Holiday OOTD #1

Hello girls! I've finally found time to post some OOTD from our recent holiday. Before we have finally left the UK we'd decided to go to Lanzarote as we needed to relax after some stressfull times around our big move. We'd an amazing time and I'd definitely recommend you to visit this beautiful volcanic island.
I'll post some more OOTD in the next few days so hopefully I won't bore you :)









Dress - H&M - I got these for around £10 so it was an excellent bargain!
Earrings - New Look
Bangles - H&M
Bag - New Look
Gladiators - Peacocks
Belt - New Look
Cardigan - H&M
Watch - DKNY
Ring - unknown (my silver ring I wear almost all the time)
Nails - Essie Mint Candy Apple

Nails Inc - The Candy Shop Colour Collection

Hello my lovely ladies :) It's been a long time since my last post, but I have a good reason for it. I was moving back home to Slovakia after 6 years of living in the UK. So you can imagine how busy I was... packing, looking for a new flat, new job etc. But everything is sorted now and hopefully I'll have enough time to update my blog more regurlarly :)

Today I've got for you a beautiful set of pastel polishes from nails inc which I got from my lovely friend for my birthday 2 weeks ago.

Collection contains:
Richmond – Pastel pink with amazing luminescent finish
Wimbledon – Pastel lime
Oxford – Pretty baby blue
Cambridge – Delicate lilac

I couldn't decide what colour to use first so I painted my nails with all of them at once, plus I added Essie - Mint Candy Apple as I thought it'd complement these pastels colours perfectly. I love all of them but I think that my favourite one is Cambridge :)

One more important note - I'm wearing gel nails as many of my natural nails broke when we were moving :( I couldn't live without my long nails, so I went for a gel manicure. I'm quite happy with it as the polish last much longer on my nails now, but I hope my natural nails will grow back soon :)


Richmond - Oxford - Cambridge - Wimbledon

Barry M - Peach Melba

Hello lovely girls :) Thank you for all your comments on my previous post, I'm glad you all like Essie's Mind Candy Apple :) Today I have for you Barry M - Peach Melba. I know there are already million swatches of this polish, but I want to share mine as well. I stamped it with Konad special black polish and a Bundle Monster plate no. BM12. I know that the design is not perfect on every nail, but I was really loosing my patience and couldn't be bothered to re-apply it again :). You may notice a crack on my index finger nail, but thank God it has already been fixed :) I'll show you how I did it in my next post.

Essie - Mint Candy Apple

Hello lovely ladies! Today I have for you a swatch of another nail polish from Essie, this time Mint Candy Apple. I can't believe I haven't bought it earlier - it's been on the market for about 3 years now! It was launched in 2009 with the Winter collection but I'd say it's a lovely pastel colour for summer. Don't you think? :)

Purple is my new black

Hello everyone :) I thought I need a new black dress and I've finally found one after very very long time of searching! I tried them on and they fit perfectly. But then I spotted the same dress in purple colour on the hanger and I obviously had to try them on as well. You can easily guess what colour I bought. PURPLE! And I was even happier when I found this very affordable matching lipstick from Sleek. I normally don't wear purple lipsticks so I didn't want to spend much. I really like the pigmentation and finish of this True Color lipstick and I'll definitely try some new shades soon :)

OOTD for my name day :)

Hello ladies...hope you are having a wonderful weekend :) It was my name day on Friday (for my other than Slovakian readers - we celebrate this day in Slovakia and it means that each day of the year has given name in the calendar and mine was 27.5.) It has less importance than birthday, but we still get presents (I got a lovely handbag which I'll show you in some future post) and celebrate it! I didn't plan any celebration this year, but my husband thought we should go out for a drink.... and so this was my outfit of the day (night):

please note a bunch of roses from my husband in the background :)


 Blazer: Zara, top: Gap, jeans: Levi's, shoes and handbag: New Look, earings: Primark
