what with house-hunting, job hunting and wedding planning I've not been able to post:( In fact, I've barely found the time to paint my nails. Foolishly, I decided that I would make as many as the wedding decorations as possible and so have been spending my evenings sewing bunting, making place settings, pinteresting like a crazy lady..................my nails have barely had a look in. 

But somehow I've found time to buy polish.....


Starting at the top, going clockwise; Barry M Silk Mist, Barry M Silk Heather, Maybelline White Splatter, Sinful Colours Sugar Sugar, Barry M Aquatic Collection Pacific, Barry M Aquatic Collection Mediterranean, Rimmel Sherbert Sweetheart, Ciate Roller Coaster, Ciate Big Yellow Taxi, Ciate Megaphone. 

Swoooooooooon - these little babies are courtesy of one of my lovely work friends - we've been swapping:) 

Oh Barry M - you're so good to me:)

Christmas haul!

Hey peeps, I'm back - Happy New Year!

I had a wonderful NYE, fiancee and I headed to Aachen, in Germany, with a few friends. We cooked lots of yummy food (cheese, meat, cheese, meat, meat and cheese combined, and pasta - carb heaven!) and then ate, drank, were merry and headed out at midnight to watch the city illuminated by beautiful fireworks - it was stunning (although the fire engines that zoomed past at regular intervals were a bit disconcerting:)

Anyhoo, I was lucky enough to be given some lovely gifts at Christmas, some by fiancee and some by......me lol:)


Left to right - Dazzle, In The Navy and Rage, all by Orly. These were gifts from my lovely fiancee:).................


...........and these were presents from me, to me! I was left unsupervised in Birmingham Airport for more than a few minutes and ended up with these cuties.

L to R; Bronze Medal, Fluffy, Silver Holo, Dollar, all by Claire's. 

Excited to see that Claire's have enlarged their bottles and started naming their polishes - whoop whoop! 

Swatches coming soon peeps x

Holiday haul!

As promised guys, here's my South American haul - I was bad, very bad:) 

Holiday + birthday + engagement = muchas polish. 

 China Glaze for £8 a bottle - got to love that exchange rate:) L to R: Red Essence, Innocence, Secrets, Water You Waiting For.

 OPI polishes for about £9.50 - God bless duty free shopping in airports! 
Mod About You and Gold Shatter.

 Random Argentinian drugstore - unnamed, yummy glitters! Nommy nommy:) 

Another random Argentinian drugstore - oh well, if you will sell polish for £1.50, I will buy it! 


Revlon polish for £4? Okay! Whimsical and Hearts of Gold FX


Ooooops, nipped into another drugstore.........these worked out about £1 each - the fact that I only bought 2 was a miracle. And also enforced by my bf, who eventually manhandled me out the shop lol! 

And then...........it was my birthday, and my bf's lovely sister bought me these goodies - unbelievable:) 


A Konad stamping kit - flipping AMAZEBALLS! 

A small round up

I've died and gone to heaven:)

Haul! Whoop whoop!

Oooooooh I was naughty yesterday; whilst buying up what felt like EVERYTHING in the Bullring ready for my trip on Saturday, I *accidently* found a few polishes:)



Boots were spoiling me with their amazing 3 for 2 offer, so I HAD to buy some Models Own babies. I've been looking for Pink Punch (below, middle) to complete my neon ice collection, so had to get that, and then I saw Sunset Chillout (right) and Bora Bora (left) - swatches soon:) 


Honestly, Bora Bora makes me think of a gorgeous sandy beach after a few cocktails lol:)

Then, whilst trying to resist t-shirts with pugs on in H&M (quite difficult given my pug love, but deemed non-essential for mountain climbing) I found these bad boys. 
























The stunning purple is called From Warsaw with Love, the glitter-bomb baby is called Did I Tell You? I love how H&M use such cute names, and I have to say it took all my will power to only buy these two, they're really upping the polish standards:) 

Swatches soon peeps, am applying between typing lol:)
