Hi Goddesses
Today I've got my favourite red polishes of the year for you. For a colour that is so one-dimensional, we've seen a great variety of new finishes and exciting combos. So, excluding my Big 4 brands, here are my Top 7 Reds of the Year.

Bondi - Strawberry Fields

Ah, Bondi. Let's not even go there, but this not-red, not-pink, not-coral polish was a lovely Spring hit for me.
Emily de Molly - Ruby Slippers

In my book, there is NOTHING as good as a sexy red holo, and EdM (and Lilypad) both hit that ball right out of the park this year. This is a nice deep red - not pinky and pretty - to give you the bloodied depth you need.
HITS - So Unique

This duochrome does things to me! A purple to ruby bend ? Yikes, it doesn't get more Crumpet-y than that. (At the time of writing, I own, but haven't yet worn, Crows Toes Indian Summer).
Mentality Nail Polish - Tempest
Now this is how to do a red! Matte or glossy, this stunner is The Bomb! Deep and darkly passionate, this is a red full of violence. It literally glows, it's that hot.
Ninja Polish - Ambrosia

I love polishes on the red/orange cusp, and this tomato-hued stunner was divine. Laden with gold shimmer, this just screams joy and happiness.
piCture pOlish - O'Hara

Another red holo, this is on the bright side of the spectrum. Subtle as a brick, but just perfect. A mani for one of those days when you need to put the world to rights.
Pretty Serious - Viscous Vampire

Oh lala. Shimmery red gorgeousness sprinkled with pink glitters. Ah, this is just sexiness on a stick! Gorgeous, glorious and totally thrilling.
