Adventures of Barbarella

Pacific Blue

I'm breaking all the Winter rules and wearing this mauvey blue on my tips & toes for Winter. I think it looks wonderful. This is certainly one of my all-time favourite colours.

Easy Days

My nail crystals started falling off yesterday. That might be because they rubbed against my shoes. Crystals don't allow much shoe choice, do they?. I had grown to love them actually, and I'm sure I'm gonna do it again. I almost got my hotfix swarovski stash out ready to do it myself but then I thought- no. Hotfix glue on nail might not be such a good idea.

So I went back to Mod About You by OPI. I first had an infatuation with it when I was 19. And I have incredible memories! It can never go wrong.

I'm wearing my clog mules again.



I didn't even go out today except to replenish my Cookie Dough ice cream stock, so I did some liquid eyeliner (NARS felt tip) and Vegas Volt on lips.

Blingy Sophy Robson nails and a Lie in the park

Check out my new bigger pictures! I wasn't sure they wouldn't crash my server and I've never used them, but here's hoping they don't.


I'm wearing the standard Summer uniform in the Guess Girl variation. Shorts, tank top, some some jewlery, metallic sandals and a little bag. It just gives it that touch that's on the right side of tacky. And Raybans, nothing beats my raybans.



I did something outrageous today...behold..CRYSTALS!

(my feet are battered. They always are. On this ocassion I got attacked by some miu miu flats)

Out of everything in the world this was probably the least likely design for me to choose. So i went for it! (Initially I wanted a D&G inspired flower pattern but it was very hard to do on toes. I still wanna do that next time, somehow.)

I went to Sophy Robson's salon (big fan, who isn't) and, I'll tell you something, I don't usually get pedicures or manicures. I've only had one in my life, when i was 19. They don't last long and I spend the money on other things. So you know, you have to choose your luxuries. But I was very curious about visiting Robson's team and doing something different so there you have it!  It was great fun, efficient, fast, functional. I like that.

Then I went to the park with Tommy & co. to show off my new glittery toes, it was really hot and that was great. Had a picnic that was made out of a Raclette crepe and a red velvet cupcake for dessert.

And a little information on the makeup:



I'm quite tan so I'm wearing Laura Mercier Natural Beige and Classic Beige mineral foundation mixed.
Chanel cake eyeliner in black. As amazing as you've heard. I've been recommended this by so many people. I surrendered.
Diorshow Extase mascara
Bobbi Brown Pink Beige lipgloss on lips. Now with the new applicator and bigger size, you really can't beat this gloss. They've always been my favourite, they are the shiniest and stay on until you eat them.
Pretty sure there's dirt on my face too. I'm one of those people who attracts dirt like a magnet.

Happy Sunday! xxx

Essie Splash of Grenadine

This is such a pretty magenta pink!!

Jelly, so it looks sheer (but not streaky) with one coat, and covers the nail with two). Amazing texture I love it. One sheer coat makes your nails look like a popsicle, would be great for the beach.

Illamasqua Nudge

For me to get over this company's disastrous marketing campaign and their offputting names, the products must be very good

They are

Absolutely wonderful nailpolish

Bring it, Summer!
