I’m watching the poor postman out the window in his flourescent orange windcheater. He’s got an armful of a envelopes and is being blown all over the place… I’d have even more sympathy if he’d already passed my flat but I’m guessing that a couple of those envelopes might belong to me… so hurry it along mister. It’s wild out there today, truly horrible and from what I read on Twitter, our capital city has gone into a transportation meltdown thanks to a number of tube strikes across the network. Nice week for it.
So, in a bid to inject a little calm and tranquility into an otherwise turbulent week, let me introduce you to a polish from Butter London’s Summer 2013 collection. A collection that was based mostly upon metallics, except for this little odd-one-out. Butter London Poole is a dusky aqua blue with a hint of green… it’s namesake, a town not far down the coast from me, is an absolutely beautiful place to go in the Summer and the birthplace of LUSH Cosmetics dontchano?
What a lovely shade eh? Not entirely undupe-able but very pretty nonetheless. The formula was ok, not one of Butter’s best… it needed a bit of smoothing and lacked the nice, even flow that most of their polishes provide. Opacity was good in two coats, I thought it might need three but the second coat pulled it all together.
Butter London Poole is priced at £11.95 and available to buy online from powderrooms.com
What shades are you loving at the moment, do I need to prise your fingers away from your Winter staples yet?

This shade looks beautiful and would be really great to wear in the spring. Right now in England it is very dark and gloomy outside but this would definitely brighten up the mood a little!

What a pretty shade! Too bad the formula isn’t that easy to work with.
I am a big fan of Butter London-this colour is super pretty
