LOVING MY MINX MANICURE

I’ve pretty much been obsessed with Minx since I clocked Samantha rocking liquid gold nails in Sex & the City 2. Since then I’ve tried every metallic nail polish going in an effort to get that same mirror effect but nothing even comes close *sigh*.

Then a couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to finally try it out for an article I’m working on and Oh. My. God…It’s AMAZEBALLS! People are stopping me in the street to ask about my nails. They’re massively babeish, especially when worn with fist-fulls of silver rings.

I never want to see my normal nails again. Ever.

BTW – if you fancy trying it for yourself head to Groom in Selfridges. It’ll set you back £45 but is well worth it for special occasions or whatevs.

LABEL LOVE: GRYPHON

My shopping habits have really changed lately – I think I finally get the concept of quality over quantity, which means less Topshop & ASOS (as much as I love them) and more smart buys from Outnet and the Net-a-Porter sale.

My latest fixation? New York-based label Gryphon. Set up by a former Vogue writer Aimee Cho, these quirky pieces are really striking a chord with me – hence, two purchases in the last month! Yes, I will be surviving on baked beans and toast for the rest of August…

*UPDATE

The skirt arrived!
