Finally got a much-needed break from the stress of finals and papers. I would so much rather be shopping for Christmas presents and relaxing! December 17 can't come soon enough...

In the spirit of the season I also decided to adapt my pink gradient nails with a more holiday-appropriate green colour palette. It turned out a lot better than I thought it would!

And while I was at it with all the picture-taking, I figured I might as well do a FOTD too. I've been getting a lot of use out of my MAC Tartan Tale palette (it really does make the perfect purple-hued smoky eye).

ReplyDelete@Kileen, Vegas Volt is soooo out of my comfort zone - I have to blot it like crazy!
ReplyDelete@Hazel, thank you! I like those boots so much I own two pairs!
Yup same here. It seems that most people are using it as a concealer more than anything else but I've tried better concealers for less :/
ReplyDeleteOoh another Canadian blogger! There are not too many here hehe ^^
Those nails are so pretty! I've never seen anything like that before. Very festive for the holidays. :)
ReplyDeleteYour Zara top is so pretty! And so is your makeup :) I love the highlight on your eyes :)
