It's a back-to-back Smitten Polish spectacular! Yesterday you saw Pink Lemonade by Smitten Polish, and today I'm showing you The One On The Right, a vibrant medium tone blue with purple and sky blue glitter in small and medium sizes. I knew I had to have this polish the minute I saw it on Jennifer's blog (her lovely nails are the source of a great many lemmings for me!). I love lacquers that combine a pigmented and creamy base with fun shades and sizes of glitter. This was two coats, and it applied smoothly.
What do you think of The One On The Right? And for that matter, does anyone know what the name of this polish is a reference to? I keep wondering about it, but have yet to find an explanation!
*Edit: Noelle of Smitten Polish clarified the meaning behind the name in the comments section. In her words: "When I first made this polish, I had it swatched with two other colors. When I showed it to people to get opinions, everyone said, "I love the one on the right," and it just stuck!"
Smitten Polish is available both on Etsy, as well as at Llarowe.
This is beautiful!! I love how the purple glitters stand out on the blue base. I have no idea what the name is in reference to either lol!
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice combination- blue and purple. Enough to keep me happy!
DeleteSo pretty! If you find out what the name refers to, let us know!
ReplyDeleteI surely will!
DeleteOh my gosh! Blue and purple together = forever <3
ReplyDeleteI love it! :D
DeleteI think the name might be a reference to a Dorothy Parker story called "The One on the Right."
ReplyDeleteJust googled it- thanks for the tip, Madeline! :)
DeleteOh my!! This looks amazing on your nails! I'm so glad that my nails inspired you to purchase this! I recently got Kalahari Kiss cause of you! Can't wait to wear it :D
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your post about it- it'll probably inspire me to pull it out and where it again! ;)
DeleteThe name is too funny - and the polish is beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteAgreed- thank you, Maria!
DeleteHi Tara! When I first made this polish, I had it swatched with two other colors. When I showed it to people to get opinions, everyone said, "I love the one on the right," and it just stuck!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the explanation, Noelle! Haha, I love it. :D
DeleteThis looks great! And I love how the blue glitters don't get lost!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's actually a nice contrast- kind of a sky blue instead of a deeper medium blue of the base.
DeleteI love blues and this is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Thanks!
DeletePretty! I love how the blue and purple colors look together. :-)

Thank you, Yun!
DeleteOoh definitely digging that color combination! I was hoping you would be able to explain the nail polish name lol.
ReplyDeleteActually, Noelle explains it in the comments section above! I was going to mention it in my next post, but maybe I better add an edit to this one, too!
DeleteI love this. Will definitely be checking out smitten
ReplyDeleteI highly recommend it- I've loved all the polishes I've ordered from Smitten Polish. :)
