St. Patrick's Day Nails

For St. Patrick's day I started out with two coats of China Glaze Paper Chasing, a green that falls somewhere between bright lime green and kelly green with a shimmery finish.

I layered a new polish I picked up yesterday, Icing Happy Go Lucky! over the top. Happy Go Lucky! has large green hexagon shaped glitter pieces with a liberal sprinkle of big silver holographic glitter all in a clear base. I used three coats and this mani and it turned out exactly how I imagined it. Green to celebrate the day, and glitter to celebrate what I think of when I think of St. Patricks day: going down to the local pub with some great friends and enjoying a green beer.

The green glitter is actually much lighter in real life than it appears in these pictures.
