Glitter NOTD - H&M Confetti nail polish

Just a quick post to show you this amazing nail polish I was drawn to like a magpie in H&M. 

It is called 'Confetti' and I think it is a bit of a dupe for American Apparel's 'Supernova' which retails at £9 whereas this H&M version is a steal at £2.99! 

It has large hexagonal pieces and smaller glitter particles consisting of red, blue, green, gold and silver suspended in a clear base. I didn't feel that it came out that thick, this photograph is with two coats. However at the price I don't think it matters and it would probably look better over a dark colour.

I haven't seen many about so pick one up if you spot one, it'd be a great little Christmas pressie! (Yes I am starting to think about that!)

Mini haul! Beauty, Primark and H&M

Just a quick snapshot on some recent purchases I've made this month... to be honest I've bought more than this but I struggle keeping track! I am a big bargain hunter though so everything here individually is under £30.

Firstly yesterday I picked up a couple of steals from Primark, these 'disposable' silver sandals are now £1, and can you believe it this studded clutch with tassel was £6! Dupe for Topshop's £38 version I think. Will be great for going out for drinks.

The pink cut-out dress was £10 from the Topshop sale and the peplum top is H&M Trend at £24.99. Lucy was wearing the top in Towie last night, anyone else get excited when they see an item of clothing they have on the telly? 

Other bits are: two glitter nail varnishes from H&M (post on them later), the collection £3.99 concealer everyone blogs about, a yummy orange & fig candle 50p in Morrisons, St Ives scrub currently £1.99 in Superdrug, Shu Uemura limited edition gold eyelash curlers, and lastly 3 for 2 in Superdrug on Loreal products - true match foundation, glam shine lip gloss in 'pink treat, and the telescopic mascara as recommended by Kaushal at http://beauty-fulfilled.com/

Shoe find of the week #6

I had to give shoe of the week to my bargain find this week. I've been looking for some new leather shoes for work but leather is always so expensive. Imagine my delight when I popped in Zara, not expecting to find anything in their end of sale messy bundle, but to see a pair of leather flats all on their own in my size! Originally £79.99 the tag said £29.99, then at the till the assistant said that's £15 please. Don't you love it when that happen? They are pretty androgynous and having large feet they may look a little clown-y, but I really don't care at that price.

Also want to say hello to my new followers! I'm happy that anyone would be interested in reading my ramblings, and love reading your comments. I will always make an effort to check out your blogs and such. I think if I got to 50 followers I'd defo do a giveaway to say cheers.

I'm loving: Jewel Print

From top left: Zara dress £69.99, Zara playsuit £29.99, Asos clutch, Asos dress £95, Asos peplum top £28, Topshop cropped jeans £20, Paprika dress £29, Asos skirt £18.

This may be a little bit garish to some, but it's right up my street. Ted Baker have done similar prints in past seasons but have always been slightly out of my price budget. This Autumn the High Street has come up trumps with some fab jewel print fabrics. 

I fell for the Zara playsuit in the shop the other day but it's not suited for girls with bums unfortunately! I have my eye on the Topshop jeans and the Asos skirt... What do you think of this print style?

OOTD - car print skirt and spike shoes in the Gherkin

Had an ace day having some drinks for my sister's birthday in the top floor bar in the Gherkin, (floor 40!) Not normally available to the public but we were very lucky to get a booking through my sister's work. I thought I'd be scared of the 360º views, but it was breathtaking and I was in awe of London.

I wore a car print pleated skirt from Primark, old pink vest and very old denim jacket (about 10 years old!), spiked earrings from H&M and spiked loafers from an ebay shop. I like mixing accessories that toughen up a sweet look.

I got lots of compliments on these loafers, they are the first time I've worn them and I'd really recommend them. Get them here for just £23.

Just a handful of my snaps from sights 180m above London...
