Butter London Posh Bird

A few days ago I called C from work to see what was doin'.  He told me I got a package from Butter London.  There was no reason in the world why I should be getting a package from them, so I asked/told him to go open it.  When he told me what was inside, it all made sense.  My bbff Essie had sent me a present. ♥
This is the coolly elegant Posh Bird.


 
Posh Bird is a purpley taupe jam-packed with silver shimmer, one of those that looks absolutely magical as you're putting it on your nails.  This color is amazing and I love it.  It's like the polish version of  my favorite eyeshadow, but shimmery.  The formula's near perfect in two coats (one coat is super saturated but will leave bald spots if you go over it more than once).  I can't think of a thing this polish wouldn't look beautiful with.  It was originally released last fall during New York Fashion Week and remains on Butter London's website as a US exclusive.

Once more... Thank you SO SO MUCH, Essie, I absolutely love my new polish and I think it might be a new favorite.  You rock.

And to y'all, thanks for reading!  Have a great weekend.

  2. Hi Liesl, ohhh what a beautiful surprise!!! This polish is absolutely awesome. I have seen it a couple of times and was never thrilled by the look in the bottle but whoa I was as wrong as I could be!! Luckily Pshiiit Boutique offers this polish as well for European customers ;-)!!! It looks perfect on you :-)

    1. I agree, the bottle photos didn't thrill me, but irl even that is spectacular. Mine came to me with a silver streak running through it, and when I put it on, I was all, "Ooooh!!" Out loud, lolol. ;)

    1. I bet you're right! The trick would be not picking the studs off, lol. ;p
