Sneak preview: Jubilee nail polish from Nails Inc.

January 25th, 2012

You just know that there’s going to be Jubilee and Olympics-inspired beauty booty aplenty over the coming months!

A sucker for all things themed (and sparkly!), I can’t wait for the launch of Nails Inc.’s Jubilee Nail Polish in May …

What do you think, mamas? I love the mix of red, white and blue glitter (and I think American nonstopmamas might be liking it for July 4, too, no?!).

Certainly easier than the flag nail art option, it will be available online at Nails Inc. and at Nails Inc. stockists nationwide from May.

Have a great Wednesday – I’m off to climb a neglected ironing Everest! (Kettle on first!!) …

This new one from Emma Bridgewater caught my eye at the weekend … I ... Read more.
