Hey guys, I got a fresh new gel mani today and tomorrow I'm off to Fiji for a well-deserved holiday! 

See you!!!

Spring with Julep

Today I want to talk about nail polish options for Spring. Obviously this post is for my Southern Hemisphere chicas because I know the rest of you are probably excited about wearing snuggly sweaters and drinking hot chocolate but I am so happy about shedding my layers and wandering ouside in just a t-shirt over here in Australia. Bring on the warm weather!

I came across this street-style image that was the main inspiration for this post. This colour mix is just great and everything I want to be wearing right now on my nails i.e. cool taupes, greys and navy blues and not all the cliche pastel colours just because it's flower season.


P.S. This is NOT a sponsored post ( I just like Julep's colour options). If you want to see more click here.

bubblegum pink

Saint Laurent Ligne Y petit leather tote

Lush Bubblegum lip scrub

Marc by Marc Jacobs Rose holographic slim zippy wallet

David Jones Beauty lipstick in Nougat

Jimmy Choo Abel pump in nude patent

Deborah Marquit lace briefs

Dior Vernis Nail Lacquer in Safari beige

This bubblegum lipscrub totally smells like fizzy pink lemonade, it's sooo yummy. I just bought it today and the colour and smell inspired me to put together this mini collage of current must-haves in addition to some others on the wishlist. I also found the perfect nude lipstick at David Jones! Originally I had it in a lip palette and I didn't know it was available in an individual tube as well. I've been using it quite regularly because it looks great on my lips- not too washed out/doesn't make me look sick. It's taken me ages to find the proper nude shade for myself so I'm super happy about that. I nearly gave up my search after a few disastrous attempts at the MAC counter in Seoul.

I just stumbled across this mani inspiration in the newest issue of VogueGirl Korea. Thought it was too cute not to share even though it involves last season Spring/Summer 2013 outfits. I wish I was this talented. The Marni print is my personal fave =)

New nail colour inspiration. Was just painting my nails a few hours ago (in Essie's A-List!) so had to post. Chanel comes out with the cutest new colours every time. These remind me of fruity, summer popsicles!

The official lacquer of the season. My fingers really want to get in on that peacock-coloured business and some Rag&Bone AW11 shoes while I'm at it! Super jealous about everything I'm seeing online about Fashion's Night Out in the States! Ours (Seoul) is on September 21st!

Loving Chanel's new Fall polishes in Quartz, Péridot & Graphite. I'm really liking Péridot because it reminds me so much of peacock feathers.
Limited-edition, so get 'em while you can!
