Color Club Oooooo La La

Color Club Oooooo La La - Sunshine

Color Club Oooooo La La - Shade

Oooooo La La is from the 2009 spring Femme Fatale collection.
I wore this polish on my toes for my wedding. It is a nice dense white with a hint of shimmer. It is slightly frosty/pearly but has very nice and smooth finish. This is three coats.

Spotted in NZ: Orly Mineral FX

Thursdays are new display day at Farmers in Wellington. Today the newest collection out in New Zealand is the Mineral FX collection from Orly. These are selling for NZ$24.99. I can not justify $25 for a polish, so even though these are pretty, I passed on them today.

I am still waiting on photos from the wedding. I promise as soon as I have some you ladies will all be the first to see them!

Lots of Love

This is it

This is it folks. I am off to get married. We are off to stay the night before at the venue with the ceremony on Sunday. My family all started arriving 2 days ago and its getting pretty hectic here. Its 8.30 am and I have been awake since 3am because I just cant get to sleep!

I feel embarrassed to say this but I am wearing fake nails. Too much stress coupled with wearing too much glitter over the last month and a habit to pick at my nail polish has lead to a lot of breakage and thinness of my nails. Three weeks ago they looked perfect and the best they had in a very long time. I'm sad about it now but there isn't much I can do about it.

I love all you guys. Thanks for the support and I'll see you hopefully in about a week with some wedding pictures.

Lots of Love
Lisa

Orly and Valentines Pinks

Left to Right: Passionfruit, Cotton Candy, Forever Crimson, Butterflies

I spotted this the other day in Farmers.

It appears to just be a re-promote of pink polishes for valentines day.
None of these colours are new.

This may be my last post for a wee while. Our wedding is in five days and I have a lot to do. I have one day left of work to make it through and then 11 days off. Wish me luck!

Lots of Love

Deborah Lippmann Glitter In The Air

Deborah Lippmann Glitter In The Air - Sunshine

Deborah Lippmann Glitter In The Air - Shade

Lisa bought this polish back from America for my Birthday. This is three coats. I think it is very sheer and I might try putting some light blue underwear under it (maybe OPI whats with the cattitude?). I did have to hunt for the glitter bits for the top coat. I think its delicate and pretty, but probably not worth the hype. Revlon also does a much cheaper dupe for this polish now called Whimsical.

Only 6 more sleeps until our wedding. I am not so stressed out yet but I have a feeling I may be in a couple of days when all of our family starts arriving.

Lots of Love
Lisa
