Hello my dear people! How are you doing? I'm tired as hell but happy! I passed a bitch of an exam today and I'm so relieved! I have a few minutes before I run to my dance classes (after two whole weeks!) so I decided I'll show you another beauty. Well, two of them. This is a mani I wore to my three days of fun times with Tolkien society back in the beginning of March and it was a mani i didn't get sick of, until it chipped off my nails.
Lynnderella Connect the Dots was a wonderful birthday present from my swap buddy. In case any of you still don't know who she is, My Lucid Bubble is her blog and she's awesome. It's a fact, just like gravity.
O.P.I. Suzi Says Feng Shui is probably my favourite O.P.I. to wear. At least ATM and for a few months. I've worn it several times now and that happens so rarely with all my untrieds, it's really saying something. It's a perfect blue for me right now.
So naturally I put them together for a few days away from everything nail polish related. I don't know if it's just me, but I always dread being stuck in a place without anything to change my polish and being so sick of what's on my nails it makes me want to scratch it off. Ever get that feeling? So I always search for something awesome and this certainly was an awesome combination.
When I love a mani as much as I loved this one I always feel I don't do it justice with the photos. Connect the Dots is without a doubt the most unique glitter I've ever seen and wore in my life. It's incredible. The pictures are with two coats of CtD, except on my little finger where there's only one. This is insane. All the different sized glitter, hexs, little stripes ... and the tiniest shimmer, visible to naked eye even if very gently. It's amazing. I loved it so so much. I can't wait to layer it over green, muahaha!
Two pictures of Suzi Says Feng Shui alone
This one is a part of O.P.I. Hong Kong Collection for Spring 2010 and it was a lemming of mine. A smaller one, but still. The big wish from this collection was Jade is the new black, of course. And although I freakishly adore that one too Suzi says Feng Shui kinda stole the crown from it. Blue over green, Ulmiel, really?!?! I actually wouldn't mind having both orange colours from this collection either ... all in all a great one done by O.P.I. This dusty blue is a stunner for sure. I'm not sure about my photos, my camera kills the dustiness a bit and forgive me for the reflection, but it's the most colour accurate I could get them. Two really easy coats, the formula is perfect.
A win win mani for me. I didn't grow tired of it. At all. Thanks, Kris! For both of them, actually! :)
Do you have any Lynnderellas? Do you get the hype around them or are you not as impressed by them? Oh, what's your favourite blue? :)
Thank you for reading!
Jaz ga imam tudi, no v majhni flaški. :) Krasna kombinacija! To je edina Lynnderella lak, ki ga imam, po vsem cirkusu in njenem obnašanju, pa ne želim imeti nobenega več. x)
ReplyDeleteEj, to je šlo pa čisto mimo mene, vem sam da je nekaj blo. Kaj je pa bla sploh fora?
DeleteThat is absolutely gorgeous with the blue!! What an amazing birthday gift! I have a bunch of Lynnderellas, I like them quite a lot but I'm kind of over the hype and more into other indy brands right now. But Connect the Dots is always a classic and I think it is one of her star polishes!
ReplyDeleteI don't own other Lynnderellas, but i like a couple of greens. Still, the price is a bit much for me. And yes, I caught some other awesome indy brands myself. *sigh* People know how to make polish!
DeleteI can say that you unified 2 gorgeous creations - so it looks double gorgeous :) Suzi Says Feng Shui for some reason looks like a boring teal (!) on me, although when I was ordering it I had exactly the colour you are showing in mind. I still love it, and I love this mani of yours! :)
ReplyDeleteActually, I know *exactly* what you mean! The same thing happened to me with p2 Dangerous! I wanted it SO badly and then I put it on ... and it looked boring. Plain. What a bummer!
DeleteMy fave blue right now is Barry M Indigo and Illamasqua Phallic-I could name a few more-I have this Connect the Dots and love it-but hate the drama that surrounds this brand and the inability to buy them.
ReplyDeleteI missed the drama around it, I just know something happened. Now I'm curious. :D Oh, Barry M Indigo is still on my 'to buy' list, yes ... Phallic I finally have, yay!
DeleteI love the two together!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I couldn't resist combining them, even though I planned to do it over green first. :)
Deletefantastična kombinacija, connect the dots je stvarno genijalan lak :-D
ReplyDeleteJeste, I mene je iznenadio. :D
Deletecestitam na polozenom ispitu :) a i suzi i kombinacija predobro igledaju, ovo ne moze dosadit
ReplyDeleteHvala ti! :)
DeleteGorgeous combo! I want this Lynnderella polish so bad but it's sold out. Can't wait until they get it back in stock.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, it was a marvellous gift. I hope you get it, it won't disappoint!
