I’ve recently started working at a temp job that’s taking up a lot of my sunlight hours, so blogging has become a bit more difficult and stressful (especially with the heap of inspiration I’ve had lately!). To give myself a bit of a breather, I asked some of my favourite bloggers to guest post for me, and to my surprise, …
Now for the final part in my San Francisco swatch series – the much-anticipated shimmers! (If you missed it, here are the San Francisco cremes and liquid sands.) Muir Muir on the Wall is my favourite shimmer from this collection – it’s a maroon to green-bronze duochrome. The duochrome isn’t as breathtaking as, say, Ozotics, Nubars or even Peace & …
Parts 2 and 3 are out! Click through to check out the liquid sands and shimmers in the collection. Recently I was very fortunate to be invited to the launch of OPI’s San Francisco collection, inspired by the vibrant (and foggy) city’s sophisticated urban chic. It was a very exciting day!

I watched this as an impressionable tween when it first came out, and …

It feels wrong to lay into a senior citizen of a film from contemporary perspectives, so let’s quickly breeze through a few obvious points that I largely covered last week in my grumpy Jasmine rant: – Hot …

I loved the catchy songs, and the bold and cheerful animation, but the films never sat well with me, and as a child, I didn’t really have the analytical skills nor the vocabulary to explain why.

Euro Centrale is OPI’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection, inspired by the clash of classic architecture and modern art in four Central European countries – Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Romania . It’s got a bunch of cremes, with a few shimmers and a glitter topper thrown in. I’ve swatched three of the shades from the collection: OPI… Eurso Euro is a …
