What I've Been Wearing On My Nails #42


Fearne Cotton - Burnt Out
I was wearing this back in June, but I'm tempted to get it back out again for Autumn. It's the perfect shade to wear with dark greens & reds at this time of year.

Leighton Denny - Coral Reef
One of my favourite shades! I swear I say this in almost all my nail art posts but it's true! This colour has lived on my toe nails this Summer.

Orly - Harmonious Mess
Ah again another of my favs. The perfect blue for a warm sunny day.

Barry M - Gold
& my latest nail polish of choice. I'm not a massive fan of wearing bright oranges on my nails, but love golds or darker oranges & this one is simply stunning.

What I've Been Wearing On My Nails #22

 
Fearne Cotton - Cotton Candy
Another gorgeous shade from Fearne's range. I love wearing pastel colours in the Spring / Summer & this one is the perfect shade. I was obsessed with lilac last year & it seems to have carried over into this year!
 
Orly - Harmonious Mess
Ah this colour, what can I say? I always feel like I've had a professional manicure when I wear this. It's such an effortless finish & looks beautiful on the nails.
 
Sinful Colors - Easy Going / Barry M - Nail art pen in pink & white
This was a spur of the moment nail art, but I like it. Can never go wrong with flowers in Spring time!
 
NYC - Mint Macaroon
& finally another favourite of mine. I used to wear this shade constantly & after rediscovering it a few weeks ago, it hasn't left my nails! I always find that the NYC polishes are a complete bargain, they last forever on the nails, even after two coats. Mine only slightly chipped after a week.

Nails #17

 
Barry M - Black & Nail Art Pen in silver
These nails were done especially for a black & white themed party - my girl Elisa turned 21 in August (seems so long ago now!) so these nails were done in her honour!
 
Orly - Harmonious Mess
This shade is one of my all time favourites which I picked up a few weeks back. Just look at that colour!
 
Models Own - Magenta Pearl
Perfect Autumnal colour. I always love this time of year for the A/W shades complete with snuggly jumpers!
 
Barry M - Black, Barry M - Bright red, Barbara Daly - Snow, OMG London Cosmetics - Tangerine & Models Own Nail Art Pens in black & white
& finally my Halloween nails for this year! I couldn't decide which design to do, so did all three! Which is your favourite?

Recent Purchases


Chunky Heeled Sandals - BooHoo
Ah, my new favourite shoes! I simply adore these sandals! I picked them up from BooHoo a few weeks back. I sadly didn't get to take them on holiday but I have managed to wear them out a few times before saying goodbye to them till next Spring. They'll be a full post on them soon!

Pug Pillow - Tesco
A pug. With a bow tie. On a pillow. Need I say more? I just had to have it!

One Tree Hill Complete Box Set - Amazon
Ok, hands up who used to watch this? I thought buying the box set was a brilliant idea now James has gone back to uni.. I need something to watch in my spare time!

Vanilla Body Butter - Boots
I took this to Greece with me & now every time I use it now I'm home, it just brings back all the memories of an amazing holiday. Such a gorgeous scent.

Orly Nail Varnishes - TK Max
These Orly nail varnishes have to be my find of the month. The beautiful blue polish is stunning on the nails but I found the glitter top coat quite runny, but in proportion they are both amazing. I think I got them for around £3.99 as opposed to around £10 in TK Max.

Nail Art Pens - Ebay
Such a bargain! I bought these a few weeks ago & have yet to use them but they were between £1-2 from Ebay. Perfect for adding those intricate details to your nail art.

Express Nail Polish Remover - Boots
I'm actually so excited to try this. I wear a lot of glitter top coats on my nails & scrubbing them with nail varnish remover & a cotton pad doesn't exactly do them much good. I bought it in the Boots clearance section & have seriously high hopes for it.

Strawberry & Pomegranate Shower Gel - TK Max
Another Summery scent, but this shower gel doubles up as a bubble bath. The only down side is it doesn't foam up very much, but I'm loving the pump feature. 

Mango & Mandarin Candle - Matalan
Summer is almost over & as we're coming into Autumn, I'm finding it very hard to let go of the sunshine & holiday spirit. This candle is all about the memories. It was around £4 in Matalan, total bargain.
 
Wella Hairspray - Boots
I remember using this hairspray before I went on to L'Oreal a few years ago, but as it was on offer & I needed one for holiday, I picked it up. It's ok, but does set your hair if not sprayed very finely & away from your head.

What have you bought recently? Any bargains? : )
