Loodie in Wonderland

Since glitters are a pain to remove they get a back seat in my world.  Yea that's right I said it.  However, I was in the mood recently and this baby had been laying untouched for a while.

OPI - Absolutely Alice

Can I just say I love this picture.





Why does the skin on my fingers look granny like lol?!

Anyway, blue, silver and gold glitter in a light blue jelly base.

I put on a layer of regular top coat then Seche Vite to smooth it out (for the most part).


Indirect sunlight
OOOoooo

Look.  I love that there is way less gold glitter than anything else, it makes it special.









In the sun you can see the sparkle. :D








At the moment my one hand has long nails, while the other was stricken with shorties


So this is what OPI's Absolutely Alice would look like on long nails ...

... and then short nails.

Kinda neat that I can show you both at the same time :)

I will pretend that I play the guitar if anyone asks lol :D

  6. I actually do keep my violin playing hand short :P

    I see what you mean about the gold! It's there, but it doesn't take over like so many gold sparkles do. This is pretty.

  9. How funny is it that I am reading this post AND watching Alice in Wonderland...ha. Anyway, this color is absolutely gorgeous! I, too, am deeply annoyed with removing shimmer polish but sometimes, a color is to good to pass up

  13. Ok, so you have mismatched nail lengths? What of it? I think it looks kind of cool! One hand is for displaying (a la Vanna White) while the other becomes more utilitarian (ie: nose picking!) lol!! Seriously though, the colour looks fab on you (long & short) and the guitar line had me howling with laughter!
    @Maribeth: GIRLLLLL....what where you thinking?! Go get them back! lol!!

    @The Student's Guide To Nail Polish - aaaahhhh! you play violin?! That is so fancy. You can serenade me anytime :P

    yea the gold just peaks out without over powering the whole deal :)

    @Toyomi - aaaawwww, thank you so much *blushes

    @GothamPolish - dude totally. Then I randomly came across it when it was harder to find and thought why the hell not?! Initially, I thought I would swap it, but then NOPE, ME LIKEY :)

    @Christina - wow soooo coool. I love coincidences!!! Stars aligned, it was meant to be :D

    Totally ... "deeply annoyed" is being nice, but this one is worth it darn it.

    @carissakuo - See! That's exactly why I originally bought it, to swap with the true lovers of this bad boy. Then I got sucked in too :P

    @Silence is Loud - LOL, teee heeee you make me giggle like a school girl. A very OLD one, but still :P

    @Minty - Thanks girly!! :D

    @ommorphiabeautybar.com - So I read your comment while I was at work, and scared my office mate with my horse laugh. OMG I love your options, especially the one of utilitarian nature ;) Hell if I use the Vanna White hand my brain would be bleeding out, LOL :P

  22. Hey Loodie! Thanks for visiting my recipe blog. Yeah I love throwing things together, but I also love love trying out new recipes. I usually follow the book the first time, then make my own changes the second time.
    I LOVE Absolutely Alice. I have it, and I have yet to try it. Sacrilege, I know. I an also not a huge fan of glitters because of the PITA removal even with the foil method. Yeah I am lazy. But AA is pretty amazing. I think I might layer it over black.
    Cheers!

  23. Hi Pam! I like that style of cooking. Like the American Idle judges always say "make it your own" lol

    I feel the same about glitters, but definitely feel this one is worth it! oooo layered over black sounds hot. I'd like to see that!

  24. Highest paying for junk cars. The times once you get disturbed over your recent crushed vehicle ar done. By and by you’ll create Scrap vehicle departure on google and acquire minute statement from varied destinations. However all of those locales offers some money for razed vehicle anyway you need to decide solely the simplest within the market. As they provide basically additional workplaces then others.
