I'm baaaaaaaaack! (Back again, Jana's back, tell a friend. Guess who's back dun nun na) I've got roughly 300 things to show you all and today I was sitting here trying to figure out where to start and eventually I just decided to go big. Let's just put a handful of pictures up and drool for a while, shall we?
Warning: This post is wicked picture heavy. I needed every one of these pictures to try and show the gorgeous-ness that is this polish. (Yes, I said wicked. I just watched the movie Fever Pitch so I feel very Boston-y right now.) I'm not putting them under a cut either...I won't hide it from the world!
Misa - Emboridered Emerald. What can I say about it? I love this polish, I love the name... everything is perfect about it.

My hand is at a funny angle here so I could try to show you what the base color of Embroidered Emerald is. It's a raisin-y kind of purple if that makes sense. Very pretty, dark without being too dark and you know how I love me some purple.
Now with Embroidered Emerald, you get a serious multi-chrome thing happening. There are 3 or 4 different colors of shimmer that will pop out depending on the angle of you hand and lighting. Wearing this polish can be hazardous to any type of productivity, beware :)
So here you can see the subtle gold shimmer on my nails and you can see the green in the bottle
Here you can see the blue shimmer
And the green shimmer (mixed with some blue)
There also is this green-ish gold shimmer that comes out in certain lights.
Have I saturated you with pictures yet? Well, let me gush some more. The formula on Embroidered Emerald is pretty solid. Misa doesn't disappoint formula-wise even with the older polishes. I have either 3 coats or 4 thin coats on in these pictures (sorry I don't remember for sure but I'd guess for 4 thin coats if I had to pick.) This baby came out in Fall 2006 (I believe) and has become pretty tough to find by now. I was lucky enough to get my hands on it last year which made me sooo happy since I had been lusting after it for a long time.
Can we talk about the name for a second...Embroidered Emerald. This is the kind of name nail polish should have; not suzi this or that or something generic like "green." Perfect name for the color.
How about one more picture for the road? :)
What do you think of Embroidered Emerald?
