Serendipity

Webster’s Dictionary defines the word Serendipity as “the faculty or phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for”.  This has happened many times in history and it happened to me on Saturday when I was doing my nails for the next day.  I wear my indies a lot on the weekends because I am not sure what I am going to do or wear but I have some idea.  Going through my indies I found and older polish from Daring Diva called Celery Stalk and said bingo.  This will be perfect.  I had only worn it once and I am trying to wear my older polish more often.  Now I had been looking for a color to wear Once Upon a Time from Whimsical Ideas by Pam but never found the right color.  After putting Celery Stalk on it just did not have the amount of glitter I wanted.  I had Once Upon a Time on  my work desk for  most of the week trying to find just the right color.  I put one coat on and BINGO!  It was like they were made for each . Now, I have to say one thing about these glitter tops, they are great because they do almost work as a topcoat.  They dry fast and to a hard finish not like some others that have a long dry time.  I do recommend top coat just to keep everything in place but this formulas is almost like a topcoat with glitter.  Fast dry time, I love that.  I used my Julep polymer top coat and it was perfect.   I was really happy with the outcome and was sad to take it off today but it just did not go with what I was going to wear.   Today I wore 17 Carrots also from Whimsical Ideas by Pam.  I will have those swatches and review tomorrow.   I was really happy and did find myself staring at my nails several times during the day.  So, here are the pictures.  See what you think.
