Perfectly Polished
September 3rd, 2010
Every once in a while, I’ll create a nail color combination that’s too good not to share. Currently on my fingers: OPI’s “Lincoln Park After Dark” with Deborah Lippmann’s “Ruby Red Slippers.” It’s a bit moody, slightly ominous and morphs from a color that’s black at night to a deep, shimmery red during the day. In other words, the perfect polish for fall.
Your nails look like marbled end-paper! (A covet for any antiquarian book geek.)

I think that the post about wing-tipped eyeliner should be found in the how-to section of this fashion blog.
that color reminds me of the red and black speckled wool in one of Zac Posen’s dresses!

these two look so great together!
love it – manicure monday is back tomorrow on my blog!
Your blog is so great! Loved the tips on how to start one. The nail polish is really cute, wish I could paint my nails! Unfortunately, I have to keep polish remover and cotton balls on hand at all times. It usually takes about 4 or 5 re-dos.

This makes me want 2 things, no 3 things.
1. For it to be halloween NOW! It’s a perfect festive color combo.
2. A cherry coke in my hand – the colors just scream sparkle and fizz to me!
3. To have a cocktail party to go to wearing it – it’s festive but also very classy! Well done girl!
You totally inspired me to try my own version: http://www.debsaidno.com/2010/09/edward-in-the-sun.html

I love these colours together, I have been doing this for about 6 months and I love it. I use Black Cherry Chutney by OPI as the dark colour and a drug store red glitter over the top. I get so many comments when I do my nails like this but I don’t think I can get away doing it for the summer (Im in New Zealand so we are about to have summer).
I had no idea you could mix nail polishes! I tried to look up a tutorial and couldn’t find anything! How did you do it Emily?
