Smitten with Mittens in Daylight :)

As promised, here are the pictures I took this morning of OPI's Smitten with Mittens in the Sunlight.  If you missed last nights post (pictures of it indoors) check out yesterday's post Smitten with Mittens and Memorial Day

Here it is in Bright Sunlight - It's a stunner.  The pictures do not do it justice.


I also took this in a bit more shaded area as I felt that the complexity of this polish really shows better that way.


It's so packed full of goodness :)



HOLLY MOLLY lol This is just to die for! Check out the deep dimensions in this polish. Click the picture to make it larger (you won't be sorry lol). This picture really shows off it's true beauty. 

I hope you enjoyed this and I hope everyone is having a great week.  I'm hoping to post more soon, but Saturday I leave for a week vacation *Happy Dance*.  I'm headed to the Lake of the Ozarks and I'm excited.  I got a beautiful Condo there that I plan on enjoying every bit of it. It also has a giant jet tub and I plan on taking as many bubble baths as I can lol.  Guess I'm going to have to stock up on my LUSH! :)

Be back soon....

Smitten with Mittens and Memorial Day

My Memorial Day was quite hectic.  I went to the Movies and then I had a family gathering (like many of us must have had as well today), so this post is very late :) Better late than never, right?!

I wanted to do something more intricate to honor our brave Heroes for today, but I just didn't get around to it. Time was so limited. To make things easy I figured I would go with a basic red sparkle. I grabbed for Smitten with Mittens.  I totally think this is a gorgeous Polish, it wasn't as bright red as I wanted (more on the deep wine red color in most lightening), but it did the job :) in bright sunlight it does show as very sparkly bright red.


These pictures where taken indoors (as it's dark out already, and best I could do).


I'm not the greatest at applying red polish and this is basically a mess. This is 3 coats with a top coat. I slapped this on as I was running out of the door so it's probably the fastest mani I ever did in my life lol. I was headed out to see Sex in The City 2 (which I LOVED) and I just didn't have enough time for a perfect application.



The color is gorgeous on this one!


The only odd thing about this polish is in the bottle there is a very prominent gold glitter, but on the nail this does not show (at least not indoors out of sunlight).  It looks like a deep red glitter on the nail.


I know I see gold in there - do you? lol :)


Tomorrow when I can be out in bright sunlight, (which I didn't have today), I will take more pictures. I will post those tomorrow and give your the Outdoor sunlight perspective.  Stay tuned :) Hope you all had a great Memorial Day and I send out many prayers and blessings to all our war vets out there.
