BB Couture Shift Stick + CND Effects Gold Sparkling

One of my BB Couture haul from the ever-fabulous Kim at Overall Beauty.
Gorgeous mustard. I love fugly colours.


I did 2 coats. 3 would be better. But the CND is a super-subtle sparkle. Love it and it did mean I didn't need a 3rd coat but didn't change the overall effect too much. Result.




Stick Shift. Or as I know it - gear stick. Automatic cars feel like such a lazy option (I'm so old-skool) but I did love the one I drove in Canada. So simple. My new car has a 6-speed box though and very good it is too.

Oo, it's dark and there's not a breath of wind. Eerie. Will there be snow? We shall see.

Misa Hot Couture

This is of the colour family known as "fugly".


I LOVE it.
This is Day 3.
3 coats as far as I remember + base + top.
A bit thicker than usual for Misa but not too bad.


I've toyed with getting this for AAAAAAAAAAAGES. And so glad I  finally did.
It was reviewed a couple of times when it came out and nobody went overboard for it. But I've plunged a thousand leagues under the sea for this one.
So I now want Mac In The Buff - despite having said on all the blogs that it was vile. Now I think I'm ready to love fugly.

Do you have any ideas for me in the fugly end of the spectrum. Not yellow. I can make my own c0ck-ups as regards yellows. But do you know of anything like this or the Mac? I must get the new Camel one from China Glaze when it eventually lands on these shores.

OK, 2 questions for you.

1 Have you ever fallen for a colour that you thought was emphatically not YOU? Something you bought because it was on-trend and you thought you should try it just to say you had...
2 Can you recommend any more fuglies to me, please?

Bon weekend
