Some unexpected issues needed to be taken care of, and I didn't have time to upload my photos off my camera to show you what I'm wearing today. But fear not. I will not keep this from you for too long! However, today I will show you a mani that I just didn't get the chance to show you yet, and it is from more or less a month ago, before I filed my nails down. So this is Orly Melodious Utopia. Praise the summer!

Melodious Utopia is from Orly's spring 2013 collection - Hope and Freedom. It is a bright yellow polish with tons of glass flakies and some hidden pink shimmer in it. In other words - it is summer in a bottle. The shimmer is not very noticeable, but it's there. Trust me! Application was nice and smooth - considering the fact that it is a yellow polish. It wasn't too streaky and while I needed three coats to get full opacity, I believe that shorter nails will do with two. Well, my nails here are super extremely long..... Drying time was decent and I really think that if you like yellow polishes - you should have this one in your stash.
For the stamping I used Mash plate number 35 and a bunch of Kleancolor Metallic polishes.

Yellow is not my colour, but this one is pastel enough, so I could try it! With some nail art on, of course! :-) I like your stamping, beautiful colours, it reminds me of summer! :-)
this mani is so cheerful!!! Just what I need after 2 months of monotony of ice and rock.. it's so beautiful!!!
