Crushin' Nail Colour

Orbis Non Sufficit. Orbis Non Sufficit. Orbit Non Sufficit.

Say that five times and tell me it's not a tongue twister...

This incredible color was created by Scrangie from The Polish Addict

http://www.thepolishaddict.com/ and Michelle from ALU for

Rescue Beauty Lounge.

They consider it a moody grayed-out combat green creme.

I absolutely adore it and would CRUSH this during the FALL season.

SOLD at http://www.rescuebeautylounge.com/ for $18.00

OK guys...

I've seen this shoe in other colorways, but this one is by far my favorite!

The suede and patent leather blend of 2-toned purple excited me.
