UK Haul Part 3

I decided to split these posts in several parts, since there was so many polishes to cover, and I get overwhelmed when there is to much. So that's why my new babies needed three posts.

UK haul Part 1

Hi everyone!
So I am back from my UK trip. I miss it already, and want to go back. I fell in love with the place.
Today I will show you the things I bought at my trip. As you know I had several shopping lists with me, both from the Norwegian nail-polish forum I`m at, and from Mishka (Lacquer or Leave Her!). To see what polishes Mishka got, keep an eye on her blog Lacquer of Leave Her! , it should arrive any day now.

Vacation Update

I am so sorry I have totally MIA here. I have O.D. on nail-polish-shopping.
I am still on vacation, the cord to my camera is missing, and I am trying to find a new one, seems like that isnt as easy as I thought, but don't worry beauties. I will find one.

I thought I should jump in here, and so a quick update to tell you all, that I am alright.
I have been to Models Own in Westfield London, I have been to 100s of Boots, Superdrugs etc in search for W7s, Barry Ms, and other polishes.

I had them all on my bed one day, looking over to see what I had found, and sort it out. Some of them are for Mishka, from Lacquer or Leave Her! . She gave me the most amazing shopping list, and there where so many beauties there. I bought some of the same.. I couldn't resist.

Topshop
Eclipse
Hidden Treasure

Summer Challenge - Mermaid


Sorry I am late with this post. But here you have it.

I <3 mermaids, one of my biggest wishes is to get a monotail from the Mertailor in USA. He is such a good tailor! Sadly they cost like $ 2000 (!!) but they are SO gorgeous.

Anyhow... back to nails.

Base


1 coat

2 coats



So thats my mermaidtails. 




Depend - 223

Today I have all sparkly nails. They are silver.
I`m rather fond of my Depend polishes, and I think the bottles are really cute. 

I am starting to feel that I havent bought nailpolish for a while. I am waiting for my Cheeky-plates, and it looks like they wont get here before I go on my vacation on Friday.

I will update my blog as often as possible, I am bringing my nail camera, and a laptop. So I will keep you updated on all my purchases, and designed I do as I travel. :)

Crackle over Grey Skittle

Its been a crazy weekend for me. I had to attend to a seminar few hours away from here. Its actually so far away that I had to take the plain. 1 hour by plain, so that's not so bad.
The plain left at 08am, and its about 1 hour away by train from where I live, so I ended up having to get up at 05 am. Urgh. And I didn't get in bed before 02 pm, cause I was sitting up chatting with friends. 

Tired much!

Saturday ended with a trip to the E.R. a friend of mine lost a tooth, and another one got said tooth in his head, and it wouldn't stop bleeding. Thats what you get when geeks plays Laser-Tag. 
Overly enthusiastic bunch. 

Went back home with the 8 am plain, and had to go for a RPG-session, and make dinner for the RPG-group. (It was my turn). Now its Monday, and I feel like I have been running enough for a week.
