McCreamy

I picked up this beautiful grey polish from La Femme in a £1 shop today. I spotted the display of polishes and zoned in on them. Most of the colours were not really my kind of thing - a lot of metallics and pale shimmery shades - but I spotted this one at the back and bought it thinking it might be good for stamping since it looked creamy and pigmented.
I haven't put it to the stamping test yet but I think it looks great on it's own. It is a gorgeous creamy polish that is perfect in two coats. The only down side to this polish is the brush. It's kind of stiff so it leaves streak marks but they do settle themselves - it's just annoying. Nothing I can complain about considering it was such a bargain.

♪♫ Autumn leaves under frozen souls...


... hungry hands turning soft and old.

This is a beautiful song by Paolo Nutini. If you've never heard it, please give it a listen.
I just think 'Autumn Leaves' when I look at this brown stamping and then the song popped into my head!

Top Coat of NYC

I don't know if I've mentioned before, but this NYC Top Coat I always use is AMAAAZing because it doesn't smudge the Konad designs like many topcoats. I found it in a store called 'The Original Factory Shop', which is basically a seconds store, for £1 a bottle. I bought a few but they don't have any more and it's near impossible to find anywhere :(
