Oh thank you Daisy for alerting me to the Alice in Wonderland palette. I would never normally part with so much money for eyeshadow but I only own about 3 and want to experiment more - I was looking at individual eyeshadows and they're not cheap are they? And it's a pretty box! I can't wait for the film.

I spent a huge amount of money in H&M in Brighton yesterday but I just bought loads and loads of basics, vests and t shirts mainly, and 3 cardigans. It doesn't sound very exciting does it? I sometimes scare myself with too many colours and patterns as I tend to use bags with prints on so the plain bits should do me through to next autumn at least.

And I love Grease, Olivia Newton-John was my idol when I was little!

Hope you are all having a good day. I got a text off an ex yesterday, why can't they just let things lie? It has sort of upset me but I am going to curl up and be nice to myself this evening once DS is in bed.

rainbow- I think buying basics IS exciting, haha, with a good stock of those you can create so many looks

Urban Decay is verry expensive. I normally buy cheap through outlet shops (we have one in this town that sells discontinued colours) or ask for bits as presents, or save for months on end!

*hugs to you for stupid ex upsetting you*

idk if it's worth all the hassle lol. I will probably end up keeping it because I am lazy

LOL, that's why my wedding dress is still hanging up!

Thank you I know I am better off without but you know...

I live in a teeny tiny town. It is all expensive gift shops (bad) and charity shops (good) - though I'm not that good at rummaging. I must perfect my technique.

When you all paint your nails do you do it to match an outfit?? I rarely paint mine because I get fed up with the chips but I want to start prettying myself up a bit more. I got some from Barry M as I have seen a lot of you championing it.

Fingers crossed no one gets snowed in (again!) - it's been raining here all day.

daisybella

Nope, I paint my nails to match my mood, they rarely match anything I wear! Mine need re-doing actually, something bright now work is over till next weekend.

My toe nails are currently "For Audrey" by China Glaze, I love it (it was a christmas present from my Mum!)

Sorry to hear about the ex-texting, try to ignore it xo

I like buying basics - as daisybella says, they can be used to build a huge number of outfits! :j I sometimes find it hard to get really good basics e.g. I have been searching forever for a decent BF cardi but can I find one? Not yet! If I could I would have about 7 new outfits instantly. I love pretty patterned stuff too, so I need the basics to go with them!

p.s. where is Grease on and why am I not watching it???

rainbow81

Ooh very nice Daisy - I am not brave enough yet. All my nail varnishes are variations between burgundy and pink. You lot really are making me think twice though. Thank you I've never really got on with my "inner female" before but it feels time ...

Yeah, I never match my nails to my outfit either, more my mood. I wish I could afford better nail varnishes right now, the China Glaze looks fabulous...
