Going Green

I'm never the girl with the It bag, or the It shoe, but apparently I'm the girl with the It nail polish. Over the past couple days I've been borderline assaulted with amazed gasps accompanied by some version of the question, "Is that the Chanel polish?" This has happened countless times (two). Luckily, it is not the runway-famous Chanel polish, because that would mean I'd paid a ridiculous sum for green nail polish on eBay. It's sold out, see. This is the must-have in question:



An apparently good approximation, for those interested in such things: Ko's Liberty shade. The polish is too thick and is ultra matte (gross...I added a topcoat because I'm just not edgy enough), but hey, it'll get you pistachio green fingernails. Which is fashionable! Check me out:



You're welcome!

Also see: Essie- Mint Candy Apple and MAC- Peppermint Pattie and OPI has one too, but I can't remember the name...

It kills me that people are paying out the ass for this. I was rocking the MAC stuff all summer.

I never thought I'd ever consider wearing green polish, but it actually looks pretty good!

Very nice! I'm not a green person, meaning I don't own any green clothing. But kudos for trying it out! You're braver than me... :)

Over $100 for nail polish? You've got to be shitting me. I need to meet these ebay bidders, they can't be real.
I was searching for nice jade-green colored nail polish too. I finally resorted to mixing three different shades to get a similar color (it worked, I swear!).
*Julie, I believe the OPI shade you're thinking of is "Get In Lime."
