Review | Bourjois So Laque & 2True Nail Care

I don't know if anyone knows, but I am a HUGE nail polish enthusiast. I absolutely love them. I've only recently discovered this, so I have a rather minuscule collection. However, I do have a favourite.
 These two are a killer combination. 2True Base coat and Ridgefiller underneath, and then Bourjois So Laque over the top. Beautiful.

 I always make sure to use a base coat, as this evens out the surface of the nail and improves the wear of the polish. If you're using this particular one, make sure to allow it to dry completely before applying nail polish because if its still a bit wet, you'll have a big mess all over your nails! (trust me, this happened the other day)
  2True Nail Care: Base coat & Ridgefiller - £2.29
 Bourjois So Laque is brilliant. It's pretty fast drying and has quite a high shine on it. One the bottle it says it can last up to 7 days, but I find it usually lasts around 10-12, which is a bonus! The one I have is a gorgeous nudey-pink colour that pretty much goes with everything. Thumbs up from me! Its quite pricey, but definitely worth it!
  Bourjois So Laque Ultra Shine in Beige Glamour - £5.99

What nail polishes do you like? I want to know!

OOTD | Eid Monochrome

Hi everyone!
So as you might have known, it was Eid over this weekend, which means new clothes! I absolutely adore shopping, but I had to stop myself from buying everything I saw. I wanted clothes that looked quite stylish, but you can dress them down. Plus comfort was a necessity! Without further ado, here's where I got each piece, starting from the top!

Sunglasses: New Look - £5.99
Scarf: The Islamic Establishment - £2.50
Striped Crop Top: Topshop - £10 (on sale)
Vest Cardigan: Primark - £8
Bag: New Look - £15
Jeans: New Look - £22.99
Ankle Boots: New Look - £22 (on sale)
Nails: Primark - £1

You might be able to see that New Look is one of my favourite shops! I find it has a brilliant variety of styles, and a good amount of clothing sizes. Do leave a comment!

Favourites | Jewellery



I'm not really a person for wearing a lot of jewellery, so when I do wear any its usually stuff that I really love. I have a few pieces here that are definitely my favourites at the moment.
The bracelet at the top was given to me by my eldest sister when she came to visit a few years back. Its vintage and such a lovely piece. The detailing on it is incredible and I find it really works with more simple outfits.
The adorable owl ring to the left was also a gift, from one of my other sisters. I'm not sure where its from, but it has definitely been well worn! It's quite a big ring, so it doesn't really need other chunky jewellery to go with it.
The paper airplane necklace is definitely my favourite necklace. I saw it in Taylor Swift's Style music video and thought it was such a cool piece, so I decided I had to buy it! Obviously it's just a cheap knock-off version, but it works! I bought it off eBay for £0.99.
The ear cuff is, for me, quite a different choice. Normally I wouldn't have bought it, as I'm much more of a stud person myself, but I thought why not? Looking at it now, I would prefer it if the backing was silver rather than gold, but the leaf shaped gems are really beautiful! I bought this from New Look for £2.99.
What are your jewellery staples?
