This is lovely. It immediately reminded me of an OPI from holiday 2008 called Brand New Skates - only this one looks like it is less sheer possibly so needs less coats. I wore Brand New Skates a ton and even went looking on line for a back up bottle. Shades like this are for me, winter neutrals - they go with everything and work for every occasion - and even when you get a little chip while out and about, does not look all that horrible like a cream or a dark does. I don't have any AA polishes - right now ('cause I live in the stixs), cannot recall who sells it - seems to me there is a chain store called American Apparel that in my mind I have filed as something sort of like Urban Outfitterss - which also is a store I never have been into living where I do...I travel for medical all too often...but usually limited to the immediate area if am an outpatient and dead tired after a day of medical apps and not up to looking for the nearest mall...a kid like me in a mall ... I am goners for a good 10 hrs just looking at all the stores I never get to see. Ok - ya won me over...I am going on line to see who sells AA and if indeed it is a chain store like UO is. This shade is a keeper by the way - I really think it looks nice - you will get miles of use out of it and it will work for years to come - rare to find a good one like this that has the right finish and is not going to be all brushstroky.
I love the purple-y shimmer in this. It's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteMe too!!! :)
