Essie Big Spender is a must have to any girls nail polish collection. I got several compliments when all my girlfriends saw me wearing it. I love Essie Big Spender

Butter London--All Hail The Queen. I love this color. You see different colors of shimmer when you look at it. I saw it in the swatches and had to have it.

^^ That's what I was wearing the other day!
Over the weekend I wore Sephora OPI Glee collection Mash-Up, alone and then with zebra stripes:






Now I'm wearing another Butter London colour, No More Waity Kaity

^^ Lou, I didn't have any trouble with the application. I was actually pleasantly surprised that I was able to do it as quickly as I did (I'm guessing 20 minutes tops for the entire job). The key, I think, is to not rush it because it's easy to get wrinkles/folds if you don't carefully stretch and smooth the strip on the nail. Even with my nails at this length I had some overhang but it was really easy just to swipe the included file over the edge and remove it. I use non-acetone polish remover and did find that it took a little elbow grease to remove these, though. I will probably try another pattern soon, but I have so many bottles of polish I'm just trying to keep those in a good rotation as is.

(OT, but *congrats* on your new Specktra status!)

Those deco nails are so cute! I can never handle them myself though... get too annoyed with all the 3D stuff sticking up.

I attempted a free-hand French Mani with silver roses - a little difficult to capture on camera!:

Did Essie Miss Matched with 2 coats of Nubar 2010 on top. The flakies on the subtle color is so pretty!

FYI, I guess since essie is making a packaging change, all the PureBeauty stores near me are unloading the old bottle for a dollar!! They only are doing it on the normal white/nude/pink/berries/red range, but still a great deal to stock up on more traditional colors!
