Nails of The Day : Topshop Lead

The last nail polish I bought from the Topshop Autumn/Winter 2010 Heavy Metal collection is Lead. It is a purple and green duo-chrome which is pretty cool, and although I haven't done a great job in capturing the purple here,it is much more pronounced in indirect light. Lead was the only shade I was initially interested in when I saw previews of the collection, and I think a lot of people will like it, but as to why I personally don't - well, it reminds me of the feathered neck area of feral pigeons (rock doves)... and since I really, really, don't like pigeons, I have serious issues wearing this colour on my nails.

Nails of The Day : Topshop Grunge

The second nail polish I purchased from the Autumn/Winter 2010 'Heavy Duty' collection by Topshop is Grunge: an olive/khaki toned antiqued brass/gold shot through with an almost metallic like shimmer (wonderful colour description right?). The shimmer is almost iridescent and very pretty, but it doesn't really come to life unless it is under bright light or flash photography (see the last picture).

Nails of The Day : Topshop Future

Future, a gorgeous navy blue with fine shimmer, is one of three nail polishes from Topshop's Autumn/Winter 2010 'Heavy Duty' collection. It may not seem like the most original of colour perhaps, but I personally don't have anything similar in my collection and so it is a nice little addition for me. I also bought the other two nail polishes from the collection which I will swatch and post over the weekend followed by a collective review of the three nail polishes.
