Spooky Polished Pairings: Holo in triplicate

(All polishes in this post were purchased with my own money.)

Hello!!

What's more awesome than a gorgeous holo? A gorgeous holo that's perfect for Halloween! (Hmmm...this would be the perfect place for a Holo-ween pun...I'll work on it and check back in...) And what's more awesome than that? That same holo paired with not one, not two, but three different Halloween glitters!

Okay, now that I've built it up to a level that I cannot possibly live up to, let's just move on to the polish. I give you the amazing pumpkin-worthy orange holo that is LynBDesigns Am I Ginger?:

This polish slid on to my nails like a silk nightgown sliding over my hips. The formula was perfect, and the coverage was excellent, requiring only two coats for opacity.

This holo needs no accompaniment, but every beautiful girl deserves some extra bling now and then. So, I went on a quest to find the perfect Halloween glitter to pair her with...Let's see how she looks with a coat of Liquid Lacquer Quarter Life Crisis, which is chock-full of purple, teal, and green circle glitters:

Oh yes. Circle glitters in Halloweenish colors...there's just no arguing with that. However, let's see what else we can come up with...How about Lush Lacquer Frankenmama:

The small purple glitters in this really bring out the purple in AIG's holo rainbow...it's like AIG has been turbo-charged somehow. Just gorgeous!

I don't know how we're gonna improve on that, but let's take a shot at a classic orange-and-black type pairing with IBD Party Riot, a topper with large and small black hexes, black bar glitter, and gold hexes:

This is certainly a very typical sort of Halloween look, but will still definitely get you noticed, particularly when the sun hits it. :)

So what do you think? Which pairing is your favorite?

Halloween hugs,
M.
