I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

  1. It's a pretty shade of blue :) I checked the Avons, they're similar to Essie's Mirror Metallics. What's great in metallics - they dry fast.
