Celebrity Bash


I've only just realised that I've been holding out on you guys.
I still haven't introduced you to my favourite Autumnal nail polish. Meet 'Celebrity Bash'. Rimmel isn't normally a brand I go to for nail varnish, (I'm Barry Ms' biggest fan) but every winter I come running back to this shade.
I like to wear it with just one coat and a top coat, so it's a gorgeous raspberry kind of shade, and I think it looks really great with a tan (more on that later). Sometimes I pop another coat on top if I want more of a darker wintery look. I do find with one coat it chips a lot easier, but I'm willing to sacrifice this, I just love the shade so much.
The brush in this polish is my fav, I have quite fat nails, this sounds weird. I mean, wide I guess? Anyway you can see from the photos. The brush is large and thick, so spreads over quite a lot of my nail, meaning it's pretty quick for me. Oh, I know this is really lame, but I really enjoy the name of this varnish too... told you it was lame.
Have you tried celebrity bash? What are your favourite Autumn nail varnish shades?

I've just settled down at my desk today with my cosey cardy and a tasty caremel macchiato, yum! I do enjoy a good Starbucks on a crisp Autumn morning, I do!! Oh, and excuse the lack of lipstick and the helmet hair wont you??
Anyway, I've been thinking about deleting some of my older posts, I find them a little embarrassing, messy and just don't really like them.
I had a little conversation on twitter with Jessica (go and check out her beauty and lifestyle blog, its really cute) about it. We came to the conclusion that it's kind of nice for readers to go back to older posts and see how far your blog has come, and how much it's changed.

I guess it's okay not to be brilliant at something, and not really know what you're doing when you first start out. That's one of the things I love about blogging and the blogging community, every one is always striving to improve. There's so much ambition, and that's really inspiring. I know I always look at other peoples' blogs and compare mine to theirs, but that just makes me pleased for them that they're doing so well, and it only makes me strive to improve. What do you think about it all? Have you ever been tempted to delete older posts to make your blog appear better?

Oh, if you follow my blog, don't forget to enter my Topshop giveaway, 4 days left to enter, good luck!

  1. What a lovely colour, I really like it! Personally I tend to lean on the purple side as I am ultra pale and reds tend to wash me out but I am looking forward to reading you tan post.

    Love your blog, I am your new stalker!

  3. What a gorgeous colour, might consider this to wear during autumn! And I think you should keep older posts, they may drag everything down a bit but I love reading older posts to see how different bloggers improve and get better as they go along.. which is completely natural. Noone hit's the mark instantly when they get into the blogging world!

  6. I loveeeee caramel macchiatos, they're so good! I've frequently been tempted to delete older posts, but I refrain because yeah, I know how people like to look back on them, and I do too because it reminds what I was doing then :) x

  9. That's a gorgeous shade! I love rimmel's nail polish range. Colours are fab and the staying power is impressive. I feel the same about my youtube & blog. But it is good to keep old stuff to keep as reference of how far you've come :) xxx
