Penneys nail varnish review

Hi dolls.

I just began buying nail varnish again. God knows why I never really bought it. You can be so creative with it. 

The one I bought is limited collection from Penneys. There are three nail varnishes in a box. The colours i chose are lilac she'll, pink ice and pink shine.

The pink shine and lilac shell are great colours for a base colour for the day time and then if you want to make your outfit sparkle for night time, you can add the pink ice. That is the colour in the picture below in the middle.

It also drys quickly, within one minute or less and you can add it to any outfit. Especially black, white and pink. The sparkles brighten any outfit up.



I love it and it only cost €4 for the whole set, so go and get it before it sells out girlies.

These are the reasons why I love it but let me know what you think.

Until next time...

Mes amis,

Cannes Film Festival

Hi Dolls,

Literally just finished my final year exams so that's why I haven't been writing in a while.

I will try to write every week and perhaps every day or every couple of days since I have some time on my hands now.

So the Cannes Film Festival took place on the 16th of May this year.

One of the sexiest festivals of the year (because it's located in France)

Here are my best dressed.

Black beauties





Sienne Miller in Sonia Rykiel.
Michelle Rodriguez in Elie Saab.
Naomi Watts inBlack Tulle and Lace.
Camila Alves in Gabriela Cadna.

All of these dresses are fab, but my favourite of all of these stunning black dresses is the 



Beautiful in Blue




Sonam Kapoor in Ralph and Russo.
Lea Seudoux in Miu Miu
Marie Gillian in Elie Saab.
Eva Longoria in Atelier Versace


White Angels




Zoe Kravitz in Valentino.
Lelia Bekhti in Fishtail Train.
Andie McDowell in Ralph and Russo.
Rachel Weisz in Narciso Rodriguez.

Random Colours












Salma Hayek in Gucci.
Charlize Theron in Christian Dior Couture.
Natile Portman in Dior.
Lupita Nyong in Gucci.
Naomi Watts in Elie Saab.
Heike Makatsch inBallerina Tulle.
Lala Rudge inBlue Lace.
Cheryl Cole in Ralph and Russo.


My favourite best dress of all mentioned above has to be... Andie McDowell.
The dress is just so elegant with a hint of sexiness to it all at once. It also fits her figure perfectly. 
definitely the best dressed in my opinion.


Worst dressed
This dress doesn't fit her properly and has random parts which are see throu which looks really odd. 

This dress it too plain with a random coloured strap which would work well if it was used as a belt for the dress.

This outfit is all a bit too much. There is too much going on and I don't think it is suitable for an event such as this one. The coat also does not do anything for the outfit. Make it look clumpy.

The colours o this dress do not work well together AT ALL. The patterns are all wrong and clash. The only nice thing about this outfit are the shoes.

This dress look like a duvet which she got off her bed. The material makes her look bigger than she is and the trail is too long. The colour is too pale for her skintone. the whole outfit just does not work well.

This outfit is too plain. Is it a jumpsuit or a dress?? Who knows!! The cape part is not working for me wither. If it was in a different colour it could possibly work.


This look like something from the 90's. There is also random pieces of material sewn to random parts of the dress. Definitely not something I would wear. A child could have designed this dress. 


I hope you like my comments and I would like if you had different opinions to mine.

Until next time...

Au revior

Afternoon tea outfit, darlings

So it's the month of January and everybody is depressed because Christmas is over.

Well, not me... because January is my BIRTHDAY MONTH!!! :D

I kicked it off with a big bang on Sunday the 18th of January,

It was afternoon teas hosted by my grand mama (I don't actually call her that) an this is what I wore for the special occasion.


Palazzo Pants €12 on sale, New Look
I wanted to wear something different yet fashionable, so I saw these on sale in New Look. They cost €12 and I wear them to special occasions and once to a 21st. Best 21st ever. They are so comfortable as well. I love the pattern on them. It makes them stand out. They also look good with flat shoes or high heels. Both of these can be seen in my previous blogs "Dressy casual night look". 

Peach/light pink blazer €12, New Look

When I saw this blazer in New Look I just had to have it. I love colours and needed something for a night out. It cost €12, same as the palazzo pants above. This was on sale also. You can wear it with leather looking jeans, the pants above, jeans if going to lunch with girlfriends and anything you can think of. 

Clutch bag, New Look

I got this bag as a present from one of my friends at Christmas time so I don't know how much it cost, but I saw it in New Look when I was in there the other day and they also have it in black. You would think it wouldn't go with the colour of the peach/pale pink blazer but it works. Especially because the bottom half of my outfit was a dark colour.

I wore a simple white tank top with it which brightens up the outfit in this winters month.

You could also wear some bangles or a long necklace to make the outfit pop with sparkles if you were heading out on the town, but since it was afternoon tea I decided to keep it simple. 

This is my finished outfit:

Thanks for reading dolls.

Golden Globes

On Sunday evening the 72nd Golden Globes annual event took place and as always, there was so much beauty and glamour at it.

Here are the nominations by ace courutre for the best dressed by category of colour. 

Who was ace couture's best dressed, male and female? Read on to find out.

Let me know which dress is your ultimate favourite and let me know in the comments below.



Red Hot!!
























Taylor Schilling wore a Ralph Lauren which compliments her skintone and body shape.

Heidi Klum wore Nick Verros and look ABSOLUTELY stunning in it for her age. I especially love the one shoulder on this dress. It looks very classic and the hint of glitter at the waist makes it.

Christine Baranski wore Posen. I chose her dress because of the simplicity of it and for her age she can definitely pull this dress off.

Kate Mara wearing Miu Miu. The belt really pulls this dress together and makes it modern.

Jane Fonda wearing a VERY sexy Versace dress. See-thru on one side. Go Jane!

Allison Williams really pulling off a long sequenced dress. Not many people can do this. Made by Armani Prive.




Beauties in Black 



Amal Clooney looking elegant in Dior. 

Jennifer Aniston pulling it off as always in a stunning black Saint Laurent dress. 

Gina Rodriguez in this simple yet very chic black skin tight dress by Badgley Mischka. The lace at the end of the dress makes it look elegant.

Liberty Ross wearing another skin tight dress. What makes this different from Gina Rodriguez's dress is that it has a little train and square on top instead of the sweetheart neckline. 

Frances O' Connor wearing a puffed out dress yet very stylish top of the dress. 





White Angels




Julia Louis-Dreyfus (woman crush) wearing a very simplistic but stunning dress for her figure. Designer is Narciso Rodriguez. 

Emily Blunt wearing Michael Korrs. Love the simple detail of the cross accross the chest. 

Kate Hudson (another woman crush) wearing Atelier Versace and looking STUNNING. Loving the design of the dress. See skin but not too much, therefore classic. 

Salma Hayek wearing Alexander McQueen and this material looks like it might not work well in a dress, but it does and she certainly pulls it off. 

Felicity Huffman pulling off a gorgeous knee length white dress with sexy slits down the side which makes it work for the Golden Globes.





Gorgeous in Green 



Conchita Wurst wearing a fab waistcoat dress. Even though this is a man, he looks fab in this dress. (except for the beard. :P) 

Shaun Robinson looking stunning in a fitted dress with simple detail and the colour compliments her skintone. 





Metallic 







Jennifer Lopez wearing Zurhair Murad and looks absolutely stunning as always. 

Kate Beckinsale in Ellie Sab. Love the sparkle of the top part of the dress and the simplicity of the end. Works well together.

Diane Kruger looking memorizing in this dress by Emilia Wickstead.

Behati Prinsloo wearing a crop top and long skirt, yet it amazingly looks elegant because of the colour and not too sparkly. Designer is Kaufmanfranco.

Jessica Chastain always chooses the best dresses to suit her figure and she has slammed it this year. Definitely one of her best dresses on the red carpet so far. She is wearing Versace. 





Blue Beauties




Amy Adams looking curvelicious in Versace. The colour blue really suits her skintone and hair colour. 

Maria Menounos looking spectacular in this sequenced dark blue dress. 

Katherine Heigl Looking spectaculare and I mean spectacular in this Zac Posen dress. She really wear that dress with sexiness. 

Julia Goldani Telles wears a beautiful royal blue silk dress with an unusual design which works well. Fab! 




Pretties in Pink






Chrissy Teigen wearing Zuhair Murad. Loving the lace. Really compliments her figure. 

Camila Alves pretty in pink wearing Monique Lihuiller. Loving the cropped part of the dress, Makes the dress fab but chic. 

Giuliana Rancic wearing slightly pink gown. The only part I do not like about this is the ruffles. If the dress did not have the ruffles, it would be much nicer. 







Monochrome






















Katie Cassidy

Emma Stone going bold but very beautiful this year wearing a jumpsuit by Lanvin.

Quvenzhané Wallis looking adorable in Giorgio Armani. Loving the colour blocking and the belt pulls the dress together.
