Crumpet's Stash Part 8 - Lilac

Hi Goddesses

For most people, lilac wouldn't merit a box of its own, but for me, lilac is one of my very favourite nail colours, especially when it's that smoky greyish toned lilac.



I find lilac an incredibly soothing polish colour.  Wearing lilac seems to instantly make me feel calmer.


Some of my very favourite polishes are in this box - enjoy xx

Crumpet's Stash - The Holos !! Red, Orange and Pink

Hi Goddesses

Crumpet's Stash is back today with a huge box of happiness.  I can no longer fit all my holos in one box, so today we see one portion of them, the reds, the pinks and the oranges.


I have to say, this box always makes me happy.  If I had to wear only THESE polishes for the rest of my life, I'd be more than ok with that!  Enjoy xx

Crumpets Stash part 6 - The KIKOs

Hi Goddesses

Today’s stash post takes a slightly different direction.

I’ve mentioned in some of the intros that some polishes have their own accommodation and live separate to the general polish population.  My KIKOs are one of those sets of polishes – I think because I bought so many and they make such great undies.  I like to look at them like the pretty rainbow they are :)

KIKO is a fabulous brand, and if you haven’t come across them yet, I really do suggest you try them out – good price, great quality, lovely rainbow of colours.

Crumpet's Stash pt5 - The Pinks (and 3 yellows)

Hi Goddesses

I hope you're continuing to enjoy the Stash series.

Today I have the pinks for you.  I've become very obsessed with pinks in the last year, and there's probably more dupage in this box than anywhere else - prepare for some agonising destashing in the video!







Because I don't own very many, the yellows shack up in this box too.


Enjoy! xx

Crumpet's Stash part4 - The Reds

Hi Goddesses

Welcome to the red part of my stash :)

For such a limited colour, I sure do have a lot lol.  Think about it.  A pastel red?  That's a pink.  A bluey red?  That's a purple.   A bright or neon red - that could be an orange.   So the number of options available for reds is actually quite narrow.


That said, I have tried and tried to reduce these to a less ridiculous number many times, and I just can't.   My soul may be purple, but in my heart, I'm red.

Crumpet's Stash pt 3 - The Blues

Hi Goddesses

Today we get to sing the blues as we rifle through my blue stash.

I have a lot of blues, but there will be some famous ones you don't see - Nails Inc Baker St for example, or Zoya Charla.  This is because I found other dupes for them.   There's a lot of duping in BlueLand.


The video is in 2 parts because there are so many lol - enjoy xx and don't forget to let me know in the comments which blues you love and whether any have hopped onto your lemming list :)

Crumpet's Stash pt2 - Greeeeeeen

Hi Goddesses

I hope you enjoyed last week's video on All The Oranges (well, the ones that weren't hiding lol).

Today we focus on the greens.  As you know, I am not a green lover, but it is an essential for nail art, so as you'll hear, most of them exist for that reason.





I'd love to know how my green stash compares to yours - let me know in the comments!

Crumpet's Stash pt1 - Orange

Hi Goddesses

Today is a very exciting day as we kick off Crumpet's Stash!!  I am often asked for stash posts, and the reason I have resisted is because, well, they're a bit of a ballache!  Basically, you have to sit and take loads of photos, edit and watermark them, then write a blog post where you also remember every polish name.  Verrrrrrrry intensive.

So, I decided to do a video (where I also say "so" ... a LOT).  I thought it might be a bit more interactive and therefore more fun.




So in the vid you saw a fly and ALL my oranges except  those that live -
* in the untrieds
* in the Barry M box
* in the KIKO box
* in the holo box
* in the textures box 
* in the neon box


To end the post, I just want to show you some of the oranges you DIDN'T see, but which you will see when we get to other boxes (I hope).


Firstly, Charge It In Milan - spectacular shimmer.  I am hoping I just "misfiled" this one!

Barry M Block Orange, the first orange I loved.

OPI A Roll In the Hague - this lives in the neon box cos it's ORANGE!

Zoya Dhara, which I only wore this week, but which is a bit too WAH! for me.   And Literary Lacquers More Like Fire Than Light.

There's also a very special orange by Loaded Lacquer which I wore last and will be having a party-post of it's own soon :)


I hoped you enjoyed this post as much as I did - let me know your thoughts in the comments!   Did you see stuff you didn't have, or did you see I lacked some essential oranges?
