Nails Inc Bargain Purchase

Monday, 8 June 2015

I'm not one to spend my money on myself, even my mum comments that the moths are flying out of my purse. However, I just could not resist the urge when I came across a picture on Nails Inc's Instagram page.

If you open up my drawer in my room, avert your eyes from the thousands of hair grips, rubber colourful bands that were so cool to collect in my teenage years and have yet to throw away, you will come across my nail varnish collection. 
A mix from Barry M to Boots, Fearne Collection, there is one brand that takes up the majority, Nails Inc.
However, if there is one thing that is a re-occuring factor between them all, it's the dark colours consisting of red, black, and the occasional blue.

While at work I had a quick flick through my Instagram feed, don't be so shocked, we've all done it.. admit it. I was about to lock my phone, when a photo came up from Nails Inc about a sale they had online.
Brilliant I thought, 7 pastel colours for the price of, well, not even 2 colours. The normal retail price of a Nails Inc colour is £11 each, therefore this should of cost me £77 plus delivery. 
Could you believe my shock when the varnishes cost only £18 plus delivery. I didn't want to be greedy on this bargain, so shared the image straight away on Instagram, just hope you guys saw it.

Have you come across any bargains recently? I'm yet to try these colours out but it brings a dash of colour to my dark selection.

Five for Friday

Friday, 5 June 2015

After a very busy week last week, I decided to go for a quite one this week. Didn't help that I've been ill for the past two days.. So instead of five, it's more like three..

Visited Granddad
It was nice to get out of the house and give Grandma a break from caring Granddad. What wasn't nice, or expected, was him to forget my name. Bless him, he is 93!

Animals making me chuckle
As horrible as it is, I get a kick out of making my cats jump and watching Digby chase his tail.
One day I will get this on camera and upload to YouTube...

Song Lyrics
This actually came to light while at work.
Jason Derulo's, Want To Want Me came on the radio and my colleague burst out laughing. 
Apparently at the beginning of the song, it sounds like 'I've got the shits on the floor.'
Yeah, I can't listen to that song any more..


Like I said, it's been an odd week so quite short. What has been the highlight of your week?

Five for Friday

Friday, 29 May 2015

I'm pretty sure I'm not the first, or only one, who has decided to post about five good things on a Friday. I want to motivate myself into blogging, so here we go:


Bathed in 9 months
Don't judge. I've had numerous showers since. 
As my brother has jetted off to Canada for 4 months, he has ownership of the family bath, we've sprayed the disinfectant and binned the breathing apparatus.
I then soaked until I was a wrinkled old prune!


Trip to London
This isn't unusual for me, but what is, is meeting people I've never met before.
On Saturday I caught the train to London to meet Beth from What She Did and Clare from The Love of all things Beauty. We had a lovely day of giggles, make up and the most AMAZING milkshakes from Lola's Cupcakes. We had such a lovely day, this was the only photo I took, inside Liberty's.




Five little Ducklings
Soon after I arrived back from London, I was surprised to find these lot in my garden. How cute?!



A true girls night out...
Gone are the days of dancing in clubs and drinking until you are considerably merry. After having a lovely meal at our local Cosy Club with the girls form the hotel I worked in, we all went back to a friends house to play with her new kitten, Marie. 
Such a wild night.. ;)


Cinema trip
Tonight I am looking forward to seeing Pitch Perfect 2 with another friend of mine. I absolutely loved the first and slightly excited for the sequel. Have you seen it yet?

So that's my #FiveforFriday, what's yours? Anything slightly more fun than playing with a kitten? Comment below :)
