Nail Polishes for each Season: A Collection; Winter

So, I decided I'd put together my must have nail polishes/nail polish colours for every season of the year. So you know, I have a massive nail polish collection currently! But, no matter what, you need to have a base coat and a top coat for your nails, it will make it look so much better and I'm pretty sure the base coat like strengthens your nails as well or something, depending what sort you get (:

Winter

So, I'm currently in winter and I'm absolutely loving duochrome's and sparkley nail polishes! They are so pretty, even though the sparkley ones are so hard to get off!

1. A deep red. Being winter, bright colours don't really go well with many skin tones because heaps of people have lost the tan they got over summer, even if your skin doesn't seem to darken, everyone's does. A deep red is so gorgeous on wintery skin, like it's so much better than a normal red because it's more...balanced I guess you would say. My one is by Rimmel, it's one of the Lycra wears and it's called 391 Celebrity Bash.
2. A dark blue. So, any sort of dark blue is great for winter. Like, a royal blue or a navy blue for example. My favourite blue is so dark, it looks black in some lightings, but when it hits any sort of normal light it's a gorgeous shade of a royal blue with these green duochrome's. It's so beautiful! It's by Australis and it's in the colour 62290 Emerald Star.
3. A purple. So, I tend to wear purples more in autumn and winter than any other month, it just seems more natural I guess, not that it is natural by any means. But it just seems to fit better. In all honesty, I adore metallic dark purples. I have absolutely no idea what colour my one is but I know for sure it's by Borghese, not sure if any of you have heard of it buy oh well.
4. A black. No matter what, every girl needs to have at least one black nail polish. It suits almost any season! Like, they look gorgeous with sunkissed skin and just as beautiful with wintery skin. I have two blacks, one's a matte and ones a glossy sort of one, the glossy one is my most reached for out of the two. But seriously, I have such pale skin and it looks gorgeous with it! My number one is by T.B.N and in the colour 930 Black Beauty.
5. A pink. I think almost every girl who owns nail polish has at least one pink. Pinks go with every season, like bright pinks for summer, pastel pinks for winter, deep pinks for autumn and anything for spring. So, a cute pastel pink for winter is a must have! I currently have like 3 different shades that are very similar for winter, and they are all so gorgeous! My favourite is buy Rimmel, one of the Lycra wears and is in the colour 283 Pure Sin. The worst part about it is that it takes forever to dry!

So, I hope this was a little helpful and some sort of guide for your wintery nail polishes, but tomorrow night I'm going to do the Summer nail polishes (:
Also, my next edition in the series will be done on Sunday, I haven't had time recently!
I'll also be doing an 'update' on my life within the next two weeks, so yeah.

Surviving Highschool: Stereotypes/Labels?

So, I decided to start off my series with something that is actually a big issue in high school even if you don't really think it is.

But, this is going to sound like something your mother would say, but when you reach high school, your going to try out different looks/styles - and that's what pretty much everyone does. It's called finding out who you are!

But of course, people are going to judge you about this. Some might even pick on you for it, but don't pay attention to them! So what if you want to wear dark eye makeup and dark clothes? Some people are going to judge you for it, but in all honesty, what you decided to do with yourself on the outside, doesn't define who you are on the inside. Like, maybe you want to dye your hair blonde, get a spray tan and act stupid. That is a stereotype for a blonde, but in all honesty, if that's what you want to do, go do it! You only live one life, so do whatever you want to do!

Anyway, I have changed soo many times and been put into so many different stereotypes and I've been labelled so many different things it's not funny. I'm going to list a few and do a positive take/label of it! (Yes, just like the 'Born This Way' tag on Youtube.

1. Ugly - So, I've been called ugly so many times I'm starting to believe it. But, luckily for me, I have my amazing friends who make sure I don't actually end up believing it completely! I prefer to think of myself as 'unique'. (:
2. Emo - Okay, I went through a phaze 2 years ago and part of last year where I wore alot of black clothing, black makeup and dyed my hair black. I wanted so many piercing as well! But in all honesty, I wasn't emo or 'scene' I was just 'different'.
3. Nerd - So, this is my most current one! I don't mind being known as a 'nerd' because in all honesty, school means alot to me, I want to do well in school and I want to end up with a good career. I do call myself a nerd every now and then like around my friends, but I'm npt really a nerdy nerd, I like to think of myself as 'driven'.

So, I hoped this help and next Sunday or the Sunday after that I am going to do another one but on friendships!

I'm going to start a series!

So, I decided to start a series sort of thing on here. It'll help my posts be more consistent and maybe they might help some people out.
Anyway, I'm going to call it 'Surviving Highschool' it's just going to be a bit of advice on everything! e.g dealing with bullying, friendships, homework!, relationships etc.
I'll make my first post sometime soon, like within the next week or so, and every week on that day, I'll post another one. I hope you all enjoy it and I hope it's helpful!
