*Butter London press sample
Hi friends!! I've got kind of a short and sweet post for y'all today. Butter London's fall collection has reignited my love affair with OPI's glorious gold topper, OY-Another Polish Joke. Oy looked soooo amazing over the other colors from Euro Centrale and I got all excited about playing with it over Wellies and Cotton Buds. In case it's not completely obvious, I suffered a leeeetle break between the green and the white.... Bonus points if you see which nail, lol.
I adore the edginess of Wellies for fall and the bright green makes the gold of Oy look so soft and subtle. Such a fun duo ♥ I used two coats of Wellies and one of Oy.
How pretty is Oy over white?! I love Cotton Buds immensely, despite the odd, blue-red, veiny thing it does to my skin, but do try not to pay attention to that and instead focus on how gleamy Oy looks over the creamy white. I used two coats of Cotton Buds and one coat of Oy. This duo makes me think of fancy holiday parties and makes me want to hold a glass of bubbly (and possibly drink it, lolol).
Thanks for reading and have a loverly Sunday ♥♥

Very feminine and delicate! White is one of my fav go to colours in the Summer.
ReplyDeleteI jumped on that bandwagon late but I intend to wear it long past Labor Day, lol :)
DeleteFirst of all, I love the title of this post! Okay, I really like these combos! The BL Fall Collection is just so "me" and is one of my favorite fall collections, EVER.. Oy looks great over both, but my favorite is Oy over Wellies. I agree, the edginess is excellent!
ReplyDeleteTee hee, thanks! :) I hope I get to see some of the fall BLs on your blogity-blog sometime soon (specifically Wellies):)
DeleteI love this!! Especially over cotton buds :)
ReplyDeleteI Looooove it over white, too!
DeleteBeautiful idea! Both shades look very nice.
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly :) :)
DeleteGor-ge-oussss! I seriously *LOVE* Oy over Cotton Buds! It looks like a Christmas party! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree! So festive :) It makes me think New Year's. too.
DeleteSuch a pretty combination these both are! Love it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa :) I don't think there's anything Oy doesn't look amazing over.
DeleteI agree - Oy is just a blast to change up my nails with...now that summer is over I am ready to pull it out again and warm up some of my brighter colors I am still wearing because it's over 80 or 90 still for the next 2 mos where I live and sooooo not like fall - no way can I wear fall clothing and not into the fall polish dark shades at all...tho that said I can think Oy would be great over some of the caramel shade polishes I have.
ReplyDeleteOoh, Oy would look fantastic over Zoya Flynn! I feel pretty fortunate; I get to experience all the seasons in some capacity (even if full-on stormy winter only lasts for a week, but honestly, that's a-ok, lol). I could totally deal with two more months of warm, though I do love fall.
DeleteWOW! It looks like it was meant to be over the green. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't that look cool? :) I had a feeling, lol.
DeleteGood eye ;)
DeleteAh, I've got to pull out my bottle of Oy again! It looks so gorgeous over every color I've seen so far. I especially like it over Wellies... the green and gold look like perfection together! :)

You know, I can't tell you how many times I've pulled out my fave Euro Centrale colors just to look at them, lol. I lurve that collection (Oy obvi being a big part of that) And I agree, Oy is so pretty over just about anything :)
DeleteAnother polish for my wishlist, it sure looks amazing over EVERYTHING doesn't it? ;)
ReplyDeleteI think yes ♥ I'll be putting some on the kitchen counter later ;)
DeleteWellies has to be one of the best bLs ever! I love it! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Index?
I totally agree! So edgy yet it's neutral, somehow, too, so very wearable.
Deletep.s. Yes ;)
First of all, I must say that I agree with Clare; the title is awesome!! When I saw it pop up on FB, I was a tad perplexed (thought it had something to do with Fiddler), then I remembered your love affair with Oy, Another Polish Joke! LOVE these combos!!! They're so hmm, 50's glam, maybe? And I especially love your comment up here somewhere about putting some Oy on the kitchen counter later. LOLOL!!
ReplyDeleteHm, I'm gonna guess you broke your pointer nail? But it is BARELY noticeable...I had to look back & forth (like those "what are the 10 differences between these images?" things!) several times! So do I get bonus points?! ;-)
I thought about 'splaining it a little better, obvi decided against that. You have Fiddler-on-the-brain, girlie! '50s glam, that's good! I like it. Totally makes me think of plexiglass (???) countertops, lol. I did something there and I didn't even know it.
DeleteYiss, it is my pointer. Saaaad face. I've always liked that one.
Hehe! "You've got some 'splainin' to do!!" :P I honestly don't know what that's from, but I feel like it's from a movie...
DeleteYes, I will *always* have Fiddler on the brain! Once you spend weeks steeping in it like water around a tea bag, you cannot remove the essence of the tea from the water - I'd like to see you try! Huzzah! ;)
I think the countertops you're referring to are formica. Like this??

So sorry about your favorite, sadly broken nail! Although have you seen my recent posts?! NUBS. That is all. :(
Yeahhh, I was going to catch up on my commenting this morning but hung out with Es and Mel instead, lol.
DeleteI love this and I really think ALL of the nails need to be Oyified! LOL We're just making up words as we go along. LOL
ReplyDeletePretty much! I should go put it in the Urban Dictionary, lolol.
DeleteOy Oy Oy - you were so right back in spring predicting great things for that topper!!! I love it over both but then over Wellies it gives that unexpected Wowzer moment as this would not be a combination that many would try - but your edgy taste and great eye for color intuitively bring forward the most unique combinations!!! So inspiring sis <3
ReplyDeleteYou just say the nicest things, sis :) It's kinda funny, even though Wellies did immediately strike me, I'm surprised at how much fun I'm having wearing it...bonus that Oy looks so darned cool over it.
