A Wilder Shade of Nail

Revlon Red

This is my absolute favourite classic vamp red.

It should be worm to a cocktail party with a long black gown, as styled below.

They All Hate Us has been giving me some amazing dark nail inspiration lately. Such a good winter look, don't you think?

OPI Bubble Bath

Another one that was hard to photograph This is a sheer, very pale pink I'm not that impressed with it to be honest ~ two coats with base & top coat & it is still streaky. I'm not into polishes that require more than two coats.

Nevertheless, this should be worn ~ of course ~ while taking a bubble bath. Preferably in a pink tub, & bonus points if there are flamingoes on the wall.

While in the tub you will talk to your best friend on a phone that looks like this...

...conversation will revolve mostly around your respective crushes, but will also include some career advice.

Revlon Lavendar Light

This was incredibly hard to photograph as it is a sheer iridescent polish.

This should be worn on a movie style shopping trip. You know the kind ~ where you end up with arms full of bags of fantastic new purchases, only stopping for a champagne lunch in a swanky restaurant.

Revlon Street Wear in Goldmine

This is one of my all time favourite polishes. It's not gold, it's not blue, it's not purple ~ it's Goldmine.

This polish should be worn to a disco, with a skin tight shiny black jumpsuit & a giant black afro sprinkled with gold glitter.

Today I'm wearing Maybelline Express Finish in Berry Boucle.

Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a pic of this before it started to chip.

I imagine this shade should be worn with a pretty floral dress and white lace fingerless gloves to a picnic at a rose garden, with a soundtrack of Ragamuffin Children, Rosy Tin Teacaddy & Ella Fitzgerald. There would also be the feeding of ducks at this picnic.

I have a not so secret obsession with nail polish. I even paint nails occassionally at a monthly market stall. Here's what I'm wearing today:

That's Revlon's Amethyst Smoke. Pretty. And after 4 days it is only just barely starting to chip. That's a miracle for me. Usually my nails look a mess the day after a manicure.
