Day 21 - Photo of the Last Item you Purchased #26DayBloggingChallenge







I got this imPRESS press-on manicure set from Foschini over the weekend for a fancy date night.
I was actually super skeptical about them at first but they have actually seriously surprised me.
They were the perfect fit for my tiny nails and look so real! 
To top it off, they really lasted (the packaging says lasts 1 week)!
I went Ten Pin Bowling with the things on and nailed it (pardon the pun...)
It is now Day 4 and they are in perfect condition.

It is so quick to apply too. 

I matched each nail to my specific size and gently pulled the plastic tab from the back of the nail so that the bottom was sticky.
Then you press the nails down firmly for a few seconds and voila - instant glam nails.



The packaging is super cute as the nails are in a little plastic nail polish bottle. 

You can get these stick-on nails for an absolute bargain of: R149.95 at Foschini, South Africa.
Included in the set are 24 nails covers in 12 sizes, a mini nail file and a little cleaning pad to prep the nails. 

I'm so in love with my nails - I've never really been blessed with pretty hands or nails so I finally feel a bit more feminine now and it is a much cheaper alternative to a pricey manicure at a salon every month!

I cannot fault this product thus far and remain very impressed! From not expecting much at all to being completely pleasantly surprised.

Happy Days.

Me and mum sporting our ultra cool nails (hers are real... pfft. Oooo the envy!)

Shoes of the Month | Turquoise Wedges

I was so excited for March to come around so that I could splurge on another pair of shoes!
For those of you who are new followers to Bohemian Muses (welcome!) and to explain..
I've decided that once a month I am going to treat myself to a pair of shoes!

This is mainly because I only really have one or two pairs that I wear in every day life and can actually walk in without breaking my neck or torturing myself with painful blisters!

I get every last step out of my shoes that I can until they have reached their inevitable end... it is always sad to wave goodbye to a pair of beyond worn down shoes!

So this is my devious plan to never run out of shoes and to extend my shoes lifespan!

This month I decided to go for a pair of wedges.....


Firstly.. what are your overall thoughts on wedges?? 

In your opinion are wedges fashionable? 

I know that some people are completely against them and find them an absolute fashion crime... I did too for a long time but I loved the color of these and after I tried them on I found that they gave me the height but at the same time I was able to walk in them with stumbling too! They make you feel like you're not wearing heels which is fabulous...

Don't you think the turquoise is just divine though!? I admit they aren't the most glam in the world - but for day to day life, why not have a pair like this floating around inside of my closet?!

I got them from a store called Foschini... and the best part about them is yet to come! 

They were a sale item! 

50% off. Perfect!
