Unlikely Inspiration and China Glaze 'Pelican Gray'

I asked my science-obssessed, chemist boyfriend if he liked my new China Glaze "Pelican Gray" manicure.

He replied that he did, and that it "looks like you left a leaky blue pen in a glass of milk, and then painted your nails with said milk."

If I can remember to be as succint, accurate and creative in my writing as he was in that off-the-cuff statement, I will be doing a great job.

Writing inspiration from the most unlikely source.

I love Pelican Grey. Your boyfriend sounds like my husband (mathematician) -- he described my wedges as "amorphous blobs you wear on your feet." :P xx

That may just be the best description of wedges I have ever heard.

Who knew they could have such a command of adjectives?

gorgeous colour.. especially with the prada!

Thanks Sammi.

I'm loving muted, moody nail colours at the moment.

And your jewellery collection (and hair!) fit the mood perfectly, too!

I love this colour! onto my shopping list!
