Kate Spade New York Glitter Nail Polish Set

Guilty Pleasures | Spiked Punch | Night On The Town | Razzle Dazzle 

This post has seriously been a long time coming, patiently awaiting its turn in the limelight whilst burrowed under posts containing snaps of the latest and greatest products to hit my vanity!! 
Kate Spade is one of those brands that unless you live in London, isn't readily available in the UK (unless you fancy paying extortionate shipping fees from across the pond) and perhaps one of the reasons why im a little bit infatuated with the colourful brand. So when I saw this set of Kate Spade polishes pop up on eBay, I knew it was to good an opportunity to pass me by. Somewhat of an eBay novice, I shamefully have to admit that I fell into a crazy bidding war, and after what felt like forever triumphantly walked away with these beauties for a bargain price!! 

Enough of my ramblings, lets talk polish. The set itself contains four vibrant polishes each adorning the iconic Kate 'Spade' logo. In all honesty the bottles are a little small, but at the same time plenty big enough. 
The stand out shades for me are unsurprisingly the glitter ones. Guilty Pleasures is a beautiful topcoat brimming with various shades of gold glitter, which makes it the perfect polish to take a simple manicure from drab to fab. The same goes for Razzle Dazzle, a multicoloured topcoat which is not too disimilar to OPI's Rainbow Connection. You know the one, that gold dust shade from the Muppets Collection that manages to sell for silly money on eBay. 
Although the stars of the set, Spiked Punch and Night On The Town also deserve a piece of the limelight. These gorgeous creamy shades dry quickly and are opaque in just two coats. 

The only negative about this set? Im not to sure of its availability, however if your desperate to get your mitts on this set, theres nothing wrong in stalking eBay like a crazy woman (oh okay maybe its just me that does that haha).

Im making a list of things that I miss whenever we're far apart...

scarf- Miss Selfridge
oversized jumper- Topshop 
Jeans & flats- Zara 
Bag & Watch- Michael Kors
The way that you kiss, the taste on your lips, i'm telling you from the heart..." 
With Valentines just around the corner I decided that it was the perfect opportunity to adorn a little pink (any excuse eh). I fell in love with this oversized jumper after seeing this post on temporary Secretary's blog way back in october. After lusting after it for quite some time, I finally caved just before christmas, and Im so glad I did as this has become a staple item in my wardrobe. I decided to pair this oversized gem with my beloved miss selfridge scarf. The perfect match, these items have received many a compliment when worn together.

One more dawn, One more day, One day more!!



Cardigan, RIVER ISLAND
top ZARA
leggings ZARA
necklace MISS SELFRIDGE

Hello lovelies I hope your all well. If the musical fanatics amongst you haven't already guessed by the title, tonight im off to the cinema to see the much anticipated Les Miserables. With it being one of my favourite musicals, im both excited to see the interpretation, aswell as being somewhat sceptical at the same time. 
With this bitter cold weather (I swear we are the only ones without snow, boo) im planning on wearing my new River Island Cardigan. Its not my usual style but im completely smitten with it, from the cut, to the pattern and of course the fur collar. Its super snug and perfect to jazz up a simple outfit. Above I have done just that and paired it with my trusty Zara tee and leggings.

Have you seen Les Miserables yet? What did you think??

Close your eyes and tap your heels together three times...






 Fur Stole H&M
Knit Jumper H&M
Jeans ZARA
Bag MISS SELFRIDGE
Shoes KURT GEIGER

And think to yourself "there's no place like home".
Tenby, a beautiful seaside town  full of balamory esque houses, brimming with history, quirky gift shops and the best fish & chips shop for miles, is one of those places that never fails to bring a smile to my face come rain or shine. 
With nothing but a handful of tourists and locals out for their afternoon stroll, I spent my Sunday afternoon wandering around this fabulous town with the boyfriend taking in the beautiful scenery, whilst taking a photo or two. 

Full to the brim, curled up on the sofa with Christmas money in hand, I found myself on boxing day browsing the Kurt Geiger website, which ultimately ended up with me purchasing the above sparkly red Carvela pumps. In all honesty I do not regret buying these one bit, even if they weren't the biggest bargain in the world. Beautiful yet comfy whats not to love?? needless to say they've received several admirers and have gained the nickname "Dorothy", which I would totally agree with, What do you think??
