Nails Inc - The Donmar & Chelsea

You may remember me doing a post on Nails Inc - The Wyndham & Kensington, a beautiful dark teal with a flakie top coat.  Well this is the other duo I bought at the time - Nails Inc The Donmar & Chelsea.  This is also known at The Lily Gossip Girl Collection.

Boots 17 Magnetized Nail Polish - Grey/Gun Metal

So I'm sure you've all seen plenty of magnetic manicures by now, but I really loved mine when I wore it, so thought I would show it to you!

Nails Inc - The Wyndham & Kensington

Ahhhhh! I'm currently in the middle of house hunting - and what a nightmare that is!  Everything out this way is so much more expensive than where I'm from.  What would get you a 3 bed-house back home, only gets you a bedsit here - so annoying!

But onto something slightly less stressful....nail varnish!  Today I'm showing you a duo set that I picked up on QVC quite a while ago, but didn't get around to posting about.  It's now been officially released - albeit under a different name, so I figured now would be a good time to show it to you.

This is the Nails Inc duo set of The Wyndham and Kensington.  This is known as the Gossip Girl Blair Collection on the Nails Inc website.

Andrea Fulerton - Mischa VS Chanel - Graphite

So I promised a comparison between Andrea Fulerton Mischa and Chanel Graphite and here it is....

Chanel - Graphite

I'm pretty sure that everyone who loves nail polish, will have seen Chanel Graphite by now, but I wanted to add my backing to this gorgeous colour!

Chanel Graphite

Graphite is my first ever Chanel nail polish, and I was very lucky to be bought it by my boyfriend as a treat - I think me oggling it every time we walked past a Chanel counter was quite a big hint!

Andrea Fulerton - Mischa

I've previously shown you the Andrea Fulerton Gemstone Overcoat, but I haven't shown you any of the other Andrea Fulerton nail polishes I own.  Today is the turn of Andrea Fulerton - Mischa.

Barry M - Gold Foil

So, today is Barry M Instant Nail Effects Gold Foil day, following on from my post a couple of days ago, showing the silver foil.

Barry M Instant Nail Effects Gold Foil

There are two colours (so far) in the Barry M Instant Nail Effects foil collection - silver and gold.  Priced at £3.99 a bottle they aim to be a cheaper alternative to salon style nail foils (eg Minx).

Barry M - Silver Foil

My next two blog posts are going to be about two nail varnishes I saw advertised a little while ago, and then had to wait (I hate waiting) for them to come into store!

But as soon as they did, I had them.....and then I forgot about them...until now!  Today I will be showing you Barry M Silver Foil NP 319, and in a couple of days I will show you Barry M Gold Foil NP 320.

Barry M Silver Foil is part of Barry M's Instant Nail Effects range.  This range previously bought us crackle polishes, and now is bringing us foils.

Nails Inc Little Miss Chatterbox

Nails Inc Little Miss Sunshine

Nails Inc Little Miss Naughty

Nails Inc Little Miss Splendid

I loved all of the colours in the collection and they definitely made welcome additions to my nail polish collection.  The application of all the colours was really easy and had great finishes.  I'm definitely looking forward to wearing all of these colours again!

Just remember that from my experience these colours do not work well with OPI Start to Finish!

All of the colours can be seen, and some still purchased on the Nails Inc website priced at £12 each.

What did you think of the Little Miss Collection? Would you wear any of these colours?

Nails Inc - Little Miss Splendid

It's time for the last in the series of Nails Inc Little Miss nail polishes!  Now I mentioned previously that minty green is my favourite colour, so that's why I saved this polish until last and I'd definitely say it was worth the wait!

As before for the previous colours, the packing is the same.  The backing card has images of Little Miss Splendid, as does the bottle itself.

Little Miss Splendid thinks that she's the best, and this polish definitely had something a little bit extra than the others!  Nails Inc Little Miss Splendid is a gorgeous mint green colour, but has a stunning blue shimmer to it!

Nails Inc - Little Miss Sunshine

Well it's time for the next instalment in the Nails Inc Little Miss collection and this time I've chosen Little Miss Sunshine.

Now Little Miss Sunshine is one of the cheeriest Little Miss and Mr Men characters and this nail polish certainly brightened my day!

Nails Inc - Little Miss Chatterbox

I received an email at the end of July that immediately got me excited.  Little Miss (as in Mr. Men and Little Miss) were celebrating there 40th Anniversary and as part of this Nails Inc were producing a collection of 4 polishes to join in with the celebrations.  Needless to say that as soon as they were released I had mine on order!!!!

I've been meaning to wear them for ages, but I just keep forgetting!!!!  So today, having done the extremes of pink and blue, I decided to go for something a little more natural, and chose Little Miss Chatterbox from the collection.

I received mine in really cute packaging! It comes in a plastic box with Little Miss Chatterbox on the front and on a card inside.  The bottle itself is the typical Nails Inc bottle with the silver lid, but has Little Miss Chatterbox on the front.

Now like I've said before, my camera really doesn't cope with blue tones!  Little Miss Chatterbox is what I would call a mushroom colour, with a slightly purple/lilac undertone.  It's a creme polish which was easily opaque in two coats, and posed no application issues!

I haven't got any colours like this in my collection, as I've never really been into the whole "griege/taupe" scene, but I have to say I love this colour.  It's very wearable for work and I can see it being worn a lot!!!  I can't wait to try the rest from this collection!

This colour is currently out of stock, but you can see it on the Nails Inc Website.

Did you buy any polishes from the Little Miss collection? Which Little Miss are you?

OPI - Flower-to-Flower

So having spent a few days with blue, I decided to go for something a little bit different!!  Now my friends all know that I don't come across as girly, but secretly I am!!! But just to shock them more, I've recently started liking pink!!!

OPI Flower-to-Flower Swatch

This is Flower-to-Flower from OPI's Summer Flutter Collection from 2010.  As far as I can remember, this is the only one I have from that collection.
