Lady Flowers

Teehee.

A little while ago I won a giveaway hosted by Rebecca at Polish Etc.  The prize was two A-England polishes  of my choice - I hadn't tried any before but I had been lusting after some, so I was very excited!  After much deliberation, I chose Lady of the Lake and Saint George.  Today I'm showing you Lady of the Lake, and I shall show you Saint George in another post.


A-England Lady of the Lake is a beautiful purple holographic polish.  It applied beautifully, and was so pretty it distracted me in all my lectures while I was wearing it (although I'll be honest, that's not a difficult task...).  I added some flowers using Barry M Matt White and Lemon Ice Cream.  I was a bit lazy with my flowers - I just painted a star and added a dot, so they're not as good as they could've been.  But the purple's pretty, so I don't care.


Here's a picture in artificial light (my boyfriend told me off for standing on the sofa to get closer to the light...) so you can see the holographic goodness a little better.  Pretty...

So thank you again Rebecca!  Do check out her blog Polish Etc - she's got some beautiful swatches that she's posted recently!
