Diamond Dust





Sometimes we draw outfit inspiration from unlikely places.  This outfit was inspired by my new nail polish- Today was a Fairytale by Deborah Lippmann.  The sparkly grey-blue polish contains traces of virgin diamond dust which makes it oh so shimmery but oh so pricey.  A friend and I spoiled ourselves and spent Sunday morning eating brunch and nail polish shopping at Holt Renfrew.
I'm wearing a skirt from Gap which I bought on sale for only $13, a pair of turquoise heels that were $5 from Suzy Shier and this BCBCMAXAZRIA structured blazer that I picked up while thrifting in Nova Scotia for only $4!!! My sparkly nails cost more than my outfit but what's a nail polish addict to do?

What item do you splurge on?

    Love your Skirt. My friend had a pet Pig that lived in her house.

    Yeah! I love me a good nailpolish. I've been seeing a lot of them lately with big chunky glittery pieces but I haven't bought any. Nail polish peels right off my nails, anyway. It makes me mad. I painted mine coral last night and it's all gone 12 hours later. Peeled off in the shower. Bah! How much was the nail polish you bought? I'm curious!

    What a steal on those shoes! $5?! That's a price I'd love to pay for all the shoes I like. :) haha

    And er, that must've been one pricey nail polish. It's glam, though.

One of my daily joys is reading the lovely comments you leave. It may take a day or two (or three, depending on how hectic life gets!) but I will stop by your slice of the blogosphere soon! xo Emily
