April, May or June?

I spotted the Spring/Summer 2012 nail polishes by Chanel on several blogs the past week orso and my opinion of them is quite different from most responses I've seen so far, lol :)

Picture by Lisa Eldridge

A lot of people are a fan of June, but as far as I can tell from this picture that color won't go with my skin at all. My favorite has to be April, it's such a rich color. I like May too, very cute and feminine yet bright at the same time. But June? I don't know... I like the color itself, but as I mentioned before, I have serious doubts about it being flattering for my skin-tone, while lots of people write it would match a whole variety of skin-tones. I guess we'll just have to wait and see :)

Which color is your favorite? Drop me a comment and let me know :)

In The Nude

I've hurt my ankle quite badly this weekend and though nothing ended up broken - fortunately - I didn't really have the energy or the patience to do my nails for real. But my New York look had chips so I had to remove it and I decided to pimp the nude look a little with Catrice's Ultimate Nudes, no. 060 Mona Lisa Is Staring Back.

I heart New York

I've had this color for a while now but this is only the first time I'm using it; part of the standard Herôme's World Inspired Colors collection, no 94, New York.

Bite Me

 

One of the autumn collections I'm looking forward to see is the Vampire's Love trend edition by Essence, out in November 2011. I'm not interested in all products of this collection that includes eau de toilette, shimmer powder and more, but two particular items caught my eye and I hope I'll be able to get my hands on them once they hit the stores (yes, I buy the actual products I use here, I don't get them for free). One of them obviously being the nail polish. Pics and more after the clicky!

Nuts (Just A Little)

I'm a little nuts. I took a coupla pictures to show you my nail polish collection and I realised that yes, I'm a little nuts. But no, I don't really care :) More pics after the "Read More" button!

Pink Bracelets

October is the Pink Ribbon Breast Cancer Awareness month as most of you will know. Pink Ribbon is dedicated to raising breast cancer awareness and funding breast cancer research. As I know several women who have suffered from this awful disease, I definitely support this cause.

I don't know if all worldwide websites have a webstore like the Dutch website, but I found it and thought it was a great way to support a good cause. If you're looking for new accessories anyway, please visit the Pink Ribbon webstore of your own country. They might have something you like and you'll be supporting Pink Ribbon too.

I bought two cute bracelets, both of course very pink, of which half the money will be spend on research.

'til next time!

A Star In The Making...

I had a fancy dinner last night and my previous nail look was already damaged so you're getting a new review from me already. After a while of contemplating, I decided to try Catrice's Ultimate Nail Lacquer, no 660 "I'm A Star..."
