NYC Pink Promenade Re-swatch & abataba Ring

One of my first posts was a swatch of NYC Pink Paradise Creme.  This is definitely one of my favorite polishes.  It's also one of the cheapest and *gasp* oldest.  I'm hoping that Zoya LC is a color match of this lovely polish so I can recycle this most likely not 3 free polish.  I will provide that comparison swatch when my Zoya Earth Day Promo arrives.

I was wearing this beautiful polish on the same day that a SWEET little treat arrived in the mail.  The treat was this beautiful and delicious chocolate bonbon ring from abataba.  It is part of their SWEET collection which features creative, whimsical jewelry.  Here is a picture of my beautiful ring:



My favorite shot is this last one with some delicious German chocolate...yum!  Here are some of my other favorite abataba pieces.

Manicure Monday: NYC Pink Promenade Creme

Here is the first picture of a manicure that I have done!  I'm definitely not a pro at this.  This color has been my "go to" summer color for a while now (actually I don't remember when I got this-gasp!).  I usually sport this color on my toes.  Here she is:
This is ONE coat of polish and without a topcoat.  

Please excuse the poor picture quality & the messy mani, remember I'm a newbie:)

Review:
Application: easy, smooth the polish is on the thicker side, but it is not goopy, sticky, or lumpy.  It was also fast drying.
Opacity: full coverage in one coat but I usually do 2 just for the sake of longer wear.
Color: bright pink almost reddish coral neon cream, would recommend using a basecoat (just in case)
Finish: glossy finish
Durability/Wear: very durable (I go running a lot and it has yet to show wear due to it) and  long lasting. It can last at least 2 weeks on my toes and look brand new!

If you think of a better system or of better qualities to review let me know!  Thanks!
