Meh Monday? Have Some Bling!

Good Monday, Kitschies!  Did you enjoy your weekend?  I know I did!  Sorta.  We went to a 5-year-old's birthday party at the craziest place on Earth on Saturday - the boys had sensory overload and we threw them in bed by 7 that night.  Seriously.  They were totally out of hand and all we could do is put them to bed - for our sanity.  Don't get me wrong.  They had a blast (and the hubs and I had a good time, too), but it was just too much for them!  LOL  Then Sunday we had a little picnic at a park where we tried to fly a kite.  The wind just wasn't cooperative and we ended up holding the kite up more than it spent in the sky.  It didn't matter too much because the boys had fun anyway.

On to the polish, shall we?  I have a double-dose of holo bling for you today.  When I first started on this whole polish addiction thing, I craved holo polish.  I'd ask people if they'd heard of it and I got a blank stare.  How bad does that bug you?  Cuz I want to poke somebody in the eye when all I get is a blank stare.  ANYWAY...I did manage to get a few (thanks to some awesome bloggy buddies) and then my Mom had a couple (kinda by mistake) and she decided she didn't care for them, so she gave them to me! First, the old.

ChG TMI from the OMG Collection.  This collection came out before I rediscovered my love affair with nail polish so I missed the boat.  This is indoors with flash.

Outside with bright sun.  Do you hear the angels singing?  I do every time I wear one of the colors from the OMG collection.  Sound corny?  I know it does, but unless you see them in person, you just don't understand.

TMI is a pretty coral-y pink.  It's not quite as holo as 2NITE, but it's still full of holo bling!

Now the new.   I could hardly wait til ChG released their Tronica collection.  I called Sally Beauty and Ulta pretty much every week until I heard the magic words: Yeah, we have them.  Before that, I would get the phone equivalent to the blank stare.  I rushed down to Sallys as soon as I could and I picked up some of the collection.  This is the first mani I used them for.

This is ChG Techno Teal and Hyper Haute.  These were my favorite from Tronica.  As I'm sure you've seen on other blogs, Tronica isn't quite as holo as OMG, but for girls like me who can't get enough holo, this works.  This pic was taken in direct bright sunlight.  It's so hard to capture on (digital) film.

And with flash.  It's sparkly even when you can't see the rainbow, but it's prettier when you can.  When I picked these up, the sales assistant had no idea what it was about these polishes that makes them special.  And when I told her they're holographic, I had to explain to her what I meant by *holographic*.  C'mon people!

Ignore the smear of green on my index nail - I was playing around with a neon green and the Crackles I picked up at the same time.  LOL  I think these show up more holo IRL - cameras see what they want to see (they're so closed minded sometimes).

I have others from Tronica, but I haven't had a chance to try them out yet.  Which are your favorites from Tronica?  How 'bout all-time favorite holo?

OOOOH!  I have a giveaway coming up soon...keep your eyes peeled!
