You have seen this a thousand times over on other nail blogs.
And here it is again. I absolutely love this. It's such a gorgeous polish- tiny blue and gold glitter mixed altogether in clear base- it's pretty awesome. I fell in love with this and am in love with this more than the kind-of-overrated Mad As A Hatter. I never really liked MAAH in the beginning, I thought it was kind of ugly and never understood why so many people are crazy over it. I sold away my mini and for some reason decided to give it another try, so I got my lovely friend in the States- the lovely Gia, who found it to send me one. I can say I don't dislike it now, and am going to give it a few more tries before I decide on whether it's keep or purge!

Past NOTD: China Glaze Broken Hearted + OPI Symphony in Gold

One of my favorite past manicures:


I was so delighted that I managed to find a bottle at Vibe after scouring the internet and drugstore for pink crack after seeing it on Scrangie (of course).
I should try this over grey some time soon! :)

Past NOTD: Spark de Triomphe

I didn't really think I would want any of the Serena Williams duo- that is till I saw pictures of Spark de Triomphe online.. then bam. Another love story begins.

This polish is gorgeous. It's kind of sad to see White Shatter concealing the true beauty of it, the original idea of how the whole look was supposed to be as initiated by OPI.
Obviously I do not want the White Shatter burying its goodness, and neither do I really want it so I sold it away! To another good home where it will be appreciated.

p/s: I used three coats for full coverage.
