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???

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

 Doing Denim  I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable.  For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short.  I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days.  Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it.  Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets.  There are so many ways to style a denim dress.  A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses  I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck. 

Favorite Things 2023//fashion , items

 Favorite things  I really didn’t go overboard with any purchases in 2023.  Trying to keep to the sustainable fashion idea  of shopping my closet or using what I have .  Mind you there were somethings I thought about getting like a new pair of sunglasses, some shoes  sandals, new purse , but I still need new sunglasses. My old pair has some scratches on them sadly.  The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again.  Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring.  The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece.   The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it  was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents.  It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it.  ...
