In the interest of full disclosure, I had to up the saturation on these images because it was just so darn gloomy here. It must have a glow feature in it. Because it turns out, it gave the whole thing a lovely soft sheen and my skin a rosy glow that it didn’t really have today. Heck. Where’s the saturation filter in real life…?

I love this outfit – blue is definitely your colour! As for your nails, they are putting mine to shame. I better get back on the NoBITE! icky tasting polish bandwagon!
Re: gloomy days, you’re better of doing a curves bump than upping your saturation. It issue is more about exposure in the mid-tones and highlights than it is about colour xx
Thanks Hannah. I do love blue. Mine are actually shorter thanks to a book reading, nail biting incident the other week. They’re making a comeback though. 😉
Great tip. Thanks. I’ll have a look at it next time. But I just cannot resist a bright colour splash on a gloomy day. Haha. Curves you say. Off to investigate.
Hi there – I’ve wandered over from River’s blog and was immediately struck by the blue of your eyes, the blue of the shirt and the scarf – Lovely!
Thanks Kath. Welcome along. I can’t take credit for the eyes, they go way back in my Dad’s family. We pretty much all have them. 😉
Ooo, that bag Melissa… !
I love the jewel blue with that scarf, lovely outfit 🙂 I am going to go paint my nails now.
Love this bag. It squishes SO much stuff into it. Thanks Sarah. My sis chose the scarf and she was absolutely correct, it’s beautiful.
I think blue is definitely your colour!
The nails are looking really good now. I’ve tagged you for a challenge over at my place….
Thanks River! 🙂
Challenge accepted and completed.
You look fab! Ive just bought a long skirt and painted my nails pink for the first time 🙂
Thanks! Oooo, goody. Enjoy yourself. Painting my nails random colours gives me more pleasure than I care to admit these days. Haha.
Loving it, loving the skirt, the colour combo, the nail colour, the hair, the glow, the soft sheen. Looking fab Hun. X
Thanks Trudie. Feeling it too. 🙂
