The basecolor is one of the new Catrice polishes, How I Matt Your Mother, which also has the brushed metal effect (not visible here because of the TC). It's like a matte but then with some slightly gritty texture, as you can see on these polishes as well. The color itself? Love it. It's a blue-ish dark grey with a hint of purple, and I think it combines great with different colors. And I'll have to try stamping with it as well, it covered great!

I still find it super pretty! Someone who isn't into polished/stamped nails probably wouldn't notice it but those who are... :)
ReplyDeleteOoh! I love those! Subtle, hiding until the right moment to pop out and wow everybody! :)
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love how subtle this is! Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteLove the colours you chose hun..awesome:)
ReplyDeleteI actually really love this stamping! It's subtle, but very gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI love this stamping actually! it's subtle which is just as pretty as more evident stamping.
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love it. I think the hidden stamping adds something very special and makes it work appropriate - at least I could get away with it ;-)
ReplyDeleteit is lovely!! I actually love subtle stamping!

This is outstanding! Love the use of Drummer Boy here - I almost got rid of that shade because I thought it was kind of un-celebratory looking - it's a dusty metallic shiner - but now seeing it with this matte/shine combo - well perfection!
ReplyDeletewoa!!!! i REALLY LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteI like the combo, not a bad choice at all! It is really sparkly in sunlight and definitely noticeable! Love the stamped design!
ReplyDeleteI love subtle stamping! I have done a similar combo before and I just can't get enough. Both colors are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love it. I'm.just now trying out stamping but some of it feels silly to me as a 39 year old. I think.sometimes most are too young for me. This would satisfy my stamping urges without.making me feel like an idiot! :)
ReplyDeleteOMG you're right this is amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you did make pics, I think this mani is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI really like this combo but HIMYM on it's own doesn't look special to me but like this is fantastic
