Nails I Love
ZOYA –
Kelly
Hi Goddesses
Zoya’s Kelly is the
2nd polish I have decided to reboot, because my original post is
just tooooooo woeful lol. She’s probably
the first example of a polish that really opened my eyes to how amazing a
colour can be, and dragged my ass out of it’s favourite pinky-reddy-browny rut.
Kelly is from Zoya’s
WONDERFUL Collection of 2010 and is a traffic-stopping drama of a colour. Darker on the finger than in the bottle, it’s
a dark plume of purple smoke – deep, mysterious and totally unlike any other
colour.

Kelly is a smoky
purple on top of a dark grey base. Under
certain lights there are some real petrol blue tones in here as well. It’s an undefinable melodrama of a colour,
and I really don’t get why Zoya thought they had to reinvent the wheel and
create Petra, when Kelly is already one of the amazingest polishes of all time
anyway.
Kelly is perfect for
dark nights. She’s not grey, nor purple,
nor blue, but some new invention inbetween.
She screams for chunky knits and heavy boots and roaring fires, unlike
her twinset and pearls twin, Caitlin. Is
she a blackened indigo, or a dark indigo denim ? Maybe.
Either way, and
however you try to define her, you’ll find there’s one word that’s essential –
stunning.
Enjoy xx J
