New year. Feeling fresh :) Storage tips #1

Happy new year everyone :) 

I know its a bit late but better late than never! I hope you all enjoyed the festive season as much as I did. Some of you may be wondering why I haven't blogged in such a long time? The reason being is due to lots of uni assignments and deadlines just before Christmas & New Year which meant lots of stress and running around like a headless chicken getting last minute Christmas presents. But fear not, because I am back :) and hopefully more regularly now as well :). 

As its the start of a new year (even though were 10 days in already)I always find theres nothing better than starting the new year being organised. Im the worst for organisation skills however this year I thought I would spend the first few days of 2014 organising my bedroom, my make-up, uni work ect, in hope that it would help me throughout the year. SO I started off with my make-up and I thought I would share it with you to help you guys out if you want to get organised this year :)

A few weeks ago just before Christmas, I was having a casual browse in TK Maxx and i spotted this floral tin, it reminded me a bit of the Kath Kidston collection. Being your standard 22 year old girl, I have collected a fair few nail polishes over the years and I find them scattered all over the place at home, at my uni house, so I thought this would be perfect to store them in & at £3 you can't really go wrong.. 

Not only is it good for storing nail polishes or lipsticks whatever you fancy putting in it, its also very attractive looking and looks amazing on my dressing table and adds a vintage touch which I personally love. If you fancy one of these yourself take a trip to TK Maxx and have a little browse they are SO good for little bits like this at reasonable prices too. 

How do you store your makeup? If you would like to see more of these posts let me know in the comments below, I'm thinking of maybe doing them on a weekly basis on how I store and organise different bits & bobs. Let me know your thoughts!

Hi- Shine!

Hey everyone!

I've been so busy with work these last few weeks, but when I have had a few spare minutes to go onto my laptop I've been reading a few of my favourite blogs to see what products I can put on my never ending wish list! One item that I had to go out and buy as so many people have been raving about it is the Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine nail varnish!

During the summer months I always think its nice to have lovely bright painted nails and they always look a whole lot better when you have a tan as well! I'm normally a big fan of the Topshop nail varnishes as I love all the different colours they have and their limited eddition ones too! However I thought it was time to give the Barry M ones a go and so far, I am really pleased with them :)

I thought I would purchase two of them. I chose the orangey/red coloured, (satsuma 327) one as I always go for this colour on my nails ( or something similar) & then I thought I would have a change and go for a pastel blue coloured nail varnish, (Blueberry 328) for a change to add to my never ending collection!

Barry M Hi-Shine Nail Varnish £3.99

 As soon as I got home I thought I would give them a go & they are my new favourite. I've had it on for 3 days now and it hasn't chipped which I find happens a lot with the Topshop ones. They also have a really nice finish on your nails and you can get away with putting one coat of it on and its fast drying too. & for £3.99 you can't really go wrong? So I can deffinitely see myself buying a few more of these!

Have you got a favourite nail varnish or any you would reccomend?
