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!

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 :)

China Glaze - Purr-fect Plum (+ a little gradient)

FINALLY, a nail-related post! This is one of the polishes I ordered, Purr-fect Plum from the China Glaze On Safari collection. Isn't that just the perfect name? Purr-fect? On my accent nail I did a gradient with Catrice - Welcome To Roosywood, using (ofcourse) this tutorial.

This picture is imo most colour accurate, though it's a bit darker in real life in some light.

kittypic!

I adore Purr-fect Plum, and it looks really pretty in combination with Welcome To Roosywood. Formula was good, it needs two coats to get pretty and opaque. Drying time was...mweh. It needs quite some time to dry if you want to avoid ruining your nails. Overall, I'm liking this polish. I ordered one more from this collection, but I'm not going to swatch it for you until my nails are a bit longer because it'll look prettier!

So, what do you think..Gradients, yay or nay?

Have A Lucky Lilac Day

Happy easter everyone! For my easter mani I used 2 Catrice polishes, Lucky in Lilac and Have An Ice Day (from the Million Styles LE). I don't have a lot of time today (homework, bluh), so here are the pictures!

daylight (no sun today, unfortunately), no flash.

blurry pic to show you the holographic glitters (bokehs!), no flash.

kittypic!

I used 2 coats of Lucky In Lilac and 1 of Have An Ice Day. Drying time was actually really good and it dried within I guess about 10 minutes? That's all it took! The result looks good, but I'm not sure if it's really my type of mani. But it looks cute!

How was your easter? :D

Luxe and Lush in Roosywood

I am worlds worst blogger. I'm so sorry. But from now on, I will be posting more often because my testweek is over, hallelujah! OH BTW OMG I HAVE TO TELL YOU SOMETHING :D Yesterday Gemma, Lisa and I went to see The Hungergameeeeees! It was so amazing, I was actually shaking the whole movie through. And yes, when Rue died, I cried. And I'm not even ashamed of it haha... So it was really frickin awesome and if you haven't seen it yet, GO DO IT YOU FOOL!
Today I have a very pretty layering combo for you, it's China Glaze - Luxe and Lush over Catrice - Welcome To Roosywood. I used two coats of Welcome To Roosywood, 1 of Luxe and Lush and 1 thick coat of topcoat.

daylight, no flash.

normal light, with flash.

kittypic!

On the kittypic you can see Luna's fluffy belly in front of her little face haha.. Did I mention this mani combines two of my favorite things? Roosywood - Rosewood - Pretty Little Liars and ofcourse The Hungergaaaaames! That is just awesome. Anyway, I love the look of this "flakie-like" topcoat. It's a bit different than normal flakies, that's what makes Luxe and Lush so interesting! WTR is a pretty dusty purple-pink and I think this layering combo looks awesome. 

What do you think? Have you seen THG?

Catrice Million Styles - Return Of Space Cowboys

Hello cuties! Today I rushed my butt to the Kruidvat to get some of the Million Styles polishes from Catrice, and found the two I wanted :D I got Shake It! Flake It! and Return Of Space Cowboys, wich I will be showing you today. It's a duochrome turquoise glitter and I applied 1 coat over my favourite black, MAX - Black.

normal daylight, not too sunny (as usual), no flash.

a bit moven, sorry, with flash.

kittypic! purrrr...

I LOVE THIS. It's all pretty and blue and duochrome and wiiiiiiii! The base is a dark gray jelly and it contains silver and blue glass flecks. Isn't that amazing? Drying time wasn't amazing but it wasn't too bad.. We'll see about the removal with this one, I hope I'll be able to get it all off haha!

So, what do you think? Do you own any of the Million Styles topcoats?

Essence Nude Glam - Hazelnut Cream Pie

Well hello there! A lot of people have been searching Google for "Essence Nude Glam" and got to my blog to just see a bottle pic so I figured why just not swatch it for you all? :D I have Hazelnut Cream Pie, a pretty nude with a little surprise..

daylight, no flash.

daylight, with flash.

kittypic!

So here's the little surprise..it has the very famous Chanel - Paradoxal purple shimmer!

It's not very visible but still, surprising right?

So, it's very pretty but a bit too light for my skintone. Drying time was great, opaque in only 2 coats (that's amazing for a nude!) and it looks pretty :D

Because you all seemed to love the previous pic I send you of our new yet-to-be-named-kitty, I decided to include one in this post aswell :D

Again, can you think of a name for this cutie? What do you think of the name Jessie?

Nail Colour Marionnaud - Stone Grey

My mom and sister got this nailpolish for me when they went to an international gymnastics competition in the Czech Republic (?) and it's from a brand named Marionnaud. I used two coats for this blue/purple/grey polish. It's a true blurpley. Hihi! Allright, let's look at the pictures :D

daylight, no flash.

normal light, with flash. 

kittypic!

I think the first picture is the most colour accurate, and most of the time this polish looks blue but when it gets a bit darker it turns into a dark grey with a purple undertone. I like it! It's quite neutral and it matches my clothes today haha :) Btw, do you remember the picture I showed you last post, with the fresh snow? Here's what it looks like now..

All those kittyfootsteps, wow! Haha our garden is very popular for all the cats in our neighbourhood. You know, just to hang out and stuff. Lol. I mean, they even walk across the trampoline? Weird kitties. 

I have some other news to share with you guys, I won a giveaway! DeltaCephei had her amazing DC's Dazzling Days again and I won a LUSH snowfairy lip tint. I'm very happy and I can't wait to get it and try it. Thanks Suzanne! Be sure to check out her blog on http://deltacephei.nl/

Finally, a blogpost! Golden Rose Scale #11

Hi guys! I sent my computer to a computer-guy and he said he is not going to be able to fix it. Damnit. I have to buy a new one, because I can't live without my own computer, but I did find a way to get my pictures from my camera to my parents' computer, so here's a little blogpost!
I got my order from nailpolishfashion (wich I will show you after the nailpics) and I ordered 3 Golden Rose flakies, and first I tried number 11 over Herôme - Frankfurt. Here are some pics:

in the early afternoon, no flash.

in the only peek of sunlight we had last week haha.. 

close to the dawn, no flash. very, very bad picture, sorry!

just a little close-up to show you. #11 contains blue, green and purple flakies!

kittypic!

I really liked the manicure, but the drying time was awfull. I had to wait for at least two hours to get it completely dry :( But ofcourse, it's a very thick polish so I could've expected it haha. Very pretty!

So, as I promised, here are some pictures of my order from nailpolishfashion (remember my wishlist?) 

Golden Rose #06, #11 and #10

yay! Color Club - Wild At Heart & Revvvolution

Konad plates  M79, M57, M56 & a double sided stamp!

I absolutely LOVE everything I ordered, can't wait to try it all. You will be seeing blogposts of this stuff soon!  I hope I'll be able to get my own computer soon because I really don't like writing something from someone else's computer, don't really know why. Bye!
