Essie's Knockout Pout Polish

Essie's Knockout Pout is an absolutely beautiful pink polish. This polish leaves a flawless finish which is just amazing.

Knockout Pout has a fantastic, smooth formula which applies excellently to the nails with the brush provided. After two coats of this polish your nails are totally opaque and streak free. It also dries fairly quickly and is pretty hard wearing.

This polish is definitely worth purchasing as it is such a gorgeous shade. I am so happy that I have been able to add it to my collection.

What do you think about Essie's Knockout Pout? Have you tried this polish before? I'd love to know what you think!


Michelle Mone's Autobiography

Michelle Mone is a highly successful Scottish business woman who I have never really known very much about. All I knew was that she owned a lingerie company but there is so much more to her story than that as I learned from reading her autobiography My Fight To The Top.

Reading about her childhood and where she grew up along with how she started her business was great. I had no idea that she actually invented all of the cutting edge designs that have made underwear more comfortable and practical for modern women.

There are so many interesting stories in this book which I don't want to spoil including the ups and downs involving Michelle's business. I was hooked after reading only a few pages. 

I definitely recommend this book even if you have never heard of Michelle Mone. It's a really really interesting read.

Have any of you guys read Michelle Mone's autobiography My Fight To The Top? Do you think that it is something that you would like to read? Let me know what you think!

Mia Felce Phone Cases: New Additions

I love Mia Felce's phone case designs so much and I am super happy that she has released three new designs which I obviously had to purchase. It makes me so happy to add her latest designs to my collection. Every time I change my phone case I can cover it with a different and unique piece of artwork. As someone who loves art, colour and design this makes me very happy.

I am definitely now as addicted to Mia Felce's phone case designs as I am to nail polish. I highly recommend checking out Mia's website http://www.miafelce.co.uk/ .

What do you guys think of my new Mia Felce phone cases? Which is your favourite out of these three? I love hearing from you!




NOTD: Purple Holographic With Glitter

I am a huge fan of the colour purple so I loved wearing this awesome polish combo. I'm wearing Color Club's Eternal Beauty Holographic Polish and MAC's #Obsessed Glitter Polish. I think they look so cool together. These are definitely two of my favourite polishes at the moment. 

What do you guys think of this polish combination? Have you tried either of these polishes? Let me know in the comment section below.

MAC's Fashion Fizz Glitter Polish

MAC's Fashion Fizz Glitter Polish is a really unique yellow glitter. It consists of large hexagonal pieces of matte yellow glitter, smaller and then tiny matte yellow glitter particles as well as an iridescent peach shimmer throughout the polish. I have painted this polish over a peach shade and I think that it looks great.

Fashion Fizz applied really nicely to the nails with the brush provided. The formula of this glitter polish was just perfect-it wasn't too thick or too thin. I really love how smoothly MAC glitter polishes dry. They are also really hard wearing which is ideal if you want to wear your polish for one week at a time.

I think this is a really unique polish which I definitely recommend if you would like to try something a little different.

What do you think about MAC's Fashion Fizz   Glitter Polish? Have you tried any of MAC's nail polishes before? I love hearing from you guys!



Stephanie Pratt's Autobiography

Stephanie Pratt's autobiography Made In Reality was a lot more interesting and shocking then I thought it was going to be. I knew Stephanie Pratt originally from The Hills so it was great to learn about her life before and after The Hills.

Stephanie had a much more troubled childhood than I thought she would have had so reading about the issues she struggled with was very insightful. She writes a lot about The Hills which I loved reading about and also about being in Made In Chelsea. 

I don't really want to give too much away about this book but I highly recommend it. Stephanie even used to work behind the scenes on the set of Lost. I feel that this book is worth reading even if you are not too familiar with Stephanie Pratt. I was totally engrossed in it and was rather down when I finished it.

Have any of you guys read Stephanie Pratt's autobiography? What did you think of it? Or would you like to read it? Share your opinions with me! I love to hear them!

Red Floral Cath Kidston Mug

I went in to a Cath Kidston store for this first time a few weeks ago and I was like a kid in a sweet shop. It was such a gorgeous store but I managed to refrain from buying anything new seeing as I am going to run out of storage space for all of my Cath Kidston homeware soon.

I only recently bought this awesome Red Floral Cath Kidston Mug for myself. I love this mug because it has such a lovely pattern on it and because it is red. I can pretend during the winter that it is Christmas themed but in the summer I can still drink out of it as it matches my other mugs.

What do you guys think about my Red Floral Cath Kidston Mug? Do you have a favourite Cath Kidston Mug? Let me hear your thoughts.

Skinny Dip Golden Jewell Encrusted Phone Case

Oooh.....how cool is this Golden Jewell Encrusted Phone Case from Skinny Dip? Not only is it super shiny, the large jewels on it are extremely sparkly. It is just gorgeous to look at. It feels really sleek when it's on your phone even though the jewels are a bit chunky.

I love the shapes of the jewels and the pattern which they create. It looks rather regal. This is indeed a very fancy phone case but I think it is great for special occasions and makes such a lovely gift.

What do you guys think about this Skinny Dip phone case? Would you use this as your everyday phone case? I'd love to know what you think!







Color Club's Halo-Graphic Holographic Polish

Color Club's Halo-Graphic Holographic pink polish is really pretty. I am so happy I have found such cool holographic polishes which are actually holographic.

Halo-Graphic has a beautiful formula and paints on so smoothly to the nails with the lovely brush provided. This polish is really pigmented so you might be able to get away with one coat of polish but I would definitely recommend two coats for perfectly streak free nails. I found that this polish dried pretty quickly and lasted really well.

I would definitely recommend Halo-Graphic along with all of the Holographic polishes from Color Club.

What do you guys think about Color Club's Halo-Graphic Holographic Polish? Have you tried this polish? Let me know what you think!

MAC's Quick Million Glitter Polish

MAC's Quick Million Glitter Polish is such a beautiful polish. I am actually siting staring at my nails as I type this because I am wearing it right now. It is a fine yellow gold glitter with medium and large hexagonal rose gold glitter particles throughout it. It goes amazingly well with pink nail polish.

Quick Million is an absolute dream to apply as the formula and glitter glides onto the nails perfectly. It is a full coverage glitter and it's just the right consistency. It is also super smooth to the touch once it is dry. An added bonus is that it dries fairly quickly and is also pretty hard wearing. 

I am so excited that this MAC polish is so great. I will definitely be purchasing more MAC glitter nail polishes in the future.

What do you guys think of MAC's Quick Million Glitter Polish? Is it a polish you would like to try? Have you got any favourite MAC polishes? Let me know!



Essie's Stroke Of Brilliance Glitter Polish

Essie's Stroke Of Brilliance is an amazing navy glitter polish. I have so much love for Essie glitter polishes because they are always so lovely and luxurious. Stroke Of Brilliance is no different.

This polish is made up of a mixture of differently sized glitter particles which is really cool. The formula is quite good and the glitter applies rather well with the brush provided. The glitter lies flat so your nails are pretty smooth. There is something about Essie glitter polish which makes it super shiny. It is always hard wearing!

I really like Essie's Stroke Of Brilliance Navy Glitter polish. I have painted it over Color Club's Blue Heaven Polish which I think looks great!

What do you guys think about Essie's stroke Of Brilliance  polish?  Do you have this polish? Let me know what you think guys!
