Winter warmer nails

So this time of year a lot of blog posts on nail colours are on deep reds and purples, but unfortunately 

with my pale colouring I look like I'm preparing for halloween.  So here are my winter warmer picks ...

Urban purple and Raspberry may look like pretty much the same colour, so your probably wondering why I would put both if these in this post?  Urban purple is a much warmer tone on the nail, and the brush is amazing!! It goes on so easily and one coat is all you need, while Rasberry is a cooler tone, with a thinner brush but I love both the same!

301 is a matte nails colour from Topshop.  I'm not usually a fan of orange nail varnish but with it being matte it's just perfect especially for this time of year.

My final winter warmer pick is another Topshop one, Powder.  I bought this at the beginning of summer but seems I've only just fallen in love with it! It's a really soft pink but with flecks of silver that give your nails a festive sparkle.

I'm always on the look out for new colours to try, do you have a favourite colour? Let me know!

Winter ice nails

While many of you are reaching for the beautiful plum colours that are so popular right now how about a different take on our winter nails?  These are my six winter ice favourites, now wishing for snow will only get any of us so far but with these colours we can all have a lil bit of snow and icy sparkle this winter.

Barry M - Pure Turquoise 

Nails inc - Cambridge Terrace 

Topshop - Beleza 

Maxfactor - Prussian Blue

Barry M - Cobalt Blue

Barry M - Blue Moon 

I can't seem to go wrong with a Barry M nail colours they always go on so well and last!!  And with the amount of colours they have you will always find the right colour for every occasion.

Some metallic colours can go on a big patchy and take a ridiculous amount of coats to look just ok, but Cambridge terrace from nails inc is amazing, it's the one I always recommend if someone is looking for a beautiful silver.

I love the little Maxfactor nail varnishes!  Their just so so cute!!

And last but not least is a Topshop glitter varnish in Beleza, you get so much glitter on your nail without having to add layer after layer, it's perfect over all of these other colours to add a little extra sparkle or simply on its own.

I'm always on the lookout for new colours, if you have any suggestions let me know in the comments!

                                               Topshop - matte nails - candy fox

                                                     Topshop - Heart of Gold

I am loving these two colours together at the moment everything I buy seems to be pink or gold!! 

These nails varnishes are perfect together using the gold as a minimal statement nail colour. And the matte nails vanishes are amazing I have bought so many of them.  I think everyone needs to try them out.  I can't normally pull of a baby pink nail but in matte in makes it so much more grown up, perfect for any occasion.
