Hello lovelies,

I got a bit stuck on reviewing the OPI Miss Universe 2013 Collection but it's finally here and I hope you'll enjoy the swatches!

About the collection: All three colours are inspired by the gorgeous, sophisticated women entering the 2013 MISS UNIVERSE® competition, held November 9, 2013. “The colors are very glamorous – ideal for special occasions, a night on the town, or even being named the most beautiful woman in the world!”

I’m Feeling Sashy - medium purple creme. It's a lovely purple creme that reminds me of lilac flowers. It's not completely unique and new shade but since I don't have it in my stash yet it makes a nice addition. It has good formula that applied well and was opaque in two coats. It dried fast and I did apply topcoat.

This Gown Needs a Crown - light silver micro glitter with a satin finish. Now this one is a stunner! I love how sparkly it is and also that is is not that grey silver but it's rather light. Each bottle comes with crown charm accessory.

It applied well but it is less pigmented so I'm wearing two thick coats. Three would be even better. It dried kind of satin and I applied topcoat to make it dry faster and add the gloss.

Miss You-niverse - deep plum purple creme. Another gorgeous purple that I enjoyed wearing. The shade is rather blue-based and very dark, perfect for the winter season. It is well-pigmented and all I needed were two regular coats. I didn't have any problems with application or drying and I'm wearing a topcoat as well.

All in all it's another pretty collection from OPI that I really enjoyed (some nailart is coming soon ;). All three polishes had good formula and dried fast. I like the little crown charm although I don't think I would be wearing it other than for taking pictures.

OPI Miss Universe 2013 Collection should still be available but it's a limited edition. You can still buy it at some of the regular retailers or online on Ebay, at Lena White (UK) or on Amazon.

Hello lovelies,

I don't know if you know it but there is a Lady Gaga Fame perfume promotion running in Walmart and I was asked to write a post and create an inspired manicure. I thought the Fame bottle is a great inspiration so I've agreed :)

The bottle has interesting gold cap reminding me something of off Startrek. The bottle is made out of clear glass but the perfume itself is black so it creates this chic black & gold colour scheme. I went to my local department store to take a picture of the bottle together with my nail design and I couldn't resist to try out the perfume. I was a bit afraid that the black colouring in perfume would stain but it came out completely translucent. The scent is floral with hints of fruit.

I'll be posting this picture on my Instagram account with hashtag #WalmartReachForFame to get a chance to be featured on Walmart's website. You can do the same :)

There' also a promotion running where you can get $2 off of selected Fame perfume sizes. To get your voucher visit Walmart page. Also you'll be able to listen to two exclusive tracks when you purchase Lady Gaga's newest release ARTPOP!

Let's have a closer look at my Lady Gaga Fame inspired manicure...

I really liked how the manicure came out and wore it for the next four days. I've chosen black & gold colours to compliment the perfume and I have used A England Camelot, gold nail foil and water-based topcoat (this was a prototype, unfortunately I don't know where to buy it).

I've prepared a video tutorial as well and I would really appreciate your feedback on it :)

So what do you think of the new Fame perfume? Have you tried it or do you own it already?
