My summer playlist

NOTE-  This will be the last blog post up until I get back from holiday. I don't think I will be able to upload while there but will start posting again once I get back. Normal posts will be up again on the 30th August 


So its that time of year....SUMMER! Finally, and to say the least I am pretty happy about it. I love listening to music so creating a good summer playlist (especially one for my holiday) is vital! I am the first one to admit that my music taste is not great and rather cliche but I don't care! This is some of the music that is going to be on my summer playlist.Enjoy! (please excuse the non existent technical vocab) 

1. Classic- MKTO
I am obsessed with this song! I love the intro and the whole vibe to it! The singer is also brilliant and after listening to the acoustic version you appreciate how good he is at singing! I don't normally like rap but there is not much in it and the guy who raps is really good (not just swearing and talking about sex). This song has already been on repeat for me and it will certainly continue to be!

2. Am i wrong- Nico & Vinz
This song just has such a good feeling to it which I love! I love the singer

3. Budapest- George Ezra
This song is so simple but yet so effective! The simplicity of this song makes it great!

4. Ghost- Ella Henderson
I have always loved Ella Henderson but this song has made me love her more. Great feeling to it!

5. Chandelier- Sia
As I said in my intro to this blog, I love dance! So the music video to this song I loved! Although the dance style is quite odd I still do really like it. But I don't just like it because of the music video. I also really like the song! Sia has such an original voice and has always been one of my favorites!

6. Boom clap- Charli XCX
I think this song is quite original (not heared of similar things). Didn't realise it is part of The fault in our stars playlist but I really like it!! Listened to it a bit to much now though. 
7. Me and my Broken Heart- Rixton
Some may say it's "cringey" but I love it! A feel good tune which makes me happy...not got much else to say...
8.  Wasted- Tiesto
This is a good song! Gets stuck in my head very easily and I love the music video to it!
9. A sky full of stars- Coldplay
Always been quite a big fan of cold play and this song has not let me down! Great singing to a great song!
10. Thinking out loud- Ed Sheeran
I am going to see Ed Sheeran in October and I can't wait!! I know every lyric to this song and I can't help but sing a long! A great song for all occasions!

Current Nail Varnish Colletion

Here is my current nail varnish collection. Like probably every other girl on this planet, I do still have my old (rather crappy) stuff but I wont include that. This is currently what I have but want to get some more! My collection is all quite dark colours and a lot of purple! 
So some lighter colours are in need! Some suggestions would be really good. Enjoy!!


My collection
(In order)

No7 stay perfect nail colour- Metallic Lilac
I have used this so much that the bottle is nearly empty (that is rare for nail varnish)! It is a lovely vibrant colour which lasts for a decent amount of time before becoming chipped. But, my favourite part about this product is the brush! It is amazing! With a big lid which always makes putting nail varnish on easier. The brush is rectangular which makes it easy to apply. Definitely worth buying!


Channel Le Vernis nail colour- 217 Splendeur
My most upmarket nail varnish but my most used! To say the least I love it. It is definitely my favourite out of my little collection. Its very bright so great on the toe nails but I love having it matching on both my hand nails and toe nails. it is also has a long brush which makes it much easier to apply. Although expensive, if you get a nice colour which you like then it is definitely worth the money! 


Revlon professional growth
This again is nearly empty (cry). My nails used to be very short and not strong but after using this a lot my nails are now to long! Its great just by itself but I tend to use it as a bottom coat and then top coat over normal nail varnish. Again, it has a very long brush but it is so empty that even the brush is barely reaching the varnish! Will definitely be repurchasing. 


Rimmel London lasting finish nail varnish- 198 Azure
I love the colour of this and that was what initially drew me to it! The colour may be great but it is a nightmare to get of! It takes a lot of nail varnish remover and tissue. Unfortunately that is a real down side to this product as the colour is great! 


Barry M Limited Edition
Unfortunately this does not seem to have a name but it is a basic sparkly clear polish. I really like this and for the price it is brilliant! I tend to use it as a top coat and just on the ring finger. This is quite an effective look and for going out it adds a bit more glitz (what more could you want?)


17 Lasting fix nail polish- Royal Indigo
This is one of the first nail polishes I ever go and it is still in great condition! I love the colour and is pretty good quality again for the price! What I love about this is you only really need one coat for the colour to stay. The only downside though is that the brush is very small so can sometimes be difficult to apply


Rimmel London 60 second nail polish- 610 Pompous
This is currently the colour I am wearing and I love it! Although similar to the last one, it has a slight sparkle to it which is great for going out and special occasions. It also has a great brush for application and it easy to remove.


Nail Supreme Matt professional nail art kit
I got these a long time ago and at the time i found them expensive, but as I have used them so much! They double up as a normal nail varnish with a brush to having a much thinner tip in which you can draw patterns and designs on your nails! I got lots of use from these from putting dots on my nails to actually drawing things on. some of them are looking a bit worse for wear now though with some of the tips falling of and some of the varnish drying up.
