Very excited

I have a new nail varnish and I am very excited to try it!!

It is Nicole for OPI, and it is super girlie and glittery.
It is called make you smile and it is a clear nail polish with little glitter pieces in, it will look great on it's own or over another colour.

I am super excited to try this, and I will post pictures soon of what it looks like. X

Bee on trend

So another one of the spring/summer trends is the colour combination of black and yellow, their was a lot of this mix on the catwalks and the colours work great together.
And their are loads of different shades of yellow on the high street at the moment too, so there isn't any excuse to miss out on this trend.

You can also create this look with shoes, bags or nail varnish.
Fun accessories can really make a look work. X

Playtime!

So as we are having this gorgeous heatwave I though I would take my dogs out to play and have fun.

So out we went armed with many tennis balls and a bowl for water to enjoy the sun.

But after a while of chasing balls and birds, it got too much, it was hotter than I thought it was going to be and the dogs were giving up with the running!!
So it was then time to cool down with water.

So we had a very fun time, and now after baths they are both fast asleep!! X

PS The cat was loving the sun too!

I hope everyone is enjoying the sun today. X

Tangerine dream

One of the big trends for spring/summer 2012 is tangerine, it was showcased by designers in a lot of the catwalk shows, and is now in the high street shops too.

The great thing about the colour is you can wear it as a colour block with some of the other great spring colours(more on those soon) or you can just keep it simple with accessories, like a bag or some jewellery, or you can just go for a tangerine nail.

Whatever way you choose to wear the colour you are sure to look hot this spring/summer. X

Sunday!

How is it Sunday again!!!!

The week has flown by and now we are coming to the end of it, I thought I would share a few bits from my week.

So this week I have been for a hospital appointment, I have been food shopping, I have received a couple of parcels(more about those soon), I got my 3 new nail colours which I have had fun testing, I have been trying to exercise my dogs everyday!!(read trying).
I have also given my 2 dogs baths and blowdrys, which believe me takes a lot of effort on my part.
I have also been sorting through my clothes and been putting a few winter bits away as it is soon officially SPRING!! Yay!!

So that's it from my week, and it starts all over again tomorrow.
I hope everyone has had a good weekend so far. X

As promised

I painted my nails last night with my new Models Own nail varnish in pink fizz.

And I love it!!!! It is now one of my favourite colours, it looks so pretty on and it is so shiny and sparkly and glittery.
It needs to coats for a good coverage and you can build on that if you want to, though you don't need to, I used a top coat on my nails and I love the effect.

So I would definately recommend this nail varnish. X

New colours

I have 3 new nail colours this week and I am very excited about them.

Two are Barry M and one is Models Own.
The black Barry M one is the new mock croc nail effects, which I am very keen to try, although it looks more complicated than the original nail effects ones, so we will see how that works and I update with the results.

The second Barry M one is a classic bright red number 262, I love red nails and I always think that look is fashionable, again I haven't used this colour before so I will let you know when I do.

Last but not least is my favourite one, it's by Models Own and the shade is called pink fizz which is a pink colour with lots of sparkle and glitter and I really cannot wait to use it, so I will be painting my nails tonight and I will let you know tomorrow what I think of it and I will post a picture of the colour on my nails.

Nudes V's Prints

These are two very big trends this year and everyone has their favourite.

Some like to keep their fashion neutral, and prefer nudes and natural shades as this fits in with there lifestyle.
While others love to rock the prints that are all over the high street at the moment, and are going to big for fashion this year.

But the big question is........What do you prefer?
Personally I like to mix mine up a bit. X

My top 5

These are my top 5 lip products of the moment, I regularly change my fav colours and brands but these are what I am loving at the moment.

5. I always carry a pot of Vaseline in my bag and I love this one with rose and almond oil, it is perfect for spring and leaves a lovely hint of colour on your lips, so there isn't any need for a gloss or lipstick.

4. Is my Fat kiss lip enhancing gloss potion, this one is called fat candy. I love this as it plumps the lips(I think it has menthol or something in it that makes your lips bigger) and looks great on it's own or over a colour.

3. This is the Loreal glam shine 6H and the shade is is 112 keep the sweet. I love the colour of this lip gloss it's a really nice shade of pink and it has a very fine amount of glitter in it too, and this gloss does last really well and goes with different make-up looks, love this gloss.

2. Ok this is cheating a bit as I have 2 here, but I love both these colours and I just couldn't decide between them both!! They are both BarryM and the first is a gorgeous coral colour that looks fab, it is defo one for spring, it doesn't have a shade but it is number 11. The second colour is number 10 and it is almost a coffee/gold colour with fine glitter in it and it looks great on the lips and especially goes with a tan.

1. This Nars lip lacquer is my all time fav at the moment, as you can see my pots almost gone(time for a new one), the shade is baby doll and it looks so good and it lasts on the lips for a really long time. Also because you apply with a brush it can also be mixed with other shades or glosses, I love love love it!!!

Now we just need the spring weather to stay and everyone will be happy :). X

Manic Monday

Why do Monday's seem to go on longer than any other day of the week??????
Today has dragged so slowly and I have been super busy too, I am very glad that it is evening time now and I can just relax for a while.
On the plus side today and over the weekend the weather has been so nice, and that always makes me happy, I think spring has sprung!!!
It isn't long until the clocks go forward and the days stay lighter for longer and then we can all really get into the spirit of spring time, and that is something I look forward to. X

My babies

This is a post to introduce my two dogs, Maxie and Cleo(cleeclee) who are 6 and are very very spoiled!!!
I have had them since they were 8 weeks old and I cannot imagine my life now without them both in it, even if it can be hard work at times.
Like I said I do spoil them, Max likes toys and I don't mean dog toys!! He has quite the selection now, and Cleo just likes tennis balls and lots of them!
But they are both super fun and they always put a smile on my face no matter what, so I can't ask for more then that........well maybe a bit more room on my bed would be nice!! :)
They are brother and sister though they don't really look alike and they are cross breed terriers. So that's my dogs, I will put a few pics up of them too.

I hope everyone had a great weekend. X

Finally!!!!

I have a gorgeous pair of shoes from Aldo that I brought a good while ago now, I have only worn them a few times because they don't really go with everything, but whilst having a little shop in Primark last week I stumbled upon a vest top that matches perfectly! So I snapped it up(it was a bargain at £4).

It is a racer back and the top is a see through materal and the bottom is silky, it will look great with a pair of skinny jeans and I cannot wait to wear it with my shoes........excited!!! X

Something different

So today I decided to have some fun and do something different with my nails for the weekend, I didn't want to paint them the "normal" way, so I decided to just paint a diagonal half of my nail only.
I think it looks really nice and I am defo going to be doing it again with different colours(the colour I am wearing is my current fav).

Anywhoo I hope you all have a great weekend. X

A quickie!

Just a quick post and picture of me wearing the models own neon pink nail varnish. It is such a great colour and perfect for the neon trend that was on the catwalks during fashion week. X

My spring colours

I love painting my nails and really think that it can totally change your mood when you do this, and also an outfit!!
It is easy and fun to do(well maybe not when using my left hand!!) and doesn't take to long.
I have always used Boots 17 nail polish as I like there range of colours and also Rimmel, but I have just brought a few Models own nail varnishes and I have to say I am liking these, the colours are good and the brush is easy to use, so might start getting more of those too.
What is your fav colour or brand?
My fav spring colours though would have to be the pastel trend that is so hot for spring at the moment, I cannot get enough of them and also mixing the colours together much like dolly mixture :) Mmmm sweets!!!

Anyway i'm off to paint my nails for the weekend. X

New bag and matching nails

So I am super excited right now! All because I have a new bag yay.

It is a River Island tote shopper and it's pretty, It is leather and it is blue and red, well their are two different kind of red on it, anyway it is super soft leather and it is a really good size so it holds all my things plus there is room for shopping!! I like.

So my new bag inspired me to do my nails and so I went with the colours from the bag and I love the finished look. What do you think? I think super cute!
That's all for tonight and I will be back soon with more pretty things. X
