Butter London: Slapper

More Butter London!  It has been a while since I sat down and wrote a blog post.  I have missed this!!  Aside from always loving my usual pink / red / purple polishes, I have always held a spot in my heart for teal / turquoise polishes.  I love how bright and eye-catching the colour is.  Though I do own my share of turquoise polishes, I still decided to pick up Butter London's Slapper - part of their Spring 2012 collection (along with Knackered - see post here).  I have been wearing this colour either on my toes or fingers for about 2 weeks now... I will never tire of this polish!

Trending: Neon Accessories (Spring 2012)

I LOVE neon.  I cannot express to you how much neons draw me in.  I am a sucker for bright and beautiful.  It's fantastic!  I am in love with all the neon accessories that are in all the shop fronts recently.  I'll admit I might have gone just a tad bit crazy.  Don't judge me - I adore brights!  With that being said, I thought I'd share a few things I've seen / bought / stumbled upon for those of you interested in adding a few trendy neon pieces to your spring / summer 2012 wardrobe.  Nothing says "bring on the sun" like a neon!

OOTD: Rumour Has It - Pink Leopard on Black

There is something very something very simple and sophisticated to me about wearing one solid colour and accentuating it with a "pop" - either print, a bold statement piece or colour.   That is essentially what this outfit was inspired by.  I was going for simple and yet fun - perfect for a girls night out.

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eyeliner Set in Electric: Review & Swatches

It's been a while since I picked up this travel set from Sephora - around Christmas was when it was released - but it's taken me this long to swatch it all.  First off, I have to say I have always liked Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliners.  They are pigmented, long wearing and don't shift around once they set.  These are the types of creamy pencil liner that you can smudge out or use to tight line.  I believe all of these colours are available through Urban Decay's permanent line.
