When I started developing this rabid addiction to nail polish, there were some brands I was desperate to try. KOH was one of them, even though I had to have it shipped internationally to get it.
This lovely brown is KOH Chocolate Brown. I love the subtle shimmer, which is apparently due to the addition of topaz. It's such a rich polish.
But it's not just the color or shimmer that makes this 'Polish Royalty'. Check out the packaging:
I've never seen polish come with a leather (or faux leather, I'm not sure) and lined snap case, with a little fan for drying your nails. LUX.
Yep, I can't wait until the end of the post for the bottle shots. The fan is too cute, and the embossed polish case is such a nice touch. I even love the shape of the bottle.
So, when I was thinking about nail art, I immediately thought of T-Rex, the King of the Lizards, for this royal-treatment of a polish.
Little, tiny t-rexes.
These gold foil t-rexes are small, but sharp! they're made of gold-colored foil. I bought them from The Sparkly Shop. I think they're totes adorbz. Totes T-rex Adorbz, y'all.
What would you pair a T-rex nail charm with?

I have also had my eyes on KOH polish and can't help but love them just for the packaging... *le sigh*. T-Rex and Kitty are super cute and made me giggle
ReplyDeleteThis polish isn't super-unique, but I had to have a couple of their flakies, and well, there's shipping, so you just get a couple more... Glad I could give you a giggle today!
DeletePretty polish and the packaging... That fan! Squeeee! Love the T-Rex's. :D
ReplyDeleteI know, right? That fan is too precious.
DeleteWhat cute little dinosaurs!
ReplyDeleteAren't they? I swooned.
DeleteThose dinosaurs are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThey were my gateway charm to the Sparkly Shop. Once I saw them, had to have em!
DeleteTotes T Rex Adorbs is right!! That brown is gorgeous too!
ReplyDeletehave you seen that meme with the two T-rexes and it says, "Rowr" means "I love you" in dinosaur. <3 I'm sure they were terrifying in their day, but mini ones are cute.
DeleteOMG those little T-Rex's are so cute. I love this mani!!
ReplyDeleteRowr! Rowr! lol
Deletethe picture of the cat just made my day!
ReplyDeleteIt made me giggle to see it!
DeleteI LOVE the T Rex nail charms!!
ReplyDeleteOf all my nail charms, these are one of my faves. They're so unexpected!
DeleteOk, those charms are freakin adorable!
ReplyDeleteThey took forever to ship from Canada, but the wait was so worth it!
DeleteThe whole darn thing is just too cute! Who ever heard of T-Rex charms, but I love 'em!
ReplyDeleteYou know the person who designed them isn't making millions off them.. but maybe they should be! lol. T-rex charms, TM.
DeleteLove the nail polish and the little dinosaurs are so freaking funny too lol
ReplyDeleteThat little fan is the cutest thing on earth!
ReplyDeleteMakes you want to grab a cocktail and fan yourself with it, maybe don a big sunhat...
Deletethat chocolate brown is gorgeous all on its own... but with the little decals, so cute.
ReplyDeleteI love the shimmer. I have a set of topaz jewelry, and it reminds me of it!
DeleteT-rex dinos are just the cutest! If only dinosaurs didn't become extinct ha?! Mani-wise, I like the color you used for the base.
ReplyDeleteI've seen people put real snakeskin on their nails.. I'm sure if T-rexes were still around, some fool would try to put something of theirs on their nails.. lol!
DeleteThe mani and the fan are totally adorable
ReplyDeleteI love the whole KOH packaging and the polish.
DeleteThose T-Rexes look so cool!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen anything like them!
DeleteThe packaging and the polish are just so pretty. Very luxe looking!
ReplyDeleteIt does make for a very luxe experience for me. I may actually fan my nails with the little fan next time! lol. Or, maybe I'll get my hubby to fan me with a palm frond whilst feeding me grapes... lol
DeleteSuch beautiful color!
ReplyDeleteI do have a soft spot for the much maligned brown polish!
DeleteMy son would love the T-rex and the mani idea :)
ReplyDeleteCool! I hope he likes it!
DeleteThose t-rex foils are amazing, as is that packaging. Very Karl Lagerfeld!
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with Lagerfeld's packaging. I imagine it's pretty luxe, though! Pretty sure I can't afford it, lol.
Deletethe t rex decals are cute!
ReplyDeleteI am so in love with them. :)
