I have yet another nail of the day post today. This time it is Raven Red by Revlon, and this is also a great color for the fall and winter time. It's a deep red color, so it's not very original but it's nice to have a color (or a few) like this in your nail polish collection.
These photos have been taken under natural light and I applied 2 coats of the nail polish. It's very creamy and it doesn't chip easy (at least that's my experience).

ps: I'm not having a lot of posts up because I had photos ready in one of my memory cards and I lost it, so I have to retake them and I'm busy with college and everything, but I'm catching up so there will be more posts up soon :)
I had never used a Revlon nail polish before but I have to say that I'm in love with the quality of this nail polish. It is Jaded Night and there's a sticker on the bottle that says it's a new shade but it might not be, I don't know.
Anyway, this is a dark green color, which I feel it's perfect for fall. I like that it is very creamy and it was almost opaque with just one coat.
2 coats, natural light
I also got another Revlon nail polish, so I'll be showing you that one soon.
"Flip Flop Fantasy" by China Glaze is the perfect nail polish color for this summer. I was very impressed with the color itself because I thought it was going to look worse on the nails than the color you can see on the bottle, but I was wrong. The color is the same: neon coral.
Depending on the light it can look either orange, pink or coral; but I think this last one is its real color because it's the one you see most of the time with natural lighting.
I was surprised again when I painted the first nail and saw it was matte. A friend told me that all neon nail polishes are matte the other day, but I didn't know it when I was painting them. If you like matte nails then you're going to love this nail polish but if you prefer glossy nails, you can always apply a top coat.
This post is long over due and I'm really sorry. But I knew I was going to post it eventually, so here it is. I got some money for my birthday (which was may 6th) and I decided to get these things with part of it. I don't remember all of the prices, but the priciest one where the rings and they were only 13€, so yeah...everything here is really inexpensive.
I've seen this bracelet everywhere on here and YouTube and I even had it in my april wishlist, I believe. I finally got it and I'm in love with it. They had it in a bunch of different colors (like pink, black, cream, blue, rose gold) but I decided to get the gold one.
Next I got another gold one. I really am in love with this next one and it's my favorite out of the 3 bracelets that I got. I want to say that I'm catholic, so this is not only a trendy piece; it means a lot more to me. Anyway, it is really pretty and since it's fairly small, looks really cute and classy, in a way.
The last bracelet I got is a little different from the others. It's not as trendy but still, it is really cute. I really like the bow at the end, I feel like it gives a nice touch, something fun and girly at the same time.
Then I got a necklace. I really like short necklaces; it's not that I don't like long ones cause I do, but on a day to day basis I like to wear short ones. I don't know what to say about this one, just that I really like the bow (as you may be able to tell, I really like bows).
And last, but definitely not least, I got these 6 rings. They came together in a pack and I love that you can combine them to make different looks. I only wear 2 together because I feel like 3 would be a lot (even though I might try it sometime, but no more than 3) and I've been getting a lot of compliments on them. I like how you can create a neutral look with the white one, the black one and even the pale pink one, but at the same time you get a few colorful ones.
I made a birthday haul video some weeks ago, I believe, in which I show how all these look on me. If you want to see for comparison or whatever, it is towards the end. So you can skip the rest if you're only interested in these things :)
Once again, I haven't done much this week. I'm still stresses out (just a little) with college work and I got sick for a couple of days.
1. I got these rings from ASOS and they're my favorite. I'm so in love with them because I can create a ton of different ones out of the 6 that the pack came with. I'll show them in a haul next week along with more ASOS stuff.
2. Spring is finally here and I can wear my flats and all of my cute spring clothes.
3. Aren't these shower gel bottles cute? I saw them the other day and I wanted to buy them haha but I didn't.
4. Remember what I said about being spring, warm and almost summer? Well, it rained yesterday...and a lot. I don't know what's wrong but it's pretty cold again. Hopefully it'll change back in a couple of days because this weather is confusing.
This is going to be all for today. I'm sorry it's not a lot, but I'm not feeling well. I'll be ok in a few days so I'll post real soon.
Thank you all so much :)
Basically last week the weather was getting warmer around here and I thought I'd start the spring time by wearing a bright nail polish, so I painted my nails with this pretty orange. The bad thing is that the weather is cold again and now I look kind of stupid with bright nails, but oh well.
I'm not the kind of person who paints their nails every single color and this is the first orange nail polish that I own. I've never painted them green (real green, if you know what I mean, I love mint), yellow, brown, black or white either. So it's sort of out of my comfort zone but I actually like it.
2 coats, natural light
This nail polish is Kiko's number 358 and it's one of the three nail polishes I showed you on my last haul.
I like that this color could be considered a neon orange (you have to see it in person) but at the same time has a hint of pastel in it (I think you can see that in the photos).
Are you going to wear bright nail polishes this spring?
First of all, I want to apologize for not posting as much as I used to but I'm pretty busy with college stuff. Anyway, this week I've bought a few things that I want to share with all of you. It's not much but I don't really have time to shop either (which makes me super sad).
The first thing that I've been loving is my new Marc by Marc Jacobs iPhone cover. It has printed colorful glasses and I think it's really cute.
My second favorite thing is my new purse. I got it at H&M a few days ago and it was only 19.95€, which I think is a really good price for this bag, since I find it very cute and useful. I thought I was only going to use it when I go out with my friends or shopping but I'm also using it for college because my netbook laptop fits inside.

While I was at H&M I picked up a few head bands. I know this is kind of random but I've wanted some for a while and when I saw them I new I have to get them. I got two packets of three head bands each, for 5.90€ in total.
And also from H&M I got a scarf. It is light weight so it's great for spring. The pattern has gold chains and some things that remind me of old building's decorations or the thing that covers the space between the ceiling and the wall in my house (I don't know what it's called).
You probably (or not) know already that I love fashion books, so I got a new one. It is The Little Dictionary of Fashion by Christian Dior. It contains explanations of fashion items as well as pretty drawings and pictures.
And lastly I went to Kiko and I picked up three nail polishes that I think are cool for spring and summer.
Numbers: 355, 358, 236
oh, and I have a question for you: do you know where to get the China Glaze Hunger Games collection online with reasonable shipping charges?
