For today's NOTD I've used two of my newest nail polishes that were sent to me by the fabulous Kerrie (check out my blog post >right here< if you haven't!) and I lovvvee themmm! Check out the look I created..
Who would be able to resist a little sparkle like this? (:
Today I wanted to do a Share the Love Sunday, since I haven't in forever. I've definitely found some lovely blogs since we've last spoken, but this one blogger's style has really caught my eye.
Meet Bree, from the Urban Umbrella!
This girl has such a flair for fashion, her style always has classic components mixed in with unique additions that make the look her own. I always enjoy reading this blog!

So my good friend Kerrie from Gorgeous-Glamour was ever so kind to send me 3 bottles of nail polish, two I think that she won and one she had gotten for free, which was so kind and generous of her!! I still can't believe she did that for little ol' me (:
Recently I was introduced to a new band from the UK called Metronomy. Upon hearing their latest single The Look, I was hooked, but most of their other stuff was questionable at best. They had a few other toe tappers for sure, but this song has been in my head constantly for the last three or four days, and I really haven't minded. The video is pretty cool as well (:
Enough rambling, check it out!
I absolutely adore this song, the ambient sound is totally one of my favourite aspects of music.
Do you guys have any brand new music that you can't get out of your head? Let me know in the comments!
So I haven't posted in ages, and I miss you guys! I've been super busy, all my time has been taken up by a combination of working, painting my house and tending to birthdays and such all month.
What's more, since I've been painting, I haven't done anything overly extravagant on my nails for the past while, which is kinda lame, but I made up for it by using my favourite colours. I'll still show you guys though! (:
Gossip is a band I fell in love with about three years ago, I heard their song Heavy Cross on an MTV commercial and I immediately stopped everything and found out who they were. Since then they haven't had a new album, but this is their newest single coming from their upcoming album, A Joyful Noise. Check out the video!
Beth Ditto is an amazing singer, even though she's a tad bit crazy in real life! Their videos are so unique and their sound is like no other band I know, so I feel like they deserve some recognition. Hope you enjoy, and until next time, stay polished!
So today I come to you with the finished design that was inspired by my latest purchase, Orly's Rococo A-Go-Go. You can check out the swatches in my previous post >>right here!<< if you'd like (:
This nail polish is so gorgeous on its own, I was having trouble thinking of a design to go over top that wouldn't take away from the overall effect. Finally one particular polish came into mind, and I decided that a gradient would be the most effective way to showcase these two polishes together. Check it out!

These two polishes blend so well together, it's absolutely a match made in heaven. Read on for the breakdown...
