Polished NZ
Kia Ora,
Some of you may have noticed posts and photos from Polised NZ...

Polished NZ is my new blog- this is dedicated to my ever growing nail polish collection and my swatches and designs... 

Be sure to check it out. 
You can find Polished NZ blog here or click the "nail polish" tab at the top of this blog or the button to Polished NZ on the right. 

agirlwithsomeclothes will continue, however this will no longer be a forum where my nail art is published. I will refocus on outfitoftheday and other random cute things..

Hopefully you stick around here too :)

Also to celebrate my new blog, Polished NZ I'm having a New Zealand only giveaway...
So kiwi's get entering!!! 

Polished NZ's Giveaway

 This is the most delicious smelling amazing and creamy cuticle oil!

I had to share!


I have been using this for about a month now (applying about every second or two days). 
Prior to this i found my cuticles felt and looked really dry - you know that white, crusty looking skin... It wasn't quite at the stage of splitting or ripping, but I feel it was very close! 
I often use pure aceton to clean up manicures - so that's rubbing it with a brush directly into my cuticle area only. 

As you can see in the photo, smooth normal coloured cuticles :)

The texture is smooth, somewhat oily... But not too greasy. Like, I wouldn't say go play on your iphone straight after application, or you will find you get streak marks and greasy residue on screen. Lemony flutter absorbes in quite well after a few minutes and you can go back to using your hands like normal (just with a more hydrating/soft hands) 

Love it! 
And you only need a tiny bit to do all your cuticles!!!! 
I do actually get spur dry elbows and use this on them too!!!!

Love love love it!
What are your thoughts? 

 Some fun Sharpie Nails...

Do you like them!?

I used:
Revlon: White on White - for the Base
Sally Hansen: Nail Art Pens in Black - for the design
Kleankolour: Neon Pink - for the design (with a thin brush)

 Today I was sitting in the lounge feeling bored and uninspired... 

This was my view:

Which ultimately became my inspiration...

We recently purchased this (and another) fake plant from Stevens... Yes fake! 
I love the look of indoor plants, however my most recent indoor plant, some cute mini ivy, did not do too well in my care ::insert sad face::
So fake it is! 

My nails, inspired by my cutie plant, are supposed to be mini leaves...
What do you think? 
I used:
OPI: thanks a windmillion - for the base
Arcrylic Paint - black and white for leaves outlines
Revlon: Wind Fall - leaves 
Essie: The more the merrier - leaves
China Glaze: Tree Hugger - leaves
China Glaze: Holly-day - leaves 

Here's a photo of the nails and their inspiring plant...

And now for the arty shot! 

What do you think? 
Like the nails? Think I should re-do with different colours?
Like my arty shot? Or think the hand looks a bit creepy! 





my day in photos...

Making a vase with an old juice bottle, some old ribbon, nail polish, a glass bead and some super-glue!

 

Shopping (aren't I always) - Jeans West is quick becoming a favourite of mine!
