George Blueney

Is there such a thing as the 'worst blogger award?' I haven't posted something in almost a month and I feel terrible about it. And yes, there it is again, that lame little excuse: "I've been extyremely busy." Yep, I've been really busy. Again with school and testweek and loads of other fun stuff. When I painted my nails it was either a polish I already posted or it was too dark to take pictures outside. So, I apologize for that and I hope you'll forgive me :(

Ofcourse I did not only want this to be a sad sad apology-post...so here's a little nailswatch! It's George Blueney from Catrice, a very pretty dark blue base loaded with tiny blue and green glitters/glass flecks. I used two coats and a layer of topcoat.

Isn't it pretty? I got this on a 1+1 discount and I'm reaaaally liking it :D Honestly, I'm a sucker for these kind of polishes and I'll admit I have about 5 polishes that kind of look like this. Woops. 

On other news: It's snowing in Holland! Also, Sem and Mila are allowed to go outside now and they love it. They absolutely love it. They also really like the snow so I went outside and took some pictures of them (and Luna ofourse!).

Mila's shocked face when she saw the snow, lol!

Sem being a brave little kittycat.

Luna...'eating'...as usual.

Sem and Mila are growing up so fast! Do you guys remember when we just got them, and they were these little fluffballs?

Naaaaw! Luna is getting quite used to them and I think she secretly likes them. She finally has a new buddy to play with: Sem!


Isn't it cute? Ok ok, enough catpictures. For now. 
Have a great weekend!

Amethyst Fiji

Well hello there! I am in a very good mood becauuuuuuse it was my birthday the 27th, and I'm finally 16 now :D Yaaaaaaaay! On to the nail-related-part of this post. For my New Year's nails I used two layers of Essie - Fiji and after that dried I applied some Barry M - Amethyst glitter gradient on my accent nail :)




Luna-kittypic!

I am absolutely in loooove with this mani, it's so cute and the glitters reminds me of fireworks.. Fiji is a very pale pink that tends to look kind of white sometimes. I really like the way these polishes look together and I think I might apply the glitter to all of my nails. Should I? Leave me your thoughts in the comments!

Essie - Leading Lady

December, yaaaaay! My favourite month. Christmas, my birthday, the new year, yes please! I just love the entire month. You know, all the christmas lights, food, happiness...(almost) everyone is kind to eachother. Definitely my favourite month. Now, the nailpolish. As soon as I applied it it became one of my most beloved  nailpolishes. Christmas on your nails. Essie - Leading Lady!




all of the above pictures were taken in daylight without flash.

Mila-kittypic!

Isn't it gorgeous? I think it's absolutely amazing. For these pictures I first used a base coat, 1 coat of Catrice - Caught On The Red Carpet, 2 coats of Essie Leading Lady and 1 layer of topcoat. I know that sounds like a lot of time but I think this actually took me only about 20 minutes and the outcome....wow. 
If you're still looking for that perfect Christmas nailpolish, go get this one!

Still alive! Random little post + Kitty Update #10

Wow....I'm sorry I haven't posted in such a long time but I have been so extremely busy with school and friends and musical-thingies! Anyway, I'm not going to dedicate an entire post to apologizing and explaining why, but I'm just going to do a little post with some recent swatches and a short kitty update. Let's begin :)
GOSH - Lambada. 3 coats, no topcoat.

Catrice - No Snow Patrol & Mila-kittypic!

Essence Breaking Dawn Part II - Jacob's Protection

 
Luna-kittypic!

cheeky little stash-pic!

I haven't really been wearing loads of different nailpolishes lately (simply because I didn't really have a lot of time) but these are the ones I did wear and made pictures of. On to the kitty update :D

The kittycats are doing great. They've gotten really big! But not yet as big as Luna ofcourse haha... Here are some pictures!
Mila ♥

Sem :D



Luna <3

I love this picture, lol. 

Luna is getting along a lot better with the kitties. Sem is always testing his boundaries and playing with Luna. Mila usually just avoids her but is definitely not afraid of her...whenever Luna tries to eat her food she just pushes her away and protects her food. 



I'm really going to try to post something every week again but I'm not promising anything. Have a great week!

Top 5 Fall Favorite Nailpolishes!

Hello everyooone! I actually planned on doing an actual nailpost today but because of my work all my nails broke and they're really short at the moment :( So I figured I'd do a little Fall Favorites nailpolish edition for you guys! Let's go :)

Let's start off with number 5, Herôme - Kingston.
Kingston is a goldenbeige/champagne holographic polish that matches all of the fall 2012 fashion! Pictures HERE

Next up, number 4, Catrice - Caught On The Red Carpet.
COTRC is a dark jelly red, suitable for honestly any season of the year and I really like it (that's also why half of my bottle is empty). Pictures HERE

Number 3, Essence - Walk On The Wild Side.
WOTWS is a dark green polish with tiny little green shimmers. Very pretty! I actually haven't had the chance to swatch this yet, but I'm excited about trying this one out :D

Almost there! Number 2, China Glaze - Smoke And Ashes
Smoke And Ashes is a GORGEOUS polish from the CG Hungergames collection and I absolutely adore this polish! It looks like a starry night in summer. A black base with duochrome little shimmers shifting from blue to turquoise to green. Amazing. Pictures HERE

Number 1...drumroll, please...China Glaze - Purr-fect Plum!
I do not only like Purr-fect Plum because of its purr-fect name, but also very very much because of the purr-fect colour! This colour screams fall 2012 to me. Walk around my school for just 10 minutes and you will see this colour in sooo many outfits, it's crazy. This wine-purple coloured polish should be in everyone's stash this fall! Purr-fect Plum is from the CG On Safari collection :) Pictures HERE

While I was making these pictures Luna decided to join me, here are some pictures :D

she looks so mad, lol!

pawsy pic <3

That was it, ofcourse I have many many many more fall favorites but I just wanted to show you these five. Tell me, do you like these kind of posts? What would you like to see on my blog? Let me know in the comments :)

Alpha Better Hologram

A big welcome to all of my new followers that found me through girlscene or my giveaway, thanks for following me! Today I have a very pretty layering mani for you guys. I showed you this polish a little while ago and since everyone really liked it I decided to swatch my other Shaka polish (Hologram Nude) as well. Because these holos are not very opaque I decided to layer it over two coats of Essence - Alpha Better Gamma (wich i'll show in the end of this post). Here's the final look!

more sunlight, yay! no flash.

sunlight, with flash. 

a bit blurry (sparkles!), no flash. 

Sem-kittypic!

I love holographics. This is just a perfect pretty pinky polish. In normal light only a little bit of the holographic rainbow is visible, but in sunlight...wow! Such a pretty effect. 
So what I did was apply two layers of Shaka - Hologram Nude over two layers of Essence - Alpha Better Gamma from the Class of 2013 LE. Here's a picture of that one on it's own:
daylight, no flash.

another Sem-kittypic!

ABG is a very cute salmony pink, really girly! When I saw this one at the store I immediately knew I wanted it because I don't have any polishes like this one and erhm well I'm an addict..woops. Anyways, I really like the colour of this polish because it's just sooo cuuuute :D

Don't forget to enter my giveaway, just 3 days left to enter!
