NOTD: Sugary Sweet

My favorite color this year along with aqua/mint green has been this cool, pastel pink along China Glaze Second-Hand Silk. I've frankened this polish past summer using a bottle of white and about 20 drops of medium cool pink. And now China Glaze has come up with Something Sweet, which I adore =) My franken is darker and more vivid, but it's going to be a substitute until I get my hands on Up & Away collection. OPI Hong-Kong Collection has Lucky Lucky Lavender and Pandamonium Pink, it seems polish brands are on the same wavelength with me this year.
Anyway, here is my franken, unfortunately the white was very stark, streaky and altogether not nice, but 3 coats evened everything out.



Showing off my ring =)

  6. I'd wear this franken any day! I really love baby pink polishes and I love that super cute ring too. You tickle the fantasy of little princess in me.

    You also noticed ChG Something Sweet? I'm all about it since I saw swatches and that's the one in the collection that has immediately called me.

    (Do I dream or you have awesome dark, thick and curly hair? <3)

  7. Thanks gildedangel, glad you liked it! It might be a little brighter and edgier than professional irl, but I guess it should be wearable =)
    Thank you Brooke, Kelsealaurel and Danica =) I love the ring, too!
    Catherine, the ring is from a store called Click Six, it's Europe only I guess =/ Let me see if it's still available...
    Thank you, Nathalie =) Yes, I've been dreaming of the Up & Away collection since I saw the promo pics, I want each and every one of them, this is the first time I'm feeling that towards an entire collection! My hair is very tangled in the picture, it's actually wavy, not curly =) But it's dark (chestnut brown) and thick, although the individual strands are thin =) You are so sweet!

  10. Wonderful color! I also love your ring. So simple and cute!And let me tell you one more time: you look like Helena Bonham Carter's daughter. You're gorgeous!

  11. Thank you chocaddict =) This franken was really easy, all you need is white creme polish and a medium creme pink that's not warm... You add drop by drop and shake the bottle until you have the desired color =) If you don't have a cool medium pink, you can use a few drops of light blue or cool purple creme to cool a warm pink down, I guess =)
    PH, just yesterday I was googling OPI's Mod About You, to see how similar it is to Something Sweet =)
    Thank you, Sasha =D You made me blush, Helena Bonham Carter is amazing =) I just wish they straightened her hair for Bellatrix Lestrange, and that she didn't lick random things in the movie to emphasize madness =D (end rant) Thank you for your nice words!
