Purple Glittery Goodness
More purple-icious-ness...
I added a glittery accent nail in Barielle Purple Hearts from the Dazzling Diamonds Collection. This purple glitter is just so much fun. I love the different shades, sizes, and shapes of glitter that give this polish its character.
If you think this manicure looks familiar from me, perhaps it's because you remember this one. I recently shared an edition of "Playing with Polish" that featured Purple Hearts over Barielle Soho at Night.
I was wearing Revlon Plum Night, an autumn staple, and it needed an update after a few days. What makes a manicure better when it starts to chip or lose its charm? GLITTERRRRRRRRRRRR

Butter London No More Waity, Katie
Confession: I gravitate toward PURPLE during the autumn. I have no clue why but I JUST realized this while editing photos! So this week I will share some of my recent "purple" manicures:)
The Verdict:
I love the beautiful lavender glitter in the gruple (grey/purple) jelly base. Yes, I really like this combination, I know that some do not like it, so to each their own. I have nothing like this which makes me love it more. It applied flawlessly. I believe that the photo above shows three coats, due to the jelly-like base.
HOWEVER, this polish only lasted 1 day before chipping:-\ I used a base coat and a topcoat that I usually have no issues with. I will definitely give this another go, but I think it's the polish (or the October curse). Sometimes polishes just don't agree with our body chemistry and this might be of those for me. Even so, it just gives me another excuse to change my polish again if it still chips:)
Butter London polishes can be purchased from Ulta or the Butter London website for $14 each.
A couple of months ago, you may have remember the ULTA/Butter London B1G1 sale. I posted my haul and shared that I picked up No More Waity, Katie. I love any nail polish that has my name/nickname/surname in it, so I picked up this baby.

Buddha-Ful Layering
Many of my layering adventures begin with a chipped or worn manicure. This instance was no different. I was wearing a fall staple of mine, Revlon Plum Night. After a couple of days and without time to do a complete change, I opted to add a topper. I ended up picking Barielle Buddha-ful and this was the result...
