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???

Pockets please!!/ fashion

  Well as the title says…. Pocket s please!  This week has been a very painful week. I recently injured my knee badly. Not able to move stand or walk. When finally bit better I finally  managed to move . I needed something to wear that I could put my phone in , glasses medicine in. Any dress I thought I could use didn’t have pockets for anything.  Why???  When I think back there usually  were pocket inserts nicely sewn  on inside of slacks or dresses.  Now you rarely find that .  I guess it’s a cost saving , less material needed and no extra time used sewing a pockrr er r in.  Maybe it’s to give an outfit a more neat look, no bulging pockets.   Meanwhile mens wear there are always pockets.  Do you like outfit with pockets?  

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...
