Butter London Champers! Pure Rose Gold goodness in a bottle

When I think of fall and winter, I think of berry, maroon, reds and darker nail colors, but I also love the shimmer of the gold or rose golds to put me in the mood for the festivities and the holidays. Butter London Champers is one of those mesmerizing rose gold colors that makes me think of glasses of champagne and the holidays. It's so lovely on the nails.


Hope you all are staying warm and having a great day

Lots of love

Zoya Nephratiti Swatch

I was browsing the nail polish isle yesterday at Ulta and zoomed into this color immediately. This is a very deep red which makes a huge statement. It has a deep cranberry hue which makes this the perfect holiday nail polish. The below is two coats. I love this color and I know I'll get a lot of wear out of this polish this holiday season.


Hope you all have had a lovely Monday.

Lots of love

Essie For The Twill Of It swatches - Essie's 2013 Fall Collection


Essie's for the Twill of It is such a gorgeous color. It's a silver based color with a ton of purple, blue and green duechrome. This is perfect for Autumn because it's dark but it also has a ton of lovely colors. It's a nice change from all the black or dark navy colors that companies always bring out during this time. It changes as you move your hands and depending on what the light catches.


I love this color.  The application was amazing. It went opaque with one coat. :)

Hope you all are as excited about Autumn as I am and are having a lovely week.

Butter London Shag Nail Polish Swatch! The most perfect fall color

Hi everyone,
I am so excited that september is here because it means autumn is around the corner. Autumn is of my favorite seasons. I was at Ulta recently browsing the isles and noticed a Butter London polish that is so perfect for fall. The color is called Shag and it's a burnished copper bronzy color that makes me think of leaves changing colors. The finish of it is a gorgeous metallic shimmery with a red undertone that warms up the skin.

The polish looks amazing with one coat but I always put two for good measure. I love this color. 

What do you guys think?

Hope you all have had an amazing weekend.

Stella & Dot and House of Harlow Haul

Hi Guys,
I've purchased a couple of items from Stella & Dot and House of Harlow. I love all of these pieces of Jewelry but the House of Harlow 1960 Station Necklace is the star of the show. I already own this necklace in black and love it but the red is just as eye catching. It dresses up any outfit and it's so nicely made.
Here is my latest video on these pieces:

Hope you all have had a great week.
Lots of Love

NOTD Nail inc Porchester Square swatches and review

This is such a unique color. It's one of those dirty colors that are a mixture of lilac, mushroom, and taupe, or somewhat of a chic greige. I've gotten so many compliments while wearing this color. I think of this as a more wearable "metro chic" by Sephora by OPI, a dark color that's not too dark to wear for spring or summer. See swatches below:



I love this color.

Hope you all have had a lovely day.

Makeup For Ever Smokey Lash Mascara in the Very Black review and swatches.

Hi everyone,
I recently went to Sephora for a little haulage, and decided to rekindle my love with an old friend...i'm talking about Makeup Forever Smokey Lash. I hadn't purchased this mascara in a few months. I wore it this morning and realized why I love it so much. This mascara is so black!!! It makes your lashes dark pretty much immediately. Whilst I have a lot of lashes, they are very very light. Being born a blonde, my hair got darker, but my lashes remained light. Another big plus is that this mascara voluminizes so well and it lengthens at the same time. Some cones...the price. This is not a cheap mascara, and it is very very difficult to remove. 

Here is a picture of me with no mascara:
And after using Makeup Forever:
Here is the wand of this mascara:

Overall, if you're looking to splurge on a mascara, I would highly recommend this.

Hope you all have had a lovely Monday.

Loads of love
