Not everything that glitters is gold, and you know what, not everything that glitters needs to be gold either. Whilst shopping in Bentalls, Kingston last Saturday, I was mesmerised by the Gossip Girl Nails Inc Collection, and I immediately had to get my hands (or fingernails to be more precise) on The Blair Collection.
I'm a big Gossip Girl fan, and Blair is by far my favourite, so the choice was never about the colour, but about the character. And having applied it, I couldn't have chosen better.
The base coat of a dark, forest green (Blair nail colour) is only accentuated by the clear, shimmering glitters of the top coat (Privileged nail colour). Yes, my nail are a little chipped - this was taken after a long day at work.
And on to the tights...
Pattered tights are a big thing at the moment, so I thought I'd try a pair out. I found these in H&M and immediately thought they were perfect ... in a paved driveway sort of way. Not my favourites, but please let me know what you think.
Pink High-waisted skirt: River Island
Black top: Uniqlo
Tights: H&M
Shoes: stolen from my mother
Bag: StylistPick
I also treated myself to a lipstick on Saturday. This is a very special lipstick, because (and now you'll work out how much of a sad geek I really am), it's my 50th Mac Lipstick. For those of you who don't know, I have a lipstick database to keep track of them all.

A glossy, neutral colour with added sparkle, it's the perfect lipstick for this time of year.
