ellagee Ziggy Stardust

Good evening fellow polish lovers!  Hope your Friday was awesome!  Mine was really jam-packed and went by in a flash.  I'm literally sitting here at my middle little's basketball practice and using the time to type.  Gosh it's loud in here and every ball that hits the ground vibrates the entire gym floor - do not like.  Of course I know nothing about basketball and it's my least favorite sport.  But it makes me happy to see my little Julian having a great time.  Something I do know a few things about is polish.  So let's talk ellagee Ziggy Stardust.  I picked this up a while ago, then got bogged down with reviews and it was pushed to the depths of my polish piles.  Well nobody puts Ziggy in the corner!  So I'm here to make amends and share this fun, glittery, Bowie inspired polish with you now. I actually don't see Ziggy Stardust in the shop right now so I'm not sure if it's gone or just out of stock.  If it's gone I really do apologize for not getting a post up featuring it sooner - let's hope it's just out of stock!  But there are loads of other fabulous polishes in the ellagee shop right now - be sure to check those out!

The Lacquer Legion: Glam

Good morning!  I am excited to participate in The Lacquer Legion theme today, "Glam."  Glam means alot of things to me, all of them orbit around expensive, luxury items.  But I also think of Glam Rock.  As found in Wikipedia, Glam rock is "a style of rock and pop music that developed in the United Kingdom in the early 1970's, which was performed by singers and musicians who wore outrageous, clothes, makeup and hairstyles, particularly platform-soled boots and glitter."  And who better to use as my muse than David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust.  I sure do love that man, he's so iconic in music and fashion.  He was one of the main glam rock artists in that era and you can find pictures of him in some totally wild outfits.  But I went with what I feel is the most recognizable image of him during the glam rock period, face painted with a lightning bolt as Ziggy Stardust.  Did I mention that I love David Bowie?  Right, I did.  So let's check out my mani now!

You can participate in The Lacquer Legion's themes too!  Be sure to follow the Facebook and Instagram pages for info of upcoming themes and the proper hashtags to use!  Check out #llglam today to see what other bloggers came up with!

So here's my inspiration...


And here's my #llglam mani!  I used the following polishes: a-England Fonteyn, OPI 4 In The Morning, OPI Alpine Snow, China Glaze Riveting, Essie Naughty Nautical, Jordana The Artist and China Glaze Sexagon.  I went for rock & roll and bling!  I think it worked out well and I am very happy with end result.
