While we were in Paris, we spent a healthy chunk of our day exploring the Champs-Elysees in all it's glory. Trust me, you could be there for days.

Well,I am currently having one of those joyous moments. I love knitting. It is complex enough to hold your...
Midnight crawl by Sephora is a gorgeous shimmery irridescent nail polish I picked up in Paris recently, at the irresistible Sephora store on the Champs-Elysees. Unable to resist it's hypnotic charm, I found myself scurrying to the checkout and purchasing this beauty - a steal at just under 5euros. The colour's are gorgeous, changing effortlessly from subtle greens and silvers to luxe lilacs and golds, all with the flick...
