SUMMERTIME NAILS// fashion+style

PUT SOME SHINE ON THEM

I love the look of a nice nail polish anytime, but there are days like it seems like to much fuzz .

The one thing I don't like is when the polish starts to chip and retouching does not look great.

The shades of nail polishes are so stunning and the selection of colours unimaginable.

I usually stick with lighter shades, nothing to dark, and of course a red polish on occasion.

(like a pop of colour sometimes)

Lately i have tried to keep a more natural look using a clear polish just to add some shine to the nails- plus it doesn't look as bad if it chips slightly.
And it also protects the nails.

Another fun polish I like are ones with a bit of sparkle, in a neutral shade.
Looks nice on hands and feet, especially when wearing sandals.

HIGH END vs DRUGSTORE

I have tried the high end and drugstore versions. If I like the shade and wears well great.
Usually i get the shade i use most in the full size bottle, because it gets used up and not
dried out. Gels I find are great , they last and have a bit of a glossy look.
If I want to experiment with other shades , then smaller bottles are my choice.

What are some of your favourites for summer???

Flying high // travel

B Time to Fly Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience. So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada . And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines. I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned and I won’t be booking any trips with them! Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs that should be included , NOT an extra expense. Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees then read this report via BBC. Truthfully people need to tell these companies NO . Even a handbag is next to the list. They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people . Festivals , Films and Fashion The festival season is winding down, but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it! The return of Clooney on screen in Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight. Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show! Of course there were other stars on the red carpet but no outstanding dresses . Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not sure what I be tempted to watch. Julia Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment. One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
