Post Chinese New Years

Oh my goodness, I'm really behind on posting my holiday nails. But better late than never, I hope. For my Chinese New Years nails, it turns out that I'm not big on red nail polish. I like red, but not the vibrant red associated with Chinese New Year celebrations. I'm more of a dark red or autumn-ish red. Though funny enough, I'm wearing a bright red shirt right now *laughs*  And in my entire collection of nail polish, I only own one red. Spoiled (Pick Your Poison). In the bottle it looks dark, but once you apply it to your nails...WOW. 
This was one coat of Spoiled (Pick Your Poison) layered with Essie (Shine of the Times). And sorry for the lighting. It was overcast when I took these pictures. So no sunlight :(

I really don't know about this shade on my hand...it's a tad too red for my taste.

(Under artificial lighting) And there you go! The festive gold and red colors of Chinese New Years! Sorry it looks a bit green in this lighting, but I promise you it did not have that appearance in the sunlight!
