Since spring and summer are all about colour I thought I would try to be a little adventurous with my nails. Those who know me KNOW I’m not really one to try out new nail colours. I pretty much stick to soft pinks, purples and nudes. The occasional dark red in the Fall I like but the brighter colours I tend to leave to my toes.
I wanted to step out of my comfort zone a little bit and try out some colours that I didn’t have.
I ordered “Bossy Boots” because it looked like a really nice fresh mint colour. Reminded me of all the pretty mint clothes I’ve been seeing around.
I have to say I hated this colour on me LOL! It looked like a dirty green on me – perhaps I have too much of a yellow undertone to my skin. I wore it for a couple of days hoping it would grow on me but I had to take it off. Don’t let this deter you, though, this colour got really high reviews! Just wasn’t for me.
I also tried out “Trout Pout”
I was really attracted to this “pinky-coral” colour so I wanted to give it a shot.
I really liked this one! It’s brighter that what I normally wear but I have to say it made me feel really girly and springy!

That’s true – but then my toes would look dirty LOL! Yeah the colour was just NOT for me 😛
Oh cool I should check that Cheeky Monkey one out!
It looked more “dirty” in real life LOL! I think I have too much of a yellow undertone in my skin so it was bringing the yellow out, the trout pout I loved though! Thanks Bessie 🙂
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the Butter London polishes! I’m no polish expert!
yes I usually buy Avon nail polishes when they are on sale for $2.99 😛
yes that colour I love!
Thanks Dani! Takes some getting used to for me 😛
I love Trout Pout. I might just need to pick this colour up because it’s perfect for summer!
Love both colours Elaine. Trout Pout looks great on you. You could always do Trout Pout on your fingernails and Bossy Boots on your toes:) I was about to put an order on nailpolishcanada but for Lillibet’s Jubilee. Think I’m going to have to make a trip to Holt’s-Sherway very soon!
love trout pout!! i have one similar to that by cheeky monkey called BFF. on my toes it looks neon pink but on my hands a nice coral-pink
I’ve never tried Butter polishes….I really love the coral one
Bossy boots looks like a light mint neon…but I know the feeling when you see nail polish in the bottle and it looks diff on. The second one trout pout is great! I like it, but I’ve never tried butter london nail polish!
Love Trout Pout – it’s such a pretty color. I really want to try Butter London polishes – have read so many good things about them – and I love their packaging!
I liked both colors on you! Never tried them coz I buy the nail polishes from my neighborhood drug store.
Oo la la, I love the coral polish.
Both colors look great on you! I think ‘Trout Pout’ has more of a shine that I prefer. I haven’t tried any of the Butter London polishes, but I really want to because of the rave reviews.
Hugs and Mocha,

LOVE these shades, Elaine! So gorgeous and perfect for Summer! <3
