NOTD #10 : The French Manicure

I just survived the first ever interview of my life, This one being a university interview. I was less nervous during the actual process than I thought I would be, but I guess I could count that as a positive. 

Of course, I wanted to look a little more clean cut, and so the ever divine french manicure seemed like the most classiest of options; I mean, you can never really get tired of such a timeless manicure. 

It surprisingly doesn't take me all that long to do, so with this in mind, I think I'll be sporting this more often. 

I used Collection's French Manicure Pink base and Barry M's 'White'.

NOTD #9 : Snowflake Nails

I know it's a little late but I wanted to quickly get this up before christmas day as it is, of course, the festive-y manicure I shall be sporting tomorrow. I decided on this design after watching a tutorial from the lovely MissJenFabulous on youtube so if you fancy re-creating this then simply click the link and have a whirl. 

Also, excuse the ratchet looking cuticles, my hands have been dry to no end and absolutely nothing has been working! 

Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas tomorrow! 

MONTHLY FAVOURITES: November

Cozying up on the couch with a lovingly warm cranberry and raspberry cuppa; racking my brain on how to introduce this post, I'm wondering how this year has flown by so quickly. It seems most unreal that the next time I'll be contemplating on how to start a monthly favourites post, christmas will have already been and gone. Crazy, I know. 

Right, enough with the deep thoughts. This month has been somewhat uneventful; a few shopping trips and the usual dinners out but nothing too extravagant. In terms of make up, I've been chopping and changing on a daily basis, desiring the vamped lip one day but a smoked eye the next. 

NOTD #7 : The Statement White

Barry M's - White (£2.99)

Just a sneakily quick post on whats been adorning my nails for the past week or so. White or so called 'tipp-ex' nails have been a lingering trend for quite some time and especially over the summer when complimenting our glowing tans that we worked oh so hard for. However, I find that this simply makes such an effortless statement, one in which typically takes no more than 5-10 minutes with 2 coats and fits both the warmer and cooler seasons. If I'm still lusting after a bold nail choice but am too damn lazy to get a little creative with nail art then this is what I tend to steer towards. Of course when it gets near to christmas then a few festive creations will be greeting these pages but for now, I think I'll be sticking with the lazily white offering. 

OOTD #1

So this is actually my first outfit of the day post.... hence the #1 in the title... but this was too gorgeous an ensemble to pass up! I have been in love with kimonos and this one happens to be my latest purchase from River Island for £30 and because it is quite sheer, can be easily paired over numerous outfits. Underneath is a simple chiffon tank from topshop in a bright neon orange. White jeans are a staple in my wardrobe and I could wear them everyday, These are from Zara and are some of the comfiest pair of jeans I own! 

Lastly, there's the Boots. These are also a recent purchase from River island and are a staple in my fall and winter wardrobe. Being 5'2 I need the height so these chunky heels make me at least average whilst still remaining comfortable.
