My Top 5 Festive Nail Polishes

Christmas is my favourite time of year to wear nail polish. As much as I like pastels in the Spring and neon's in the Summer. I adore dark, glittery shades for the colder months. I have picked my top 5 :
 
L-R OPI Affair in Red Square - Models Own Purple Blue - OPI Golden Eye - Essie Bahama Mama - OPI The Living Daylights
 
 
 
OPI Affair in Red Square- This is a really deep red with slight shimmer. It is so festive, and red nails always make me feel so glamorous. The application is lovely, it is nearly opaque after one coat.
 
Models Own Purple Blue- Strictly speaking, this shade isn't really festive, but I love wearing it out. It is a lovely party colour. It catches the light beautifully as it is duo-chrome. (It is part of the Beetlejuice Collection).
 
OPI Golden Eye- Without a doubt, this is my favourite nail polish of the moment! It was a bargain too, as I managed to grab it on ASOS for £4! It is part of the A/W James Bond Collection and it is the most stunning Christmas shade. It is a glitter polish, and usually OPI glitter polishes are a right pain to get off, but this one is fine!
 
Essie Bahama Mama- In September/ October, every beauty blogger seemed to be raving about this. I bought it whilst in America, and still love it. It is very simple, but looks great on the nails.
 
OPI The Living Daylights- This is also from the James Bond Collection. This time last year, OPI Rainbow Connection was all anybody wanted for Christmas. And whilst this polish isn't as colourful, it is just as pretty. The main glitter particles are orange, gold, silver and teal. It looks lovely over any colour and on one finger or all of them!
 
What are your favourite festive nail polishes?

Wednesday Wishlist #13



1. Essie Bahama Mama- Being a lover of autumn/ fall, I am always on the look out for autumnal colours. After seeing Fleur's review of it, I immediately fell in love. It is a beautiful burgundy colour which is looks perfect for the time of year!
RRP: £7.99
 
2. Rimmel London Kate Moss Matte Lipsticks- Its safe to say, I have been a little obsessed with Rimmel products as of late. These new lipsticks are going to be released on 3rd October, and I can safely say, there is not a colour that I do not want to get my hands on! I especially love the look of the mulberry/ wine shade and the nude. (which is supposedly a good dupe for MAC's Creme d'Nude?).
RRP: £5.49
 
3. New Look Fairisle Jumper- I never really jumped on the fairisle band waggon last year; but I am pleased to see it returning this A/W. I think this jumper would look perfect with simple jeans, or a plain flowy skirt. I think the pattern is so Christmassy!
RRP: £14.99
 
4. New Look Red 3/4 Sleeve Dress- I really want a dress for this season. I think red is such a seasonal colour that can be so easily dressed up or down. I have my eye on some studded boots from Primark that I think it will look perfect with! And this dress is such a bargain!
RRP: £12.99
 
5. New Look Owl Print Top- So clearly, New Look clothes have really caught my eye this week! I am loving owl prints, and I really like this style of shirt. Again, it would be very versatile!
RRP: £19.99
