Bursts of Bokeh Blue

I love alliteration hahah =P. Hey guys! How are you all today? Doing well, I hope! My one year blog anniversary just passed (June 10th to be exact) and I am so excited to have officially made it to this point. My first post ever was so funny now that I've had a chance to look back on it... such a newb I was =P. Time passes by so quickly, huh?? I hope you all have gotten a chance to enter my 300 Follower Giveaway before the deadline on June 19th. Just about a week left until I pick a winner! But let's get on with official business, shall we? Today's mani consisted of three polishes: Revlon First Class (dark blue creme that's a Target exclusive), Winmax #10 (vibrant turquoise glitters), and L'Apogee Turquesa (subtle blue flakies) --all wonderfully sealed with a matte top coat.







 
So many sparkles!

Don't you just love blues?? One of my favorite colors <3. The blurry sparkles from all the glitter and flakies remind me of a bokeh effect commonly seen in photography. It's awesome =D. As you can see from the swatch wheel, First Class is NOT a dupe of the ever-so-popular Nails Inc Baker Street -- it's definitely much darker and has more navy tones in comparison to both Baker Street and Pacific Blue by Sally Hansen. But that's not to say it still isn't super gorgeous! *le sigh* Loves it. Happy (Pink-less) Wednesday and thanks for reading girlies!

  9. Thank you so much everyone!!!

    @The Sneakerette - I haven't seen bokeh in different shapes but I would imagine it'd look beautiful! I have a point and shoot so I can't do much with my camera but I absolutely *love* all the awesome photography that other people do. Such amazing skills!
