Autumn Is Here... Apparently

Today is the first day this year that I noticed the leaves starting to fall from the trees which reminded me that it's autumn. Anyone that doesn't own a calendar could be easily fooled though because I swear it was the warmest weekend we've had all year! I heard that Saturday was the warmest October day on record in the UK... ever.

I finally got my hands on the new Barry M Foil Effects in gold. I've been needing a new gold stamping polish for a very long time and when I saw the previews of these chrome polishes I was hoping it would be my answer. I wasn't wrong. The gold is great for stamping and no doubt I'll be buying the silver soon enough.

I was hoping for a little more contrast between the two colours in this Autumn inspired manicure but I actually love the subtlety of the combination.

Snakeskin Nails... Take Two

We are switching internet providers tonight so I'm currentlysat on the floor of my brother's bedroom with my computer plugged in to hisethernet cable. For some silly reason it's only the wireless that isn'tworking and apparently I'm the only person in the house who utilises thetechnological miracle that is wireless internet!

I have some more 'take two' nails for you today featuringone of MUA Cosmetics' new nail shades. MUA has definitely risen in myestimations a lot over the past few months. Each item from the basic line is only £1 so I supposeit's the UK's version of Essence. One can be forgiven for being a bit scepticalabout the products at first because of the bargain price tag but since first tryingthem over a year ago, I can’t see a reason to pay more than £1 for aneyeshadow! If you are in the UK and you haven’t tried MUA yet, why on earth not?!

 Anyway, I digress. Here are some more snakeskin nails foryou!
