Queen Victoria Street

I'm back with a new nail offering- Nails Inc, Queen Victoria Street. 

It's the first time I've tried a Nails Inc polish and I really can't make my mind up about this shade. 99% of the time it looks like quite a dark green, and I can't decide if I like it or not. However, in some light it looks more blue than green, and on camera it looks surprisingly turquoise. 

Aside from colour, I really like the formula of this polish. I've been wearing it for about a week now, and I am wearing a top coat, but my nails haven't chipped. The only thing I'm not so sure about, however, is the lid. (This is me being really fussy now) but I feel like the top is quite hard to work with because it's so large. 

Have you ever tried a Nails Inc polish, and what do you think about a green nail polish? I'm still undecided on this one...

Insta lately

I decided it was time to share some of my instagram pics with you all. Instagram is something I check pretty much religiously every morning and I love sharing little bits on there too. Leave your usernames in the comments and I'll go on over to your pages too!

Scrap Bookin' #4

Yep, I've been saving up those magazines and have given my scrap book an overhaul. I took these photos and then noticed an underlying theme of preppy, simple pieces, and a bare face.

This past week has been non-stop and I can't see it getting much better for a few weeks, so I'm so, so sorry about irregular posting. The plan is to upload my September Favourites this weekend. I had hoped to have a go at filming a video because I think it would be tonnes easier to do my favourites this way, but the whole filming and editing process is pretty long and I'm worried I wouldn't have time to do a good job on it. So maybe next month?

Thank you all so much for putting up with the infrequent posts, but I hope you all still enjoy seeing what I post. I would rather do this than be churning out short posts with awful content! I'm always interested to see what you all like reading, so let me know if there are things you would like to see on Total Modisch!

Lately...

I bought this bag at the weekend after my old faithful, goes-with-everything bag broke. I went off to the shops and found this cute satchel for a bargain of £9! (Primark, I heart u x) 

This week has been manic and it's all felt non-stop. I ran my first ever art club with the year 7's and they're so cute! That as well as having a driving lesson where I did some new manoeuvres means that this week has been exciting, guys. Yesterday I hot-footed it up to Newcastle for the uni open day and loved it. Watch this space, there is a chance (however small) that I'll be a northern gal this time next year. 

Everything's been a bit strange at my house recently. It's so quiet because my brother George has moved to university. I mean, it's not like he was a loud person, but it does feel really strange without him. We ring most nights though, and I have to say some of the photos uploaded to Facebook from Fresher's Week have really made me see my brother in a different light, we shall say. Has anyone else had the experience of having an older sibling moving away? I would love to know what your experience was- George is pretty far away so I won't see him very often. Thank God we have the interwebs to keep in touch. 

One last thing- I know I should be saving this for the monthly favourites, but here's a song I can't stop listening to...
