Heya darlings! How are you doing? I'm staaarving, waiting for the food to cook. I promised I'll show you the Essies I fell in love with this week, and I only have two days of it left, so let's get this show on the road. Bobbing for Baubles is such a wonderful dark blue. It's really dark, but so so beautiful. Mind you, in soft light it will get black, but surprisingly in most light it will keep the dark smokey blue hue, even in the grey morning of Ljubljana's soft light and in the soft yellow artificial light on our office (that is really the best judge for blackened polish). So even if you're like me and are really sick of blackened shades, that are supposed to be a colour but are not, this one get's a thumbs up from me! Very cool for a dark phase, really.
Bobbing for Baubles is, like School of Hard Rocks, a part of the Essie Cocktail Bling collection for Winter 2011 and like School of Hard Rocks it is a two coater with a lovely formula. Very nice application and a really lovely colour that remains blue 99% of time. FTW!
Did you get any colour from Cocktail Bling collection?
Thank you for reading!
hm do I really need this, when I have OPI - Ski till we drop in my stash??
ReplyDeletethis one is so pretty!
Gorgeous polish and great pics
ReplyDeleteDanny, OPI one has a lot more green in it, Bobbing for Baubles has only a tiny drop of teal in it, it's basically blue. Plus, judging from the pictures, BfB is darker than STWD. Still, I personally don't need both even if they're not dupes. :)
ReplyDeleteCali, thank you!
Amazing color!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, I love this colour, I wish I had it <3
ReplyDeletea plavi je ne moze mi se ne svidjat ^_^

Mmmm - it looks lovely. I still don't have anything from this collection, but you never know ... :D
ReplyDeleteThese photos are so pretty of this polish! The color looks amazing on your nails!
ReplyDeleteBecause I set my hopes high on Size Matters and was really disappointed, I planned to stay away from the rest of this collection. But your swatches of Baubles are the nicest I've seen! I may have to reconsider...
ReplyDeleteYou really captured this color perfectly :)
ReplyDeletekrasna boja :-D
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to go on your blog every time you've written a comment, but I kept getting errors. "This blog doesn't exist anymore". But because I keep forgetting, I have kept trying and now it suddenly worked!
ReplyDeleteI love this color; it definitely needs to be in my collection!
Thank you, everyone! :)
ReplyDeleteSophie, strange! I never heard of this problem before. I'm glad it's working now, and thank you for trying! :)
I don't normally go for dark colors, but this is stunning!
ReplyDeleteI like it a lot too. I write a review on my blog.
