Some Kind Of Wonderful

Behold the lovely heaven of Zoya's Kelly.
The grey is cold, murky, twisted, loch ness-like and full of Sleepy Hollow evil. Chanel's Paradoxal is almost cheerful in comparison. Fall is going to be a Tim Burton fairyland.

Kelly is part of the Zoya Fall collection called Wonderful. Kelly retails solo for $7. The entire Wonderful sampler collection retails for $36. Visit http://www.zoya.com/content/38/category/Zoya.html?brndid=38 to order or for more details.

Gray Nails at Forever 21
I became obsessed with gray nails after seeing a picture of Lauren Conrad from The Hills at some premiere. Her nails were a metallic blue gray with shimmer. I promptly lost my mind. To this day I have not found out any information on her nail polish. In the meantime I have discovered a blue gray polish that will fill in the void. I spotted this shade on a Forever 21 sales clerk. It was chipped and looked a hot mess but I was intrigued with it's slight blue tone. I did not expect much in quality due to it's price and how it wore on the clerk. So it is to my surprise, that I am delivering a gush-filled review. This $3 polish is beyond fabulous. The quality of the pigment and texture is extraordinary. One coat of this polish looks like three. My nail technician tested the polish with and without a base coat. The results were the same. The color payoff can not be beat by any low or high end polish.
The polish formula is slightly thicker than most nail lacquers. However it is not hard to work with. The brush is perfectly designed to cover the entire nail. My nail technician was able to polish in my nails in record time. This polish has survived a solid week with no wear and tear.
The brand is called L.A. Girl Flare.
It retails for $2.80 and there appears to be a variety of shades.

Disclaimer: I purchased this nail polish at Forever 21.
