January Favourites!

Happy February, everyone!! It's the first weekend of February and that means one thing...SUPERBOWL! Unfortunately, my team lost in the AFC Championship two weeks ago (tear), but I'm still excited for tomorrow. Football plus guacamole, dip, chips, etc? Sign me up! I'm heading over to my friend's house to watch the game tomorrow, and even though we don't get the great commercials here in Canada, it should be a fun time! Do you have any Superbowl plans?

My alma mater University of Toronto after the big snowfall last week! So pretty :)






Anyway, enough about football...here are my January favourites!


Nail Polish 

 

Dollish Polish Expecto Patronum
Nicole by OPI Hit the Lights




With the extreme weather changes from +15 to -27 in January, I thought these two polishes represented the month quite well! Dollish Polish Expecto Patronum was one of the first indie polishes I ever saw, and it still remains one of my favourites. The green glitter in the milky white crelly base gives the polish an icy look that is just so beautiful. On the other end of the spectrum is Nicole by OPI Hit the Lights from the new Selena Gomez collection, a vibrant sunshine yellow. Yellow nail polishes are my favourite, and this one is amazing!

TV Show 


After my confession a couple posts ago about my new obsession, it should come as no surprise that The Vampire Diaries is my new favourite show. Actually, I'm writing this post while watching the first season finale! I think it's becoming time for an intervention, because all I want to do is marathon this show.

Movie 


The Lord of the Rings movies are some of my all-time favourites, so I was insanely excited for The Hobbit to come out. At around three hours long this wasn't a short movie, but I loved every second of it!

Song





Moulin Rouge! is my #1 favourite movie ever, and I recently rediscovered my love for the soundtrack this past week. I listened to it on repeat on my way home from work on Wednesday, much to the judgement of the man beside me to gave me an epic side-eye when Come What May started yet again. Hey, it's his fault for creeping my ipod screen, right? :)

Book



Boundless by Cynthia Hand is the third and last book in the fantastic Unearthly series. This series is one of the best YA series I've ever read, and I had been anxiously waiting for Boundless to come out since last January. I had set impossibly high expectations for this book, and it was just as good as I had hoped. While I wasn't 100% pleased with the ending, I know a lot of fans were and that doesn't detract from the series as a whole. And how gorgeous is that cover?!

What were your favourite things in January?
