NOTD: Orly Lunar Eclipse + Sinful Colors Hottie

So I love nail polish; this love borderlines on obsession, but I figure there are worse vices to have (e.g. I'm not a crackhead). I also love literature. I love it so much I decided to major in English at college, and I've now decided I want to get my PhD and become a professor. The merging of my love for literature and my love for polish led to this blog's name. George Orwell is one of my favorite authors, and Animal Farm is one of my favorite books. I figured what better way to pay homage to my two favorite things in life than by using them both in a nail-polish blog. I intend to use this blog for nail polish, but don't be surprised when literature creeps in. Especially when companies have literary allusions in their polish names (I'm looking at you OPI).

Anyway, this is my current manicure - Orly Lunar Eclipse (from Cosmic FX) and Sinful Colors Hottie. I had Lunar Eclipse on for a day by itself and loved it (electric blue with pink and purple duochrome, sign me up), but like always, I got restless and felt the need to change it. So I did what I always do and slapped on a layer of glitter. And this is the result - little galaxies on my nails!

By the way, I'm aware of the tipwear on my middle nail and glitter on my skin, oops. I didn't realize the glitter was on my skin, but my camera did. :)
