Put on a show with Maybelline Colour Show

So being super busy I find it easy to keep my nails coloured with being so busy all the time! I rarely paid for them to be done at a salon so home colours are my go to for quick nail fixes. I recently spied the Maybelline Colour Show collection whilst browsing for some other cosmetics and the colours caught my eye!

 

 

The collection is a gel based formula which I have to say gives a lovely "professional" finish to a DIY nail. The collection is inspired by the runway and New York (which totally excites me - love the big apple!) The crisp and carefully selected colour range allows you to have a little high fashion in your beauty box...

 

 

 

 

 I love the colour and it is a nice change from the usual red or nude. The design of the bottle is slick and easy to throw into any handbag! But the thing I love the most about this is the design of the brush.... Instead of the usual round brush tip, its it more flat which in turn makes it so easy to glide the polish on to your nails.

 

 

 

This particular shade is called Mauve Kiss 150 and I also have my eye on the most rich Ocean Blue shade too.

 

 

 

 

Have any of you tried this collection? If so I'd love to hear what your favourites are!

 

Until next time...

Leopard Print & Glossy Nails

So I know it's a little late but before the chill in the air disappears for a while I had to share these with you... 

 

I got these lovely gloves from my brother as a Christmas gift. They are a gorgeous leopard print fabric with  black leather panels on the underside with cosy fleecy insides. I believe he bought these from Florence & Fred at Tesco. I love this brand, they have so many lovely staple/minimal pieces which suit my style perfectly.

 

 

 

 

 

 Being petite, this elasticated detail around the cuff is the perfect addition...

 

 

 

 I'm all about the details! I really do appreciate the little things that designers put the time & thought into make a piece more special or made for purpose. The touch screen compatible are perfect for a blogger on the move in this digital age!

 

 

 

I have teeny tiny hands so the S/M is a little loose on my hands but I really do love them, leopard print seems to go with a tonne of my outfits and I think my brother bought well with these babies. The fleecy lining of the gloves are perfection for my hands. I have Raunaurds Syndrome, which in a nutshell means my body struggles to hold heat, especially in my extremities... So you can understand my love for warming garments!

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love these gloves paired with a minimal outfit (they look gorgeous with an all black look.) To then take the gloves off to reveal glossy red nails - I adore this shade by Nails Inc called The Hurlingham.
