All The Sequins

 I'm gonna let that sink in for a bit.

...

I might have bought some sequins. Quite a lot of sequins.

I originally needed some silver sequins for my Christmas show costume, and was having a hard time finding enough of them for a decent price. And then I found six auctions on TradeMe starting at $7 each. And I got all six! In total, there are 2kgs of sequins here (for my non-metric readers, that's like 4.5lbs!)

They're absolutely gorgeous in person, really bright and shimmery. My mother-in-law - who was darling enough to collect them for me as they were in her city - told me over the phone when she'd picked them up that the greens and blues really needed to be made into a mermaid or Rainbow Fish costume, and I do have to agree with her. 

So now I am the proud owner of enough sequins for my Christmas show, as well as an absolute tonne more costumes past that!

NOTD - Jealous, Much?

I just wanted to make a quick NOTD post since I'm currently sporting my favourite spring polish.
I adore the Orly polish range. The colours are vibrant, the formula is second to none, and they aren't too pricey - perfect!
This is Jealous, Much? a beautiful mint green creme polish. It's subtle and sweet yet is a real statement colour too. Looks gorgeous dressed up or down too, so you can wear it to work and out for drinks after!

What's your favourite spring polish? I'd love some recommendations!
