Morgan Taylor West Coast Cool

Press Sample

So why am I in such a blue mood? Honestly, I've always loved blue just as much as I love purple but they really didn't have blue nail polish when I was a kid. I love how blue looks on nails and it helps that my alma mater's is blue so I justify all my purchases. Today I have Morgan Taylor West Coast Cool, which is a neon electric blue. 

KBShimmer Purr-fectly Paw-some

Nothing To Disclose

I must admit, I fully miss the high point of indie blogging when conventions were something I really looked forward to. Today I have Girly Bits V.I.Polish - PolishCon NYC 2017. This was my first time in New York and I was just in love with the whole thing. This polish is a medium turquoise with some flakies and is a linear holographic.

I really like that I can find ella + mila at my local Target stores and see the polishes up close and personal. Today I have third time's a charm from the birthday collection. This is a dark teal that has a lot of green to it.

Morgan Taylor Varsity Jacket Blues

Press Sample

Morgan Taylor didn't always have the flat paddle brush and today's color, Varsity Jacket Blues, from the Casual Cool 2014 collection, is one with the round brush. I find it so much harder for me personally to apply with a round brush but I make it work. This is a medium light blue that does not have any green tint to it.

ella + mila plead the fifth

Press Sample

Another blue for today - this is more of a robin's egg blue. Today I have ella + mila plead the fifth from the Birthday collection. This definitely leans more green than blue to me especially when I'm looking at everything blue on my desk.

Morgan Taylor Gaston And On And On

Nothing To Disclose
I'm definitely in my blue era and seeing what I love and what needs to go to a new home. Today I have Cupcake Polish Owl Always Love You from the 2016 Fall Fancies collection. This baby blue with a linear holographic finish did not want to come out and play in my lightbox.

Morgan Taylor Making Waves

Press Sample
I've been going through a blue phase with nails. First, it was a red phase, and now it's blue. Today I have Morgan Taylor Making Waves, which is a rich royal blue that dries down matte. This polish came out in 2014 as part of the Island Treasures collection, but I got it as part of a sample pack of polishes from Morgan Taylor in a beautiful acrylic box as a press package. Additionally, Gelish has a color also named Making Waves, but it has a blue shimmer to it and this is a straight creme.
