Coral Touch

Coral is one of my favourite colours for summer. It reminds me of holidays, sunshine and cocktails and is generally just a beautiful colour.

My current summer staples are my coral bag and coral nail varnish.

My lovely coral bag is perfect for my summer needs. It’s the perfect size to hold my purse, sunglasses, sun cream, make-up and a drink. Versatile and pretty; it compliment’s most of my summer outfits and (in my opinion) looks more expensive than it was. From ASOS, it was an excellent investment.

Coral nail varnish is currently my favourite shade to paint my nails.

I recently purchased these two shades from Barry M. Peach Melba (left) is more of a muted, pastel orange. Papaya (right) is from Barry M’s new Gelly range and is my favourite. It provides a high shine and is the shade of coral.

I recently painted my nails Peach Melba with one Papaya nail. coral4            coral3

Pretty and simple – this is currently my favourite way to paint my nails.

Currently, I am on the hunt for the perfect coral lipstick. Being pale and blonde, I don’t want to go too bright. I haven’t found the perfect one yet but my quest continues. Watch this space…

Lilac Love

Continuing with my Items I cannot live without theme here is my next item... lilac nail varnish!

Lilac is my favourite colour (hence this blog's background) and whenever I paint my nails any other colour it just doesn't feel right.

The colour, I think, just suits me. I know it may sound strange but whenever I paint my nails a different colour such as red I hate looking at my hands.

Lilac and other pastel shades also make me feel summer is on it's way and puts me in a good mood which is an added bonus.
 

I had a phase of washing my hair with lilac shampoo so it's safe to say I am slightly obsessed. Lilac is such a girly colour so it suits me perfectly.
 
Currently, I am using a pastel, lilac Barry M shade but there are plenty of brands out there with lovely lilac colours.
 
 
I am a big fan of pastels and as they are set to be big in SS13 a slick of nail varnish is the perfect way to incorporate the trend into your style.
 
What's your favourite shade to paint your nails with?
