My Top Picks of 2014

This year's list is shorter than last year's, and it was easier to narrow down.  I'm not sure exactly why that is.  I bought plenty of new releases and even received some press samples for a while.  There were so many polishes that I liked over the past twelve months, but I managed to winnow this post down to the ones that really grabbed me and stuck in my mind.


That's just a sampling.  Scroll on for the full shebang, my Top....45-ish?

ILNP Electric Carnival (over OPI The "It" Color)


Such a great year for greens, wasn't it?  I also branched out into smaller boutique and indie brands a bit, which was fun.  OPI is still my favorite, and I'm kicking myself for not finishing up my Gwen Stefani Holiday picks in time.  I have a strong feeling that First Class Desires might have made it onto this list.

Here's hoping that 2015 brings us all peace, pleasure, and polish!
