O.P.I Autumn Winter Nails

I adore Autumn Winter nail colours and I love when the new collections are launched. O.P.I has two fantastic collection out this year.
First up is the OPI Skyfall Collection dedicated to the 50th Anniversary of Bond 007 films. All colors of this collection are named after James Bond movie titles. I love the look of them all except Die another die and The spy who loved me (not much of a red fan).
Next up is Germany Collection by OPI, inspired by what fashion editors are calling "Europe’s hottest new fashion metropolis," the Germany Collection by OPI embraces the classical elegance as well as the avant-garde that is modern Berlin. Again I love all but the red and Schnapps Out of it!
The Germany collection is out now and I think the James Bond collection is out October with the new Bind film Skyfall out November.
What do you think? Which shades do you like?
Thanks

It's a bird...it's a plane....no its Supergirl

I'll start off by saying I love Pinterest but so far I hadn't made anything I'd seen on there. On the weekend just gone my little girl had been invited to a Superhero party. I decided to order some bits off eBay but they didn't arrive in time so I took to Pinterest to find some ideas....luckily I did alright!
With some material, felt, wunderweb and Pinterest I came up with the below.
I even made the Hubby a mask so we could have a Daddy and Daughter combo.
For the cape and logo I used Puking Pastilles and for the mask I used Living Locurto.
Are you a Pinterest fan?
Thanks

2nd Wedding Anniversary

Today's is my 2nd Wedding Anniversary! I can't believe it's been 2 years (though we've been together for 11years anyway!). Below are some of my pics from the day.

My colour theme was purple with a bit of hot pink but I also had a sweet theme as you can see below with my homemade table numbers and sweet centrepieces.
My cake also followed the theme.
I am going to enjoying a nice evening in with my hubby (we didn't sort out a babysitter).
Thanks

NOTD L'Oreal Parisian Rooftops

Today's post is a review on a new nail polish I picked up from Boots. It is from the new Colour Riche nails which is L'Oreal first long lasting mini nail collection, the shade I got was Parisian Rooftops. The collection contains 41 gel based colours designed by L'Oreal Paris' Colour Creative Director Orrea Light. The choice of shades is great, the cost £4.99 for 5ml bottle which I do think is expensive.

Parisian Rooftops is a taupe grey shade with a slight purple undertone. I like the colour against my skin tone, it's far more grey toned than a lot of the the grurplewhich I prefer.

I would love to own all the shades, they may not be the best ever polish but for some reason I am really drawn to them and I love them. You can see swatches if my other shades here.

The swatch above was with 2 coats applied and you can see it gives a great opaque finish. Application is lovely and easy due to the fat fat brush (my favourite type of brush to apply nail polish). Though the consistency can be a little runny so just watch out!

What do you think? Overall I like this nail polish though its a tad expensive and I would certainly look at more shades. Have you tried them? Do you have a fave shade?

Rough Cut Ring

I love a bargain and tha week I spotted a great one in New Look. They are running buy one get one free on their jewellery. I have so far picked up two rings and two bracelets but I wanted to show you my fav of the bunch.
This is the rough cut ring in lack which I paid £3.99 for (I had picked up a £3.99 bracelet with it.
I love it! It's chunky, a bit sparkly and different!
What do you think? New Look have some great items available and I will be popping back!
