The Dark Side Has... Unicorns?

Hello, Fireflies!

I have a treat today - it was a treat for me to wear, and I hope it will be a treat for you to see.  Holos from a new Indie - Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer.  If you aren't following Wishes of a Blue-Eyed Girl, I think you should be.  As long as you keep following me, too.  Yeah... yeah!

Blue-Eyed Girl The Dark Side Has Cookies

This is Blue-Eyed Girl The Dark Side Has Cookies, a dove-grey linear holo.  It's pretty sheer, and does remind me of wearing a holo topcoat on its own, but it's not that sheer, and it's a bit more grey.

I love grey and pink together, so I paired it with the soft jelly pink of Essie Shop Till I Drop.  This is a pretty sheer jelly, so I laid it on rather thick for this mani.

I also added some studs I received in my Winstonia July Grab Bag.  Too cute!

Next up, an LE polish that she's no longer selling (sorry!) Elusive Unicorn.

This one is also a little sheer, but the formulas were both so nice, you could probably put on as many coats as you wanted.

I wanted a little more in-your-face pink, so I added a V-gap with LA Girl 3-D Dazzling Pink, a hot pink scattered holo.

V-gaps are pretty easy, and I could have added more definition by adding some black with a striper, or even some dots, but I loved this just as it is.

I don't normally wear tons of pink, but I enjoyed both of these looks a lot!  If you'd like more information about Wishes of a Blue-Eyed Girl, she can be found on Facebook, and her blog.

Are you thinking pink?  Or wishing like a blue-eyed girl?

Thank you for your comments! They mean so much to me, and I read all of them, even if I don't always have a chance to respond.
