Today's theme: Your favorite summer color!
Okay, so this won't shock the people who know me outside of the blogging world, and they shouldn't have to guess what my favorite summer color would be...
Okay, yeah. I just reposted pics from the post from like five minutes ago about me receiving this polish. So what? Well in case you're lazy and don't wanna click over, this is Deborah Lippman's Footloose, three coats with Seche Vite top coat.
Red. Retro, rockabilly, pin-up red to be exact. Last summer I tried, and I mean I really did try to keep up with my Bettie Bangs. I became obsessed with Bettie Page, the queen of pin-ups. It's way too much work, and I spent hours on them trying to make them perfect. I cut them almost everyday, I was way too obsessed! I tried to find the best way to curl them under, with curling irons and flat irons, nothing could keep them going for more than an hour or two (if I stayed indoors)
Woe is me, but I can still make my nails work. This is the base for my MSMD post coming up in a couple of days, so get ready for that!
What is your favorite color to rock in the summer time? To me the summer is the rockabilliest time of year. Basically if you can take your clothes off and wear something retro and cute, and sit on a beach...yeah that's me. That girl just sits inside of me all year long, itching to come out. Sort of.
I only let her after she applies some serious SPF. Cancer ain't cool!
Beautiful red polish!! I Love red!!!! Oh my this look FAB on you!
ReplyDeleteOne of my fave reds is also a DL polish. "It's raining men".
It's close to this one, but I think this one might be a bit more opaque than it is.
Gorgeous!
thanks! I feel like this is such a classic yet edgy red, I love it!
DeleteI'm now addicted to DL, she got me good..
yes! just got this in a swap today and you're soooo right - your photos look so 1950s classic xxx
ReplyDeleteooooh you're gonna have some fun with this one!
DeleteLove the colour! It's amazing. I haven't tried any DL polishes yet but they do look amazing.
ReplyDeletethey are amazing! I personally don't know how long it would take me to shell out the dough for full price DL, but since it was on sale I had to do it. So if you get that chance, i say go for it! even if you do buy it full-price, the colors are awesome, application is a dream, and the brush!! omg..the brush =]
