Today I went way back (Take it Back by Reba McEntire just popped into my head...??) into my old pics and pulled out this a-England manicure I did. It was a long time ago - like, back in May 2012. Do you know how many manicures I've done since then?? Neither do I.
Anyway - here we go...
These polishes are from a-England's The Mythicals collection. The red is Perceval and the accent nail is King Arthur. I am indescribably awful with classic literature, anything mythical or anything even remotely related to history...be it real or fake - so I'm not even going to begin to describe the characters related to these names. But what I will say is, I have every single polish from The Mythical's collection, and one or two from The Legends (and a few more on my wish list!) and a-England is the bomb.
The bomb formulas. The bomb names. The bomb colors!
This is the first mani I did when I received this set. Perceval is a deep, rich, shimmery red. It kind of just glows and gleams in the light. Think, Zoya Elisa but deeper and richer. King Arthur is a similar finish, but the shimmer is made up of slightly larger particles. I have yet to wear this color as a full manicure but I need to soon - look how pretty that nail is!
I enjoyed wearing these two colors together a lot - maybe it's time to bring it back out!
Do any of you know anything about Perceval and/or King Arthur? Feel free to share you knowledge/expertise in the comments!
OK. remember that movie, A Kid in King Arthur's Court? that was based on the book A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. Kevin Costner played Robin Hood. and there you have the extent of my medieval knowledge.
ReplyDeleteSounds about like mine - except I've never seen A Kid in King Arthur's Court nor heard of the book A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.
