Beauty Buys

I've never tried Nails Inc before - I usually don't spend a huge amount of money on nail polish. My favourite brand is definitely Rimmel and worst I ever tried is No7 (doesn't even last 2 days without chipping plus it takes ages to dry)... anyway, back to Nails Inc, I thought I give it a go since it was for free with Glamour magazine this month.

Colour: Jemyn Street

Pros: last ages!!! really really over a week before it started getting ruined; also, like the taupe/beigy colour.

Cons: the brush is really not good - tiny, soft making difficult to apply in 1 or few strokes.

Also, took advantage of 3x2 make up offers in Boots and got few essentials:

Benefit: The POREfessional - this is aaaaaaamazing!!! the skin feels so soft and flawless once applied, I reckon the tiny bottle won't last long;

Vaseline: with cocoa butter edition - i'm addicted to vaseline lips tins, I've tried them all... hehe;

Max Factor: lip liner in 12-Fire - J'adore red lips!

Rimmel: 3 in 1 Powder Blush in Spring Flower - read a good review about this, but honestly after trying it, it doesn't seem anything special to me.

WristWear

KAREN MILLEN White Tropical Cuff

i had my eyes on this little piece of jewellery for a while but waited to ge it on sale in HouseOfFraser. Likes the Black version of it too.

This watch is from Marks & Spencer - like the circular, rigid bracelet.

High Street BYE BYE ;)

Title of this post is a bit provocative... hehe - i was in Testo yesterday and found this lovely flats for 6pounds!!! They are sooooo comfortable and also the colour is right on season neutral preference.

P.S.: perfect match to the Benetton bag (see post 18/04/10)

(not to mention tights for a couple of quid... why have I never found out before??!!)

Ruby @ New Look

I popped into New Look after work to get a present for a friend' birthday when I saw this bag and I HAD to have it. *blush*
It's from a brand called Ruby that, to be honest, I have never seen around but I reckon is one of these concession of new businesses from London... It was quite pricey (around fifty quid - for a name which I had never heard before) but it looks good; it's got cross-body and shoulder straps, the material is distressed leather, got tiny botton and buckle detailing
It's bang on season which orangy/rush colour and bucket shape. It also comes with dust bag.

Received my wee delivery from Tatty Devine today; I was going to buy these bits before the holidays but then I decided to be sensible and wait… and it paid off because I found them all on sale (50% off!!!)

Like the tiny touches like the boxes wrapped in the paper and they also included the free pin.

The fan earrings are quite classy in tortoishell – great combination with a pin up/tango dress & red lips.

I intend to wear the cocktail umbrella earrings with the japanese necklace (see tomorrow post).

I like the face on the Pierrot ring, so cute and the size is perfect, quite tiny so comfortable to wear. Also, I missed on a Pierrot brooch from Topshop 2 year ago, and this is a perfect substitute. I can wear it with the H&M’ scarf for a Circus-style look.
