Kleancolor Golden Nightmare plus layering ideas

Well it's Monday again. When did Monday's start coming so quickly? I think Monday and Friday need to have a talk, and help each other out. Friday is always late, and Monday is always early.

We spent the weekend in Niagara Falls. It's an annual trip we take in memory of an Aunt of a friend of mine. Eight years ago Vicky wanted to go to Vegas, but she was unable to, due to her poor health. So she and a group of her friends and family went to Niagara Falls instead. Vicky passed away that following year, and now every year her friends and family go back to the Falls, for a memorial weekend dubbed Falls-a-Booza. They have picked up new Falls-a-Booza members along the way (us included- this is our 4th year), and occasionally we pick up a random person in the Falls who joins us on our Pub Crawl that year. We hit the Casino on Friday night, and play the Blazing 777's (Vicky's favourite) and on Saturday we start the pub crawl some time after noon, and have one (ok sometimes 2) drinks at each bar on our circuit, usually ending up at the Spicy Olive, and having shawarmas on the walk stumble back to our hotel room.  It's always a good time, with great people, and I think it's fantastic that they honour Vicky in this way. Cheers!

On to today's post- Since I have been on a green kick, I thought I would show you another recent green acquisition. Kleancolor Golden nightmare. It's a dark blackened green base with goulishly green/golden glitters in it, and perfect for this time of year.

Of course I had to try layering something over it because, well why not?

This is Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure over Golden Nightmare.

If you happened to miss out of the limited edition Hidden Treasure, Nubar 2010 is a dupe for it.

 HT is a must have in my collection, as it prettifies just about anything.

Pretty awesome right? It adds to the whole Fall feel with the orange and green flakies. ♥

This is another layering combo idea- Kleancolour chunky holo clover (which is neither chunky nor holo, but whatever)  over Golden nightmare. Again with some green and orange, but glitter this time rather than flakies. This is out side in the full sun, and that really brings out all the colours.

China Glaze Tinsel Town

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend! I was furiously working away at getting all my Girly Bits polishes filled and labeled etc, and also working on creating a page with ordering information. So- take a gander up at the top of my blog and you will see...

**insert drum roll here**

Ta-Dah!!! A page dedicated to ordering info for the Girly Bits first release called Sea's the Day!!

Or access it by clicking here

Yay! I can finally say it is officially available. After much interest was generated from the previews I posted, and many emails asking when they would be available for sale, I can now say they are available and I am taking orders. All the pricing and ordering info is on the page which you can access by clicking the tab above named 'Ordering info for Girly Bits polishes'
I am very excited, and pleased at the response so far. I thank you all for your continued interest and support, and I assure you I will do my very best to fill all orders in a timely fashion. I am-at the moment- a one woman show doing this for the first time so while I don't anticipate any issues, if there are any unexpected delays I will be sure and let you know.

On to today's swatches.
This is China Glaze Tinsel Town. I picked it up a few weeks ago, along with a few other Christmas colors ( I haven't even processed the idea of Halloween yet!) It is a densely packed mix of small and medium silver-grey glitters in a blue tinted base that is for the most part clear, but still tinted blue. It applied well, and reminds me a little of granite. It's sparkly but not over the top in your face blingy. Totally appropriate for the holidays or New Years Eve, but it doesn't scream "oh look, I am a holiday polish!"

Outside, full sun

Inside, no flash. Due to the lighting and the pink walls in my salon, it looks like there are some bald spots, but that is just the reflection of the pink walls on the larger pieces of glitter. It is quite dense. I forget how many layers this is here, sorry. It is for sure not more than three.

Here I layered KleanColor Chunky Holo Fuchsia over it and it turned it a lovely purple.

Thanks for looking!!
