My favourite nail polishes!

Aqua Glitter (L) & Racing Green (R)
So, i don't have many BarryM nail varnishes because i was put off them a couple of years ago, but i bought these two recently because BarryM had an offer on and honestly, i'm really impressed! They are really hardwearing and the glitter one especially is a really gorgeous colour, perfect for all seasons. I also think that BarryM are really quite reasonably priced for the amount you get and the variations! 

(L-R) Purple-Blue Beetle Juice,  Disco Mix, Gold Finger, Aqua Violet Beetle Juice, Juicy Jules & Utopia.
I think it has to be said that Models Own are my favourite brand of nail varnish, they do some beautiful colours and i love the way they bring out 'collections' such as Beetlejuice collection and Headkandi etc. The formula is really great, they don't chip or bubble perticualry and there hasn't been one that i've been that dissapointed with! Plus i adore the packaging.. aha.

 (L-R) Ink Stain, Uptown, Downtown, Lexington Yellow, Water Street Blue, Lavender Cupcake, Fashion Ave. Fuchsia (not pictured) 
NYC is one of those brands that just isn't mentioned very often and i'm not really sure why! I love every single nail varnish i've ever bought of theirs but i wish there was a bigger selection, i don't feel like they've brought out that many, i have a few more than these and i feel like i've already got most the colours really! I also love the fact they have really cute NYC names!

Hey guys! Sorry i haven't posted in such a long time, i've been a bit ill with a chest infection and i managed to lose my cable for my camera... As of a few weeks from now i will be attending college so i'm hoping to do a college OOTD for you ideally three times a week! I shall be doing some anyway over the next couple of weeks but it's so easy to get lazy when it's the holidays with style etc so i'll try and make more of an effort! Hope you enjoyed my favourite nail polishes, thankyou! Evexo

Style inspirations A/W 12'

Hello one and all, so heres something a little different today, i thought i would do an 'inspirations' post because i'll be honest, i feel like my summer style differs from my winter style. My taste is evolving all the time and now i'm back in England i suddenly had an urge to throw away anything summery and revert back to black, velvet and leather, terrible i know. Autumn/Winter is oddly by far my favourite season for clothing because i just prefer the looks and clothes! Plus you don't have to worry that you look too pale in your Levi's which is a bloody relief. So here are some of the beautiful women that inspire me for A/W.


For those of you who don't know who this amazing girl is, she's Shenae Grimes from 90210 and i think her style is faultless. I've never seen a photo of her and thought 'Shit what is she wearing?!' She's stunning. Her character on 90210 'Annie' also has impeccable taste, as do all the characters, if i could steal the clothes from any show, hands down it would be 90210. I don't own disco pants but i have two pairs of the legging versions which i adore and have not stopped wearing since i got them, i also LOVE cropped jumpers, i have about 5 now and it's August.. but when is the weather ever hotter than jumper weather, really?!

On to the beautiful, British Fearne Cotton, this lady has been my style crush since i was about 8, honestly. I think the way she styles rock chic with a girly edge is entirely inspiring and makes me run to grab my black skinnies. Leather jackets are the one thing i think i will still be wearing well into old age, i think they are timeless and make every outfit so-much-better. It's one of the one things i will wear every single season and will never let me down. Heeled ankle boots are a MUST for my wardrobe in winter, i feel like they make me feel more mature but in a good way. In summer my style is a bit more colourful and a bit younger actually than my winter looks but i feel much more comfortable in my A/W get-up. My best friend has just had her hair done almost exactly like this and i'm SO jealous, i wish i could pull of the Fearne barnett.


And onto one of my hearted women of all time, Mary Kate Olsen. This girl as the wardrobe i could only dream of and more, and the legs also. I have been in love with this picture for about two years, yes it's not current but it's SO fashion forward, which is what i love about MK, she is always ahead of trends and setting them. I chose this photo in particular because this is basically a staple look for me minus the huge gorgeous shoes. I would go for the healed anke boots instead but i must have about 9 plaid shirts by now, they're sort of my obsession, in all shapes and colours, some i like loose like this and others i like fitted but still a good length etc, all vintage too because they really do have the best patterns. Leggings will always be a go to item for me because i really do love comfort, i'm forever in a baggy band tee, leggings of some sort and a leather jacket, it's like my comfort blanket! Tragic, i know.
So! I hope you have found this a little interesting, lots and lots of love Evexo

Here's just a little insight into my make-up, i don't usually do make-up related things but i wanted to show you guys anyway! This is the stuff i wear daily which you see me wearing on all my photos (and a different lip colour sometimes) i also often wear liquid eyeliner but it was hiding when i took these but thats collection 2000 also i think. As you can tell, i like it cheap and cheerful haha. As much as i would love to own MAC products and spend £25 on my foundation my funds sadly do not stretch that far and even when they do i cringe at the idea of spending that much money on make-up! One day maybe! Lots of love evexo
