Nails Inc. x Fabulous

16th June 2011


This weekend Fabulous magazine are cheering up our nails for Summer by giving away an exclusive duo of Nails Inc. polishes worth £22!

Created especially for Fabulous, the shades – called Atomic and OMP! (that’s Oh My Pink!) – are sure to be this season’s hottest shades!

Starting this weekend there will be three tokens to cut out and collect, which you can then redeem in participating Tesco stores from the 3rd July. There will also be an amazing discount on Nails Inc. manicures; half price at £14 at participating Nails Inc. salons!

Fabulous were super generous and sent me a preview of the polishes, so as soon as I become less lazy I’ll post what the colours actually look like on. This one not to be missed; they are GORGEOUS!

doomsday

24th May 2011

I am declaring today doomsday. Why? Well, I’m facing two big challenges.

1. I am off to the dentist shortly for my first filling. I am scared of the needle. Very scared. Which considering how many blood tests, injections, tattoos and piercings I have is highly odd. I just really don’t want a needle in my mouth. Thanks.

2. Later on I am off to get my hair done with Hayley and Aussie. What is it that scares me most? Certainly not meeting people for the first time, or the fact I am hopeless at locating my way around the city which I’ve lived near all my life. It’s the hair dressing itself that scares me. I am a fidgeter, and not very good with people in my personal space. I am also hideously ashamed that I have a flaky scalp that no amount of washing, primping and general taking care seems to fix (please don’t judge me).
However, my hair is in dire need, and well, sillyness aside I am quite looking forward to a bit of pampering and girl time after such a manic few weeks.
((don’t ask me what I’m having done, the simple answer is “not a sodding clue”))

I’m wearing a dress from Clothing at Tesco (that I purchased with a very generous gift of a voucher)
Tesco are killing it right now with some amazing and affordable pieces..I wasn’t able to make the A/W press day but I hear it’s INCREDIBLE.

At some point yesterday I also had really awesome nails. I picked up this nail polish sticker things in Superdrug on clearance for £1.49 and tried them out. They were so easy to apply and looked amazing. Sadly for me, they were also easy to remove, and mere hours later I had joyfully peeled them all off. FAIL Laura, FAIL.

My hands need serious TLC!

How’s your week kicking off guys? I hope no-one got blown away by that hideous wind we had yesterday

Dream Outfit of the Day

02nd March 2011

I remember vague notions of making this a regular feature on the blog…and then last week I totally forgot, oops…there is no hope!
Anyway, here is my dream outfit of the day for Wednesday 2nd March. It’s a day off for me today, and I’d love to be rocking this laid back cool outfit,
instead the reality is a ratty old jumper dress and somewhat faded leggings. It’s ok, I’m not leaving the house, after a few days of dressing nicely, girlie needs a break!

Asos Link

I love clock pendants. This one is an Asos Bargain!

In an ideal world my nails would be sporting Nails Inc Black with a Twist in Mayfair. Reality? They are NAKED. As usual. Damn I need to get back on the manicure train.

What do you wish you were wearing today?
