NOTD: Revlon Colorstay 'Vintage Rose'

So i went a little nail varnish crazy the other day in the Boots 3-for-2 offers and ended up with about 8 nail varnishes. Don't ask me how that adds up to 3-for-2! Here one of the polishes i got-Revlon's Vintage Rose!


Its the first polish i bought from this colorstay range and i really like it so far. Its lasted really well with minimal chipping and i've had loads of complements on the colour! Its a lot darker on the nails than in the photo but i struggled to get a good one! The Daily Varnish has better photos of this polish which you can see here

I'd really recommend this polish and can't wait to try the other colours i bought from this range! 

What are your thoughts on Revlon's nail varnishes?

Things that have made me happy this week!

1.) Seeing my coursemates in lectures again- they really brighten my day.
2.) Taking my new uni bag on its first outing this week- definitely my favourite xmas present!
3.) My housemate asking for my advice on how to use Excel and constantly calling it Edexcel! You can tell she's a humanities student!
4.) The Great Comic Relief Bake Off. Need i say more?
5.) Text from dog. Again need i say more? My friends and i have been in hysterics at it all evening!
6.) Getting a hair cut and actually liking it! Hopefully i've found a great place to go in Manchester :D 7.) Buying way too much nail varnish (damn Boots and their 3-for-2 offers!)
How cute is this?! :D

Comfy, cosy, revision OOTD

So i spent a lot of January in my room revising. Comfort and warmth are often my number 1 priority! Here are a few pictures i took of my outfit one day...


The top is one i got last spring from the Tall section of Dorothy Perkins- as i am very tall! I wore this over Topshop leggings, again from the Tall section, as they're much comfier to sit in than jeans! 

And of course you need some fuzzy socks!! 


Excuse the horrible face photo but i was keen to get back to work, and am not a fan of taking photos of my face anyways! I like to keep my make up pretty simple most of the time when it comes to revision. I wish i could remember which foundation this is as it photographed well! 

But keep an eye out for my upcoming January Favourites as there'll be lots of products that helped me through the revision period!
