Review! Mooncat X Star Wars Collection - Embrace The Dark Side
Hey everyone, this is a special post. Someone mentioned wanting to see more Mooncat posts, so of course I have to oblige. I confess, I am a Mooncat addict! My collection has exploded since I discovered them about two years ago. By the way, this is not a sponsored post. I don't get any kind of commission or kickback at all. I just really adore this brand. It speaks to my gothy/artistic side.
This is also one of my favorite December purchases. I could not contain my excitement when Mooncat revealed their Star Wars limited edition collection. Some polishes are currently sold out, but they will restock at least once, so check back in a few weeks if the one you want is out of stock. I had to buy the whole set. Mooncat really nailed this collab down to the packaging details. As a nail polish addict, this set is very special and so good.
The photos here really don't do it justice. I would suggest heading over to their website to fully experience the collection. This collection is focused on the Dark Side. Mooncat has stated if this collection does well, they would consider making another collection for the Light Side. I really hope they do!
There are seven polishes in this collection and all are magnetic except for one- Star Destroyer. You can of course wear them unmagnetized. Magnetics are a lot of work, but it's so worth the extra time and effort. In case you were wondering, a magnetic wand is included for free with purchase.
I'm still working my way through the Star Wars collection. But so far, loving the three I've tried. I usually change out my manicure once a week, typically on Sundays so I have a fresh manicure for Monday. Mooncat polishes always last a full week for me without any chipping. I also use cuticle oil a couple of times a day and I always wear gloves when doing the dishes. Here are a few more of my favorite Mooncat polishes.
These were my Halloween nails. I was aiming for Dexter's blood spatter. And yes, I did these myself! It took me forever, but I was very pleased with the results.
Lastly, if you're interested I just posted a Strathberry double unboxing and first impressions of the bags on my Youtube Channel. This was one of my last December purchases (I told you I was really bad!) I was curious if they would pass my luxury test. I'll have a full review up next week. That's it for me today. Hope you all have a wonderful start to a brand new week!
Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off - $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe. This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...
So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos. The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...
I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...
Wow I love Root of All Evil so much!! -Janessa
