NOTD: Chic from Ears to Tail and Minnie Style by OPI

When I got the Minnie de Couture collection last spring, it was hard not to miss how the colors screamed "Valentine's Day".  So, when I was trying to decide what to wear this week, Minnie popped back into my consciousness.
Chic from Ears to Tail is what I think of as "Pepto Bismol" pink.  You may be more familiar with it as a bubblegum pink.  There is a very faint silver shimmer in it that is only slightly visible in strong light.  The formula was a bit tempermental with streaking issues, and I needed 3 coats before things evened out.
Minnie Style was the glitter from the Couture de Minnie collection, and it's one of those that works best by putting a blob of polish on your nail and then moving the glitter pieces around.  I've used it for a jelly sandwich before (you can see it here), and I like the mix of white, red, and pink hex glitter.
I can't remember the last time I wore pink polish, so this feels edgy for me.  I like it :-)  Happy Valentines Day, everyone!

  2. Annoying about needing three coats--but I ADORE that pink. I know it's probably not everyone's taste--but I am digging it! And the glitter makes me swoon! YAY! Happy Valentine's Day!

    1. Yeah, one hand has much more glitter on it than the other one does.

    1. Funny how you get used to wearing certain colors, and then something relatively mainstream feels unusual!
