my NYC nail polish & more giveaway!


well I've finally got round to sharing my giveaway (about time!)

I wanted to organise one when I reached 800 followers (BIG thank you!!) but I decided to wait as I thought it would be nice to buy some things when I was in NYC and make it a bit more special.

I just wanted to do something to thank you for all of your support and for being so damn lovely! every like, retweet and comment on my posts never fails to surprise me and make me smile! the fact that anyone takes the time out to comment or contact me is the most wonderful feeling so thank you all again.. 

so without further ado here's whats included in the giveaway...


you may remember seeing a big apothecary cabinet full of nail polishes on my instagram; well I couldn't resist raiding it to get some bright colours for you! I prefer the American urban outfitters bottle shapes to the ones we have in the UK so I grabbed quite a few! these are bandeau, hot tub & flip flop.


lemon drop is a scented top coat; I've never seen anything like this! it smells of lemon but dries clear like a normal top coat (I thought it was pretty fun!)


I picked these up from kukee when I got home as I wanted to add a few little extra trinkets. a simple double above the knuckle ring and a druzy ring for something a little different. 


I was nearly charged with excess luggage sneaking back bags of American candy! I've always been a bit obsessed with Americana so I've included a selection of some of their well known chocolates and a big new york mug for you too.


some more kukee jewels, this time some pretty necklaces for the spring. 


this glitter polish called lollipop is actually my favourite at the moment! I have one and its a perfect mix of chunky and fine multicoloured glitter! the oyster polish is really gorgeous; you can use it over colours or by itself for a mother of pearl finish. super cute.


well I couldn't not get a NY tee! 

one of my all time favourite summer tees with a pair of denim cut-offs I wanted to bring one back for this giveaway (size medium)


I love American apparel neon polishes; I saw this bright blue and had to have it. definitely a summer colour for statement nails!


well I hope you like what I've included! 

you must be a follower of burkatron on bloglovin' and GFC to enter (since it's a follower thank you!) 

(if you're already following on GFC just write 'following' in the entry box for me to moderate) 

...that's it, easy peasy!

you can also earn extra entries by following me on twitter/facebook and I'll be posting about the winner on them both so stay tuned! (please note it's just the items I've listed below that are included! due to the weight this giveaway is UK entries only this time)

lastly thank you again & GOOD LUCK!

a Rafflecopter giveaway

big love!

  70. Amazing giveaway, there's just so much cool stuff.
    I like the rings best, they are just so cool. And the thing I like to see most in giveaways isn't anything specific, it's more that I like to see things that I would never think to buy myself, those unusual things that someone else picks out for you. I especially love it when it's stuff that someone has tried before and loves so wants to force it upon every person they speak to.
