I hope you all had a lovely Christmas!
I’m someone who enjoys the build-up to Christmas far more
than the day itself.
However, I did have a lovely day with my family gorging on
great food and wine. Then as a treat my boyfriend came on Boxing day which made
me a very happy girl!
This year I bought myself two presents…
O.P.I.’s I’m not
really a waitress – I’ve been hunting for the perfect red nail polish for
years, one that is not post-box red but a classy non-clashing red. And I do
believe I have found my soulmate red in this colour.
I had heard so many good
things about I’m not really a waitress,
for example did you know that it is O.P.I.’s most popular shade of red and their best selling nail lacquer of
all time?! I mean, you can’t argue with that can you.
And, on top of that it was originally released in 1999 as
part of O.P.I.’s Hollywood Collection which for me just emphasises the sexy,
classic glamour that comes with this colour.
I think it will be my new fall-back colour, if I ever can’t
decide what colour to paint my nails I will be making a bee line to this one.
I love this colour, even after a few days of wearing it I
still stop to stare at my nails and admire the micro-shimmers which just gives
it an extra pazaz! It’s got a classic, timeless look – I can see this being in
my collection for the rest of my days!
My second present to myself was seasons one and two of
Gossip Girl which is another of my obsessions (See here and here).
After
watching the final episode last week I knew that I wanted to own it so I
stalked ebay and found the seasons one and two box-set for under £10!
I plan to buy the other seasons too so that I can have Blair
and Chuck forever!
