Happy World Book Day!

Hey everyone!

It's World Book Day today!

As a self-proclaimed book nerd, it feels right to do a post on this day of celebrating books, even if I did only find out about this morning because of twitter.



I remember in primary school it was always my favourite school day of the year as we got to sit around and read for most of the day, with little writing exercises and games in between. And, of course, we got to dress up as our 'favourite book character'. Basically, we got to see each other in princess and pirate and alien costumes, which yknow, is pretty funny!

Ah I miss those days! Anyway, reading basically took over my life, and as sad as it may sound, books are my friends (though I do of course have real friends too- hi guys!) and they're even my comfort blanked. Bad day? I go and read a book.

So as you can see, at the moment I'm reading through JK Rowling's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (I'm determined to finish these at some point and then have a marathon of the movies to compare/celebrate). I'm also starting A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin so I can hopefully overtake the TV show at some point in the probably very distant future. 
Though, this weekend I plan to read Patricia Briggs' new book "Dead Heat" which came out on Tuesday... as well as write two essays. Yippee! 
See you all tomorrow for a nail post though! Happy World Book Day!

Are you reading anything good at the moment? Let me know in the comments!

Mail: Rimmel Velvet Matte Midnight Kiss Swatch!

Hello everyone! Before we get started, it's very very nice to see you all here- my hugest apologies for being so bad with posting lately. Moving away from home really takes it out of you, and my Uni's "Welcome Week" timetable was craaazy! Though I got to go to Chester zoo... Which was awesome! Anyway, let's crack on with the post shall we?  Today, I'm bringing to you a recent release and purchase. Rimmel London's "Velvet Matte" polishes were released alongside their new Matte Apocolips range, and a new selection of some "Rimmel by Kate" products!  I purchased three new polishes- two Velvet Matte's in the shade "Midnight Kiss" and "Sumptuous Red" (love the names!) which are a dark blue and pinky-purple, and also a new Salon Pro by Kate called "Saturn" which looks amazing.  Today, I'm swatching Midnight Kiss for you guys, but keep an eye out for the other two coming this week! ...
