Facebook is where I found Chelsea of Pretty & Polished. Pretty & Polished was my first indie purchase. And I could not be happier. I have a long wish list for Chelsea's shop but fortunately, she is very popular and her polishes go very fast once she opens the shop. I say this is fortunate because it allowed me to pace myself, which I, and my wallet, appreciate. Last week (just a mere 4 days after ordering) my shipment arrived.
I picked up Valentino, Chelsea Chelsea Bling Bling, and Hello Dolly. Aren't they just perfection in a bottle?
I immediately stripped off my current polish and got to work with Valentino. (This is the one I was most excited about - who doesn't love a black and white glitter?) I wanted it to pop (and I have a penchant for red, black and white - Go Dawgs!) so I chose Essie Long Stemmed Roses as the underwear.
I love the variations in glitter size leaving the nails looking like a splatter effect. I can't wait to try the others and for her shop to open again on Saturday. I have no shame when it comes to stalking Etsy shops :)
If you're new to the nail polish world or if you're looking for ideas, there are some great women out there sharing their gifts and their love of polish. Here are a few blogs I love:
Christina - Let Them Have Polish
Crystal - Crystal's Crazy Combos
Jen - The Polishaholic
Traci - The Trace Face Philes
