Several weeks ago I mentioned a special on selected Deborah Lippmann polishes. That was when 'Across The Universe' caught my attention. Sadly the offer was only for U.S residents (still sad about that) so I didn't get the polish but shortly after that a parcel arrived for me. What was in it....? This gorgeous nail polish!
I used it on my toes right away but since photoing your feet doesn't seem the done thing in blog land I decided to wait to show you it until I used it on my fingers instead.

| Deborah Lippmann - 'Across The Universe' |
I think it's gorgeous! It's a navy blue base crammed full of fine blue glitter and large hexagonal green and blue glitters. I used three coats (two was a tiny bit patchy) and an OPI top coat to finish it off. I'm not usually a huge fan of dark colours on my finger nails, I tend to be a bit of a Barbie pink kinda gal, but this one is sparkly enough to be an exception! You should see it twinkle in the sunlight! You can order it online - here!
I want to say a huge thank you to my lovely, very thoughtful fiancée who was the one who sent me this. He was away at the time and had seen me mention it on here so he ordered it from a UK store for me! Such a nice surprise, isn't he sweet!
Perhaps I should start mentioning just how absolutely, totally incredible Celine Handbags are?!!
Particularly the Luggage Phantom in stone/beige colour or white if possible. One of those would be perfect for summer, don't you ladies think?! If you want to send one of those my way honey, that'd be fine!

If I really can't have the handbag though...well...I guess I'd accept a consolation gift of any ALL of the following pretty shades which will be perfect for spring/summer...

That is all.

PS: I'm joking about wanting him sending me further gifts, I really am very grateful for the nail polish and do think it was lovely of him to send me it. Unless of course you are my fiancée reading this...in which case...I am one hundred percent deadly serious!! :)

I absolutely adore Deborah Lippmann! I've been planning on picking up 'Glitter in the Air' for a while now.

DeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous! I still don't own any Lippman polishes :( xx

I'm like that with my hands. When I wear any of the Deborah Lippmann glitters I find myself looking at my hands and moving them around to make my nails twinkle. i probably look really weird doing that, haha!
Deletex
I dont know about a light color for the Celine. I am so paranoid of it getting dirty haha. But a navy phantom is on my list. Wayyy to go though. But thats fine because I have my mini luggage zihi :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know what you mean, I guess in the ideal world I'd be able to afford lots of designer bags and rotate them so that none of them ever got messed up or worn looking :)

Wow, this is gorgeous *need*!!

I still haven't tried a deborah lippman but they always look stunning. I think up in the air might be perfection for spring!
ReplyDeletexxx
I just ordered it! Ive been thinking about it for a while and after writing this post I started looking at swatches online which totally convinced me :)
DeleteGlitter in the air have similar look like Pupa´s nail polish, I use it here:http://mysweetstrawberries.blogspot.com/2012/01/like-rainbow.html. And I agree with you opinion about Celine, I prefer Boston:D

I had a look at your post, thats a really nice polish too. It's a bit different though because of the base colour. It reminds me a lot of China Glaze's 'Snow Globe' which I did a post with:

Love that polish! She makes the most amazing polish. I really need to get my hands on a few bottles.
ReplyDeleteYeah you do, theyre all so fun! They're a bit pricey though, which is maybe a good job for me though otherwise I might own the whole collection by now!

amazing polish
ReplyDeleteOh my, such an amazing nailpolish! The color is marvellous..

Hee hee, the Celine is gorgeous but I really shouldn't lust after any more bags right now I'm still biting at the bit for a Miu miu bow like yours and also, the Balenciga keeps popping up in posts/videos and I love the little details on it.
ReplyDeleteI shouldnt be lusting after any more either! I would love a Celine though and about ten other bags!! haha!
DeleteI love balenciagas but I think there's far too many fakes, I think theyre the most commonly replicated bag. in fact whenever I see anyone with one I tend to just assume its fake.
i bought a bag that i posted about a while back, it looks a lot like the Balenciaga city bag but it doesnt have any Balenciaga branding. It cost me about £15 so I'm pretty happy with that.
Glad I opened your eyes to Lippmann, theyre such fun polishes, I think everyone should try at least one. I just ordered the middle one I mentioned in the post. I'm so addicted to them!
Ooh, I forgot to say that nail polish is absolutely beautiful. Your Lipmann posts have opened my eyes to a great brand that I otherwise wasn't really aware of. :)
ReplyDeleteAcross the Universe is just beautiful. I NEED that polish!

Your nails look beautiful - I just bought my first 3 Deborah Lippmann polishes and I love them, your post has made me WANT more and more - the middle one of the bottom 3 looks stunning too <3
ReplyDeletePlease see my review...xx

oooh I saw on your blog that you got the 'Get The Party Started' set. That was my introduction to Deborah Lippmann polishes. I wrote about the set too a little while back. I love 'Candy Shop', I think that's still my favorite DL polish. I just ordered 'In The Air' though and I have a feeling I'm going to love it! x
DeleteI LOVE this shade, so fun and glam-time.

I am happy I found your blog. I need a lot of help with all of this stuff!!! I really Iwould never wear that kind of polish...but I like it!!
ReplyDeleteI am your newest follower..pls follow back if you can.
Aw thanks! Thank you for following me too, I'll stop by your blog soon.
DeleteTo be honest this nail polish is a bit darker and a bit more out there than my usual choices but I like to try new things out. Sometimes I love them, sometimes I hate them. I love this polish on my toes, I'm undecided about it on my finger nails though.

That nail polish is so stunning! Such a gorgeous deep blue colour and amazing glitter. Admittedly it took me a while to come around to the Celine bag, but now I really like it. Not sure if I'd ever splurge on one though!
ReplyDeletesuch a pretty, pretty color
