opi "dutch ya just love opi?" + china glaze's "luxe & lush"

everyone's probably already seen swatches of the opi holland collection so i decided to switch it up a bit by layering luxe & lush, from the hunger games collection, over it! i think it looks really pretty. girly but hardcore, 'cause i think l&l looks like shards of glass.

also, this is my first time using my lightbox with my new camera. i'm very pleased! these pictures look quite nice. my boyfriend built it for me :].

ulta haul!!!

my trip to ulta was a rousing success. my mom even bought two of my polishes :3.

from left to right: pedal faster suzi, on stranger tides [on sale for 4.99], ultimate holiday [on sale for 1.99] and ds opulence. i got a rewards card and will DEFINITELY be going back, especially when the hunger games collection is released.

opi holland collection - "i have a herring problem"

i really love all of the polishes in this opi collection, but this one is one of my favorites [along with "dutch ya just love opi?" and "thanks a windmillion"]. i decided to buy this instead of "i don't give a rotterdam!" because i already own "skylar" by zoya, and they're pretty much dupes. anyway, the polish!

the formula was really good and i used three coats, but probably could have gotten away with two. this polish is more of a gray-blue than anything else, but it's got a TON of nice sparkle. it's really beautiful! i bought my bottle from mbeautylounge for  6.75. i think i'll have to place another order from "pedal faster suzi" and "wooden shoe like to know?"
