Essie Fishnet Stockings


My very first Essie! (I've since caved and bought two more.) I got this in a two-pack at my local Ross, along with Berry Hard.

Very pretty, classic cherry red color. I can imagine this being worn by a forties-era movie star. I think the name's cute, too...

Both pics are outdoors, in the shade, the second with flash. (No sun again today.) Two coats plus base and top coats. I think I really should have done three, as in certain lights it looked fantly streaky. Beautiful red shade though, and nice wear - no chips or tip wear on day two, when these pics were taken.

Again, I must apologize for the sloppy paint job (and for pics taken pre-cleanup!). Bad blogger! No OPI for you! It seems that these days I just can't manage to paint my nails without slopping a tidal wave of polish onto my cuticles. In my defense, though, I was trying to polish them with a needy dog climbing on my lap for attention, so I'm kind of surprised I didn't end up getting polish on my elbows, inside my ears, or in my hair...:-P

Needy dog is needy (and a little too close to the camera):
My "baby", Bebe

Just look at those eyes: big limpid pools of "Feeeed meee, plaaay with meee...LOOVE MEEEEE..."

Don't worry, though - the pup got lots of love and cuddling as soon as Mommy's nails were dry!

Have a great weekend!
