I totally flaked out on getting this post up on time. Womp womp. Even worse, this was my month to choose the color and theme…triple womp. I really have to learn to schedule things better because I keep falling behind on so much stuff. I’ve been trying to swatch the last Zoya collection for like 2 weeks now and something always comes up that derails my plans. I finally got a chance to swatch the whole collection last night while I was watching So You Think You Can Dance. I was really impressed with the whole Michael Jackson theme—did you happen to watch it? Anyway, this month I chose green as my color. I love green nail polish so much! I know I say that about pretty much every color when it comes to nail polish (except maybe orange and gold), but I just love how green nails look…unless they’re green because of fungal growth, but I digress… It was difficult to pick one green polish, so I ended up using two of them, but I did go with my #1 favorite green: Color Club Holiday Splendor.
Holy crap, this is a gorgeous polish. It has such an amazing holo sparkle that gives it incredible depth. I’m completely in love with it! If you want a sheer jelly finish, you can get away with one coat. I prefer to apply two coats so that it’s fully opaque. You should see this baby out in the sun! It sparkles like a mofo. It is a little bit of a pain to remove but totally worth it. I’d also like to mention that it dries to a minor rough finish so load up on your top coat if you want a super smooth finish.
I received some of these decals/nail vinyls from KBShimmer (press sample), and I finally got around to using them. They’re pretty much idiot-proof which is why I was able to use them without much trouble.
This is the first time that I do chevrons like this and I quite enjoy the loo. The pretty creamy green that you see here is nails inc. Queen Victoria Street. I love this green as well!
So what do you think of these dreamy greens? I am super happy with these two gorgeous colors and how they turned out. Don’t forget to check out the other manis presented to you by the other ladies of The Lacquer Ring!

Love the greens!! SO pretty! Don’t you love vinyls? Chevrons were so much harder!! I must admit I have quite the vinyl collection now!! I have stripes, lightening, stars, chevrons, mini chevrons, large chevrons, single chevrons, and right angles.
I think I have a vinyl problem. Which sounds much sexier than it really is!!

Um, LOVE! Why is Holiday Splendor in my untrieds? Hahaha. I want to use it with OCC Chlorophyll to copy a mani I loved on Insta.
Aren’t chevron decals THE BEST? I was excited when they worked when I tried them the first time. I bought the “cloud” ones KB Shimmer put out when I got their anniversary trio.
Funnily enough, I’m deciding between these two manis to wear for next week, lol.
BEST green polish EVER. Love the accented chevron nail
