My NOTD's of the Week


This week there is not much to show you despite how exiting it was nail polish wise ;-). I did my first Twinsie Post with lovely Radha (more of it below) and received my anxiously awaited Zoya Pixie Dust polishes and FINALLY my Opi Euro Centrale Minis.

The first polish I wore I just presented earlier this week here so just a small photo and a link to go by. Click here to read my original post on Chanel Fracas


If you are a regular reader of my Blog you might remember that I met my sister in nailpolish from Brazil in Paris some weeks ago. She gave me a bag filled with Brazilian goodies - oh Priscilla I cannot tell you just how awesome they are. Just have a look at Passe Nati Olho Turco:



I applied two coats of Olho Turco over Essence XXL Nail Thickener and added one coat of Butter London Hardwear. The formula is perfect, drying time normal. AND no staining upon removal. 

My next NOTD I already showed in my first ever Twinsie Post together with my lovey Radha from The Polish Owl on Takko Lacquer Kiss The Sky. I snapped another picture outdoors:


In the above picture you can see a hint of green in the shimmer. This green pops up every so often when turning and twisting the hand in daylight.

Unfortunately I fell sick like a dog on Thursday night and felt like death warmed over for the better part of Friday but luckily I had my love M looking after me wonderfully and nurse Nell kept an eye on me all day ;-). As I type up this post I am back to my old self and just ever so glad that it was no more than something wrong with dinner apparently.


Any favorites among the above? 

I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!
Christine

    1. Hi love, yeah I am so happy too!!!! I think your cat's name is Ms. Smilla and she is 9 years? Yes the blue is OUTSTANDING!!! I should not have put anything on top of it but I desperately wanted to try the Takko Lacquer. Well this was not beneficial whether for the base nor the top. Ramblings aside - M just called YOUR PARCEL IS ALREADY HERE!!!! I have sent yours some minutes ago and it should be with you within 3-5 days xxx

  5. Still completely loving that Fracas, sis! So glad you're finally feeling better. It's so very lovely to have someone wonderful taking care of us when we're under the weather. And-- awwww, what a good little nurse baby ♥♥ Nell looks like such a dear. My Sal Pal spent many hours sleeping on my stomach/chest/legs when I was sick. Little animals are so wonderful. Hope you're enjoying the rest of your weekend ♥

    1. Hi sis, hahaha I thought you would comment something along those lines :-)!!! Yeah what a misly downtime - eeek!!! We are two lucky ducks I think (sigh, pink glasses and all). I am so with you, I cannot fathom a life without this furball and the amount of joy and friendship he has shown so far is a lot (in cat terms of course). I would not know if he could have carried on a second day of guard keeping, he usually gets tired of it after one day!!! Have a great start into the new week love xxx
