chanel april (harmonie de printemps )

since i'm in the more "serious phase", i will show you chanel april, from their harmonie de printemps collection for spring 2012, paired with may and june.

i have to say that april is among my favourite "grown up" polishes. i am a fan of everything green, blue, holo and glitter, but even i have it in me to go for more appropriate colours for some special work related situations. i got april solely for these occasions, and it became my go to polish together with another chanel, rose confidentiel.

it is one of those hard to describe beauties. i'm not sure whether to call it a berry red, muted red, reddish plum, so i will go with all of the above. it has amazing formula, i'm sure it suits every skintone and it is one of those polishes every girl has to have.

ysl vert d' orient (summer 2013)

one my favourite polishes is vert d'orient from ysl summer 2013 collection.

i guess i could just write ysl and teal and it would be obvious how much i love this polish. jokes aside, it is gorgeous. the colour itself may not be the most unique in the world, but for some reason it feels like it is. 

i love teal cremes, and this one has an amazing formula and brush, so it is perfect. the teal is leaning a bit more to the green than what my photos show. it it is one of those hard-to-capture shades.

picture polish bridget (opulence)

the time has finally come to share gorgeous picture polish bridget from the opulence collection, launcehd in 2014.

i already showed eyre, pandora,  gala,  chameleon and glitch,  from the collection, so it is about time to bring out the modern part of the sub-colection that was a pride and prejudice/bridget jones-mash up.

the  red scattered holo polishes tend to lean more on the pinkish or burgundy side. this one, with some burned orange undertones, is not that usual. it is a saturated, gorgeous red with an amazing formula.

opi live and let die (skyfall)

skyfall might still be my favourite opi collection, and one of awesome polishes released in it is live and let die. i already wrote about on her majesty secret service, moonraker, you only live twice and tomorrow never dies.

live and let die is a blackened green shade filled with green and gold tiny glass flecks. this shimmer is not too dense, just the right amount.

the formula is awesome as well, it's almost a one-coater. i can't get enough of these shades and i really hope everyone got their bottle of this polish, because it is one of the prettiest shades of this kind.
