Okay, this post is going to be a little more geared towards my Australian readers, but even if you live outside Australia you are most certainly free to ogle my pretty pictures anyway. I’d like to take a moment to introduce you gals to a little site called Ozsale. I first heard about Ozsale over at Nails in the Desert when they were offering cheap Bloom polishes. I quickly signed up and I have placed a bunch of orders since. They send through an email each morning to let you know what’s on sale and you’d be surprised by some [...]

Oh man, what is it, Friday? And this is my first actual post of the week? Blogger fail. Clearly this is not elite bloggery. Considering I’m such a shitty blogger, it’s a good thing that I didn’t end up taking up a spot on the ABBW, co-organised by the lovely Jacie from You’ve Got Nail, who totally didn’t accidentally buy a vajazzle. I’ve had an awesome week. Apart from IMATS, I got to see Motley Crue rock the roof off the Sydney Entertainment Centre (with Poison’s Bret Michaels as support), and I also celebrated my eight year anniversary with my [...]

Sorry about the lack of Saturday Swatch Party this week. Yesterday was a long day and the last thing I wanted to do was swatch after a 5am start and all day on a shopping bus hitting clearance outlets with Em. We got home late and exhausted, but many a bargain was had (Hello, $50 Wayne Cooper dress, anyone?). Sadly, there were no cosmetics outlets but we both bought some awesome stuff and I look forward to another shopping bus trip later in the year. Also, I’m wearing $OPI Rumba Romance and it is too damn pretty to take off [...]

Sup beetches? (You know I mean that in a totally non derogatory and excellently gangsta way. You are all my homies. Word.) I’ve made a few additions in the last 24 hours to Pretty Random that I’d like to share with you all. I’ve added two new reference guides – Blue Cross Meteorites and Hard Candy! I’ve been wanting to add my Hard Candy’s for quite a while now, but haven’t had the time. The Meteorites were a recent purchase and they were just way too pretty to not be photographed. If you’re interested in these, there are still a [...]

Unfortunately I’m still unable to swatch anything because my nails just keep breaking off. I don’t know what it is. My diet is the same, my vitamin intake the same. Maybe it’s the Australian weather getting colder. I’ll have to start using my lemony flutter a lot more regularly. But the point of the matter is my nails look like horrible gnarled shadows of their former greatness so I’ll spare you the horror of new swatches until they are looking more respectable. I only posted my Saturday Swatch Party last week and I want to get into the habit of [...]

Hiya homies! I’m back from the other side of the world, and let me tell you, I had a BLAST! I left the incomparable MsNixxy behind, but from what I can gather, she’s faring quite well without me! I wonder if she has found any more cool polish! Speaking of finding cool polish, I was surprised at how much polish I didn’t find! I went over there fully expecting to go crazy ape bananas in places like Boots and Superdrug – not to mention Selfridges, but the reality of what I came home with was a lot more meagre. But [...]

Hey guys! I’ve fallen behind with my blogging again. I’ve been working long hours and for some reason ultra busy when I’m not working which has resulted in not much time to swatch or write. I’m working hard to make the time to get some swatching in, but rather go all in with the blogging and attempting to catch up, I figured I’d just start scheduling entries for when I get back from my UK trip with MsNixxy, because let’s face it – there’s no way I’ll be able to write five entries a week in between then and now, [...]

Can you believe I have made it through a whole week of posting?! Yay me! If I can bang out a review or two for BMovieChicks.com, this will have been my most productive week in the last few months! First of all, I finally got to putting together another dupe for you all, and I didn’t go easy – I’ve pulled out all the stops for this one… Prepare to have your mind blown out your patootie because ESSIE DOMINICA GREEN HAS DUPES, YO. Nat Robbins Greed, Essie Dominica Green, Finger Paints Sketch & Etch Dominica Green was my white [...]

Well another week of this torturous no-buy has passed, and while I wouldn’t say that I have a spotless record, I’m still doing pretty okay. Saving for my trip is well on track and I can hardly believe that it’s only six weeks away now! My boyfriend’s computer is at the opposite end of the study to where I take my pictures, and he happened to be sitting at his computer when I was preparing shots for the new stuff that had arrived. Normally he doesn’t pay too much attention to what I do with my nails or my polishes, [...]

Wow. What a week! Unfortunately it was all work, work, work and hardly any play though so once again, I arrive (almost) empty handed. I was going to wait until I had some swatches again to post, but I found a whole heap of haul pics on my camera, and even got around to setting up my light box again to take pics of the new stuff. So well… here we are. My nails have grown back to a respectable level so hopefully I won’t break them again and I’ll be able to swatch more stuff over the weekend. I [...]
