Seriously, I'm getting fed up with this no sun thing. I used to joke about SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) but I have been so down since I last had sun. I feel like I'm failing you, the reader, since I have all this pretty polish to play with, but then also I miss my own nails being painted!
I was wearing Essence Movie Star for the past few days and then last night I added some other colors on top of it. I might bundle up and take some dreary pictures for a NOTD but until I get some decent weather to swatch it, reviews are a bit on hold. RAWR!
NOTD: 12 Jan 2011

I seriously, seriously, seriously hate grey skies. It makes me so emotionally void. I do have to say, I'm not covered in snow like the East Coast, and it's not flooding here like in California or worse, Australia... But I have so many pretties to play with and I can't show you how awesome they look in the sun. Ugh, sad panda.
I actually did this manicure on Friday (!) but I've loved it so much I've kept it. I used a base coat of OPI Natural Nail Base coat, two coats of OPI's The One That Got Away from the Katy Perry collection for a base with one coat of Nicole by OPI's Count on Me from the Nicole ♥ Walmart collection. It was all topped with Seche Vite and I'm just now showing tipwear today. Since I have no sun (GRR) this is just picture spam overload.
The One That Got Away is a deep berry with some slight golden shimmer and Count on Me is a glimmering lavender sheer with lots of blue duochrome running through it. You an see that when pared together it's a lovely blurple plum. I've loved this manicure and will definitely wear it again!

Zoya & Black Swan
1.11.2011
I really hope to see Black Swan before it goes out of theaters, although I almost think I'd rather be curled up on the couch for this one. I do really like Natalie Portman, and I absolutely love seeing nail polish in movies ... I spotted a bottle of OPI in Easy A! Please enjoy the following press release from Zoya.
(Press Release)– Jan 05, 2011 – Cleveland, OH
(Press Release)– Jan 05, 2011 – Cleveland, OH
Funny how life works out sometimes...
Growing up in the Soviet Union, a little girl named Zoya dreamed of being a ballerina and dancing to Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake. Now, many years later, after a life immersed in music as a classical pianist and becoming a star in world of cosmetics, dreams have come true.
Enter the recent theatrical release of Black Swan. Early on in the film as the lead dancer, Nina (portrayed by Natalie Portman), prepares in her dressing room for a gala where she will be revealed to the masses as the new Swan Queen, a solitary elegant bottle of nail polish briefly takes over the screen. This is where the line between a little girls fantasy and reality blissfully blurs. The bottle shown is Zoya Nail Polish in a delicate shade of pink named Bela.
Zoya Reyzis (founder of Zoya Nail Polish) and the Swan Queen of Swan Lake together at last.
Zoya Nail Polish can be found worldwide at quality salons and spas or online...
Available in Bela and over 300 other long-wearing, beautiful colors, the healthy formula of Zoya Nail Polish is completely free of formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and camphor.
Zoya is the new color of fashion!
