Barry M Brought My Nails Back To Life



I am a lover of pretty and glossy nails but I had to stop wearing nail polish for a few months because my nails became quite thin, they kept chipping and the top coats and base coats I used were not helping. Until one day a friend of mine recommended the Barry M 'All in One' clear nail polish and I have to thank her for that because it has literally brought my nails back to life!

I have used it a few times as a base coat and top coat and it definitely makes my nails stronger. With just one coat, it adds a nice glossy finish and locks in your nail polish making it last up to a week, which is great especially when you've just applied one of your favourite nail polish colours perfectly without any smudges or streaks!

 It also dries quickly too which is an added plus especially when you're getting ready to go out! 

It is pretty impressive for a drugstore product and I would highly recommend it. At £2.99 you can't really go wrong! It has made me love wearing nail polish again!

What is your favourite base coat/top coat?

Favourite Spring Purchases



I felt it was time for a new handbag and I needed one that wasn't going to be too big as I know I would end up carrying half of my bedroom with me. Sometimes I carry around the most random things thinking I'd need them but I never do! So one evening I was browsing online and ended up on the Kurt Geiger website where I found this beautiful black Carvela handbag.

The size is just perfect as I can fit all my essentials in and even my lunch box and umbrella. It has also got a shoulder strap too which I find really useful for when I want to sling it over my shoulder when I'm on the tube or just carrying lots of shopping. It also feels very sturdy so it will definitely last me a long time. 
  
As it is black, it will go with literally any outfit so if you're wearing a plain white top with a blazer and jeans, this bag with its small gold details would complement the look by making it more classy and chic. It's amazing how one piece of accessory can transform an outfit! 


I loved the handbag so much I had to find a wallet that could go with it. I am sure I will be purchasing more Carvela accessories in the future!



I have been searching for a pair of chunky heeled boots for a while and have never found a pair that I liked because the heels were either too high, they were too expensive or they just didn't look nice. However, one evening after a long break from this tiring mission I finally found the perfect pair of heeled boots from Boohoo! It is actually true when people say you can never find something when you look for it but when you stop looking, it suddenly appears.

I am in love with these boots because they are lightweight, comfortable and fit well. The thick rubber heels make it easy to walk in and add the perfect amount of height for someone petite like me. 

What I find even more great is that they can be worn for any occasion making them very versatile. They can go with any outfit whether that be skinny jeans, leggings or a skirt and they can be worn during any season which is fab!
