I feel I almost have to be, having been raised in a traditional setting (no tattoos, multiple piercings or dyed hair for me!), and possessing that ‘traditional’ hourglass figure that screams to be put into waist-emphasizing dresses and a-line skirts. Safe, neutral, classic. That’s my motto.
Every once in a while, though, a small part of me screams for the edgy fashion trends that define a generation.
This is exactly why I look to blogs like BleachBlack: it lets that piece of me explore fashion terrain I dare not expose myself to publicly. And with my recent obsession with nail polish , it was a match made in heaven when BleachBlack came out with their lovely duo-chromed polish, Dickweed.
Now, of course, with Maybelline’s newest nail polish LE collection for Fall 2011 Fashion Week (detailed by Nouveau Cheap), I am hoping against hope that there is a similarity between Dickweed and Maybelline’s Be Scene in Green.
Oh that is a lovely blue! I actually just purchased Be Scene In Green myself, hoping it was a metallic teal/green/gold duo-chrome, but alas, it is just a plain green metallic-- pretty though.

I like to Google swatches of colors to try and get an idea of how it looks in different lights/on various skin tones, and to save myself from a possibly costly leap of faith! Good luck in your polishing pursuits. ♥
You're so nice, posting those links for me and everything :D Thank you for the help!
