H&M Cool Summer

Oh, you know I can't resist the Hello Kitty bottles from H&M. I had to pick up the latest one of interest, of course. This one is still in stores here in Sweden. Well, if it didn't sell out everywhere during the day.

Look, she's even doing the sign for victory! The fact that it is often misinterpreted as meaning peace isn't going to be more than a paranthesis in this post. (And yes, I admit, I have socks from the same collection... Ehrm...)

First, look at what shows through the bottle glass...

H&M aren't too generous with the glitters these days, so suck it up while you can!




Cool Summer. Photos do not do this polish justice. I was in fear that it would turn out horrific, as glitter in shimmer bases aren't necessarily the best ones, but it all turned out to awesomeness. The shimmer is of the very fine sheen like type, and is really magenta- but you know how most cameras feel about magenta, right? Still, this magenta shimmer gives the polish that electric look. The glitter is larger pink flecks, and smaller blue and silver ones. All in a not too blue toned base.

This polish was, like it seems most H&M limited edition polishes are, made in Turkey. A while ago I posted about two sets of minis, one of them contained a shimmery purple. Well, I wouldn't be suprised if this is actually the very same base with a bunch of litter just thrown in as extra. Doesn't really matter, I like it anyway.

Emybloom is also wearing this one today. Go check her out!

Now I just wish the name of this polish was true. At least part of the day. But Sweden is still having the heatwave it seems most of the northern hemisphere does. Today is a tad cooler at just above 30°C, or 88°F, but it's been up almost to 100°F in some places, and even though Sweden is a lot hotter in the summer than many foreigners believe, it is now hotter than usual. Keep in mind that many Swedes are pale by nature and not really used to this climate with tropical (yes!) heat.

Swedish word of the day:
sval -adjective cool
Because I want to be.
