Red Dog Designs Mele Kalikimaka - Swatches and Review

Happy Hump Day everyone! I hope your week is going well so far. I have a gorgeous glitter to show you today!

Red Dog Designs Mele Kalikimaka is such a gorgeous combination of colors - I rarely fall in love with a glitter but I did fall in love with this one! The way the mix of colors and sizes blend together is really unique and special.

I chose what I thought might be a good combo, even though it isn't one you would normally think of, and I ended up loving the way the colors of glitter popped over the dirty green (Dior Amazonia). The formula and application were amazing - I only used one coat in the photos. I know this is technically a Christmas polish but I will be wearing it all year! I used one coat of Poshe to top it off with.

Favorites of 2012 - Part 2 - Indies

Happy New Year's Eve! I have another favorites post for you - this time for my favorite indies of the year! The indie industry has exploded this year and it was so hard to narrow down this list. I attempted to keep it at 12 but that was impossible. I am actually not sure how many I ended up with. LOL! Let's just drool over the lovely pics.

*While I have worn all of my favorites, I haven't had time to post all of them here. Because of this, I have borrowed some photos from the lovely Sheila at Pointless Cafe.

Dandy Nails Cashmere Night - this lovely purple matte with shimmer and micro-flakes is one that captured my heart the instant I put it on.

Ninja Polish Alexandrite - I actually did an amazing mani with this one that had snowflake stamping on top - but I didn't get a chance to take photos of it. Luckily, Sheila's pics show it off amazingly.
