Today I have a little pretty from The Vault to show you. It's one I got from Japan and absolutely fell in love with: Jill Stuart Midnight Dazzle (#25). It's a purple base with purple and hot pink glitter that's as smooth as glass, and is lightly scented of baby powder and lilacs. Lightly scented, though, not Anna Sui scented, where I get a headache from the overwhelming smell of roses. It's just right (it's Baby Bear's polish of choice!).
Here's two coats with a top coat.
See the reflection of the light off of it? That shows just how smooth it is. Also, check out the ornate bottle - it even has a matching fake gemstone on the top. There is simply nothing I do not love about this one other than if I want her sisters, I have to get them from Japan. I kept sniffing my nails when I wore it!
For the next couple of days, I'll be showing you pictures from The Vault. I'm going downstate to get a new place to live today. There's one I really have my heart set on, so please keep your well-mani'd fingers crossed for me!
This will be the first trip where I have not written a few days' posts in advance and scheduled them to publish, but with The Vault containing a few things you haven't seen yet, I figured there's no reason I can't just write in the morning as usual. My dad gets up as insanely early as I do - I got his crazy morning person genes, but I also have him to thank for my nails and my math genes, so I guess I can't get too resentful! We'll be up having coffee and talking physics, computers, math, and philosophy at this hour in the next few days, so my posts will be a little later than usual. My dad's great - he's the only person I know who enjoys a conversation about such geeky matters as much as I do! He's been a full time artist for the last 20 years, a wood sculptor, and is getting ready for a show right now. I should take a few pics to show you - it's some unbelievably cool stuff. In addition to my giant stash, I have to move a ton of fragile art since I claim a good third of his creations!
Well, I'm chatty and rambling this morning, but that's today's cool polish, the game plan for the rest of the week, and just about all I have for you for now. Until next time, Dear Reader, love and nail polish to you!
