Darling Diva: Will O The Wisp

Long time no post.

Life got in the way of the internets!
We had ERO at school (education review) and we've had interviews. The last 9 weeks of term were a series of testing, marking, re-testing, paper work, preparation for ERO...oh and of course teaching!

Unfortunately that meat my poor blog suffered.

Thankfully we're on holiday now. Next term will be a crazy term of madness (more testing, outdoor week, end of year reporting and of course Christmas), but I do have a nice stash of photos ready to go, so here's hoping for consistent posting!

Anyway, on to polish!

I'm in love with Darling Diva Polishes. Every time there's a sale I pick up a couple that I'm drooling over and grab myself a lucky dip bag.

Last sale I was seriously drooling over Will O the Wisp...and not just for the name!
Look at this delicious blend of pink and silver glitters...

And it's glow in the dark!

I used three coats and was incredibly happy with the results.
Perfect princess pink ails...for Halloween...Yes I want to be a Princess.

Darling Diva: The Hot Chick

Every so often you come across an amazing polish, that inspires you...and a manicure masterpiece is born.

That is what happened to me recently...

I was sitting at home (drinking) wearing khaki jeans, a cream blouse and a rose cardigan.
I had just painted my nails in Dollish Polish Zombie Flesh. As my nails were drying, and I'd finished my drink, I thought I'd go check the mail box. 

I didn't have high expectations of my mail box expedition... But zomg, there in the mail box was my Darling Diva order.i raced back inside, poured another drink, checked my polish was dry, and tore into my parcel. I was super excited. Then I saw it...
The gorgeous pink neon glitter topper I'd ordered, The Hot Chick.
She was even more beautiful than I'd imagined. Various sizes of neon pink glitter and iridescent glitters, suspended perfectly in a clear base...

Maybe it was the shot of jäger I decided to do... Maybe it was the polish gods guiding me... But I felt a sudden inspiration to apply The Hot Chick to my mani of Zombie Flesh...

I created a masterpiece. 



Dollish Polish Zombie Flesh topped with one coat of Darling Diva The Hot Chick
Zombie Flesh was the perfect base to accentuate the neon pink glitters and let the iridescent glitters shine. 

As you can tell I was completely in love with this mani, even when I sobered up the next day.

I wore these stunning polishes to the Cosi Club quiz night with Nicks sister, our 7 year old nephew and Nick. There were 15 teams...and we came second! 
We were winning right up until the last round... Sports. Not our specialty? 

So not only were they gorgeous nails, but lucky nails as well.
