February 25, 2011 Leggings and new boots.

Pining for these.

As seen on Claire Incorruptable's website. Check out their website for more delicious high fashion vintage and designer knock-offs, straight from down under. Beware though, it's a little pricey.

Also feeling excited about my new boots from Acne, which are completely inappropriate for spring. They are the taller version of the draw ankle boots, in black leather. Couldn't find a picture of the ones I got, but this should give you an idea.

February 25, 2011 Nail polish trends for Spring 2011

Spring is bursting at the seams and its time for bright and colourful polish for your spring-nails.
Peach, nudes, green, pale blue and lavender. Heres a quick pick of great nail polishes for the season.

Theres no getting around Essie (for spring or ever for that matter). Let alone their spring 2011 nail polish collection French Affair.

Beautiful pastel hues in the colours Nice is Nice, Cote Azure and French Affair. Pretty and coquettish for all your spring nail needs, fits perfectly with 60's silhouettes and bouncy ponytails.

I also adore the more neutral shades in the collection, Topless & Barefoot, Sand Tropez and Kisses And Bises. Sandy, creamy and light, they are a more toned down and relaxed side of the French Affair collection.

When going for neutral and soft shades, as nudes remain a fashion stable, one shouldn't forget another classic from Essie, Ballet Slippers and Chanel's lovely Inattendu (pictured here with Chanel's other nail polishes, Particulière and Tendresse, also from 2010), which both remain two of my favourite neutral nail polishes for spring.

I wont be going for these myself, but it's difficult to get around gun metal grays and shiny topcoatings. Heres a bid from Chanel in the form of Black Pearl and Mac's Very Important Platinum.

And finally, for a burst of colour, I'm going for coral shades and green, green, green. Heres Coral Reef, also from Essie and Pretty Edgy, also from...well, Essie. This is turning out to be a pretty Essie-dominated post. Sorry about that :)

For a cheaper alternative, H&M is currently stocking Spring Nails nail polishes, which are small pocket sized nail polishes in delightful spring colours. I recently acquired a cute coral and a pastel yellow, that I can't wait to wear.
