Today I have one of my beloved "black-jelly-with-glitter" polishes to show you: KBShimmer Band Geek.
"This polish is an ode to the band geeks of the world. Black jelly base to represent the oboe and clarinet, several sizes of sliver, copper, and gold to capture the flutes, horns, drums, and the rest of the band."

I used to play the trumpet as a teenager, so I guess, I was a band geek, too (there was no school band, though, just the regional youth band, which I really liked, and, sadly, the "Dorfmusik", the local town band (where I had to participate, didn't choose so...), where we played a lot of military marches, humptata, humptata...). And of course we brass guys thought we were better than the woodwinds (and the other way round) ;-)
I layered two coats of band geek over a black creme (a England Camelot) and added one coat of Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food and one coat of OPI RapiDry topcoat.
KBShimmer polishes are sold on their website (US only) and at Harlow & Co.
Ich brauch auch endlich mal einen braunen Topper :) sieht echt toll aus bei dir!
ReplyDeleteVielen lieben Dank <3
DeleteGerade jetzt im Herbst finde ich braun/kupfer/etc. auf den Nägeln besonders toll, schön, dass es dir auch gefällt.
Also wenn das nicht nach Herbst schreit, dann weiß ich auch nicht! ;)
ReplyDeleteIch schreie immer noch nach Sommer, da darf ja wenigstens der Lack nach Herbst schreien ;-)
DeleteBeautiful on you <3! And guess what, now it is upon me to say this still sits in my untried. Oh my our untrieds would form a full blown brass orchestra ;-)! Much to my parents and my music teachers relief, I never felt drawn to Play an instrument - I am remarkably ungifted for this ;-P
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Christine <3
DeleteI think I actually was talented, concerning music. I'm just unbelievably lazy, so I never practiced, and my lips always hurt when I had to rehearse with the band for two hours once a week... :-p
