Spring Trend Report Nails 2013




Came across this image on OPI's Facebook page. Now I'm not one to blindly follow the trends, but some inspiration is welcomed. Let's see what are OPI's suggestions when it comes to nails this spring. 









I have enough pastel nail polish, at least the colours that I like, as mint for example doesn't suit me that well. I also have a few nudes and beige colours. Interesting mention of the monochrome nails, I thought that's meant for clothes this season, not much of a fan of complicated nail art, and that's because let's admit it, I'm not too good at it. I left the blue for last, that looks gorgeous! And I have been eyeing an amazing blue such as the HM Blue My Mind  or the Nails Inc Baker Street since ages! I guess this will be a good time to buy one of them.






Now, I didn't quite like the OPI's example of a monochrome manicure, so looked for some other versions. I think these look quite good and are not that hard to recreate. What do you think? 








Which of the four trends is your favourite ? x

HM Free delivery Haul

Hi!

H&M has an offer for free delivery with the code 0439, and as an extra you can use 1304 for £5 off. As the bargain hunter that I am, I couldn't resist buying a few things.



I picked a blue shirt, a cosy jumper for home, new pair of leggings, a hair band which I plan to use for overnight no heat curls and two metallic tea light holders to be used as make-up brush containers. These were separate orders and I only paid £6.48 for all the items above, total bargain.




1. Cornflower Blue Blouse 2. Pink sweatshirt  3. Suede hairband  4. Black leggings  5. Small tealight holder
Medium tealight holder



If you are short of ideas of what to buy, I will show you what I ordered last time they had two promo codes together as well as my wishlist if I were to buy more things this time.


Last time I ordered a lovely pink sweater with silver threads through it, the blue velvet pumps which unfortunately didn't fit and and that's also the reason I am not sure if to order more H&M shoes or not. The Minnie Mouse mat is adorable isn't it? Sadly not available any more. And lastly a colourful balloons shower towel which I love, it's lightweight as well so I can pack it on holidays.




2. Blue velvet pumps 3. Balloons towel



And lastly my wish-list includes the lovely metallic gold and pink suede sandals which I have on Pinterest since last summer, but I think they'll suit a narrow foot better, simple red pumps, pastel bangles and two very affordable bags. Everything is under £15 pounds so with the discount these should be a good buy!


1. Sandals 2. Beige bag 3. Studded cross body bag 4. Silver glitter nailpolish 5. Suede ballet pumps 6. Pastel bangles




What will you ladies be shopping at H&M this spring? x

NOTD: Essie Tour de Finance

Hi





Today's nails are fuchsia pink Essie's Tour de Finance. Am I the only one thinking this is such a hookerish colour? Nonetheless it looks gorgeous as it has tiny blue shimmer throughout it and I find it not only looks good with my skin tone but matches pretty much anything as far as clothes and accessories go.  It applies well and I am wearing two coats in these pictures and my trusted Sally Hansen top coat.

I bought this little gem off fragrancedirect for the bargain price of £1.99. I am in love with fragrancedirect and  recommend them for buying cheap Essie as well as brands which are not that easily available the in UK such as Sally Hansen, NYC. etc.

I'll leave you have a look at the pictures.










What do you think of Essie nail polishes?  x
