Perceval and Take The Stage Part Deux

So upon further reflection of my previous mani, I decided to try putting Essie's Matte About You over to see if I liked it any more. For me, it is still an "Enh" (my version of 'meh'). Didn't get any compliments for these nails at work :(

I do enjoy Matte About You, it makes manis a lot more interesting. Plus, it adds another day to manicures. Bonuses are always nice!

A England Perceval and OPI Take The Stage

Today I was crazy, dangerous and reckless. I let my five year-old nephew pick my nail polish colours. I asked and he responded "RED AND ORANGE!". What does one do with red and orange I ask you?? A stylized French, of course!

The colours today used were A England's Perceval from their Mythicals collection and OPI Take the Stage from their Burlesque collection. I love love love both these colours. Perceval is such a gorgeous, vibrant red. It almost glows from within with a hint of gold. Take the Stage is a perfect shimmery orange, almost bronze. Put them together... and something happens. I'm not quite sure, but it's something!

No flash - you can sort of see the touch of gold in the Perceval bottle

Although I love the colours separately, but together I'm not feeling it. If I did a solid colour pattern on alternate nails, perhaps, but I am not loving this french tip combo. But my nephew seemed happy with it, so who am I to judge?
