ChinaGlaze Sidney Sands. I’m so sad it’s discontinued, it’s such a beautiful neutral! I start my new job tomorrow so I’m trying to stock up on Neutral polishes for the office.

I am wearing OPI “Bubble Bath”, a pale sheer baby pink that’s perfectly subtle enough to still show the whites of my nails but keep the pinks of my nails perfectly pink. The result is a really subtle, pretty French manicure look.

On my toes, I’m wearing Sephora by OPI’s Iris I was Thinner w/ It’s Bouquet with Me on top. Iris is a really pretty shade of purple and It’s Bouquet is a clear polish w/ lots of purple & silver glitter. So pretty!

Oh..my nails look downright pathetic right now. My nail polish is chipped which ever and my picky nail is a different color from the rest, ha! I’m wearing a clear nail polish with silver glittery chunks, which looks more silver than clear. On my picky is a hot pink /neon pink number.

An old (like 7 years) sparkly OPI shade that I love — totally neutral but full of microglitter and a very slight opalescence. Would have to look at the bottle to remember the name. It’s hella-old and should probably be thrown out, but I can’t bear to part with it.

I’m wearing L’oreal’s nail polish in sand castle! I just trimmed my nails down because during finals week at college I didn’t take good care of them and the got all broken and peely, so for the time being I’m sticking to neautral colors until they grow longer again.

On my toes, I’m wearing China Glaze’s Sass in a Glass with OPI’s Curry Up Don’t Be Late as a “gold, rusty” decoration (idea: PurseBuzz.com). And I’m not wearing anything on my fingernails yet… I just took the polish off to put something new on =]

Icing’s Wedding something. it’s a semi sheer silvery white with foil shimmer flakes looking thing. it’s surprisingly pretty on my NC25 hands (light colors usually don’t suit me). 2 coats still have a bit of VNL BUT it’s one of those VNL where it actually looks good. sort of like a very toned down french mani or something lol
