Nailing It

22 March 2014

Nail polish is something that I always select very carefully. I rarely walk into a nail salon and choose a colour on the spot. More often than not I bring my own from my ever growing nail polish collection at home. 

I've always had a soft spot for nail polish. I don't buy expensive brands normally but as I wandered through a maze of beauty products about a month ago at the airport in Dubai, I stumbled upon an array of lust worthy shades from Dior. I've never seen polish as beautiful as these before and I had to talk myself out of buying them because it would have been impossible to choose just one colour. The whole Dior Vernis range is like a visual cocktail of vibrant sparkle and shine and is currently at the top of my list of products to try. 

These are some of the shades that caught my eye.


Flowers & Hide

23 April 2013

What happened to the sunshine?! The past few weeks have brought nothing but rain and it's been freezing cold too. Last time I checked it's not winter just yet! Given that I'm still wearing elements of my summer wardrobe though, it's probably not that cold, but I'm struggling to let go of the warm weather all the same. 

As it was such a nice day on Sunday (and after having to put up with seeing countless amounts of photos from fashion bloggers from Coachella all week long), I had the urge to wear this somewhat festival inspired outfit. It looks super cute paired with my colourful floral cuff and flower painted nails. Now all I need is for the sunshine to stay...at least for a little while I hope.

A Bit of Boho

Zara top | Billabong shorts | Betts sandals 

This type of clothing isn't normally my style but I love keeping an open mind when it comes to fashion and I'm always keen to try new things. I wore this on the weekend for a chilled day at the shops (where I got some much needed Christmas shopping done). This outfit would be perfect for festivals too though!

I was so happy to receive so many compliments throughout the day on my shoes (yes I'm finally wearing flats). I haven't worn these in a while, so decided to pull them out of the back of my wardrobe and show them off. They're actually from last season but I haven't seen any sandals as amazing as these yet this summer.

The best way to pull off wearing old season shoes or clothing is by teaming it with other current and on trend pieces, even it's only your bag or accessories. I wore these old shoes and shorts with this awesome fringe top that I bought from Zara in Barcelona this year and mixed it with vibrant accessories (very on trend at the moment). 

I finally changed my nail colour too! I've been looking for neon yellow for ages, so now I'm  a very happy girl. Hope you like!
