Outdoors, full shade.

After the bright, beautiful, colorful, complicated, bright, cheerful, blinding, happy (and did I mention bright?) nail colors I wore to the concert last week, I needed something more... calm, I guess? All Hail The Queen is a beautiful color that seems to change shade depending on your skin tone or something. On some people, like Jacie at You've Got Nail, it almost looks like a sand color. Then on some folks like Jen over at The PolishAholic (and apparently me), it deepens into a toasty tone. Or maybe they changed the formula when they changed the name, I'm not sure. (THE Queen used to be MCQueen in honor of the designer, but his people didn't want his name used, apparently.) Either way, it's a beautiful tan/brown with holo glitter lightly mixed in.

Base was Orly Nailtrition, then Orly Bonder. Top coat is Seche Vite.

It was during the wearing of this polish that I realized that my nails were officially Too Long. I broke a third nail trying to fasted my seat belt. My seat belt for cryin' out loud. So I've since nubbinized. I think I'm going to stamp my current color after I get some sleep, so hopefully there'll be another post in a day or two.
