Flyin' High

'Whaaa...?! Medium teal creme in winter???' Yeah yeah, I know I shouldn't be wearing all these colours in winter. But the weather is so gloomy, and these polishes cheer me up :)  

I'm having a tough time surviving the Delhi cold. These are my first winters in Delhi, so I'm not used to such freezing temperatures. I loved Mumbai winters, pleasant weather, not that cold at all. In fact, Mumbai had the same kind of weather all year round, apart from raining like crazy in July and August. *sigh* I really miss Mumbai, Bombay Scottish(my old school), Raheja Vihar(where I lived). I miss shopping in Bandra and Hiranandani. I miss eating chaat and pani puri at Galleria. Most of all, I miss my friends, Vasundhara, Jemima, Renuka, and everyone else at Bomaby Scottish. I may not be in touch with  many of them, but they all hold a special place in my heart. We used to have our annual concert at this time of the year at Bomaby Scottish. Loads of music, dancing, bunking classes all December for rehearsals, and just going crazy! It used to be amazing, it was like one HUGE party! There are so many times when I wish I was back in Mumbai.... I still think of it as home, I can't help it....Ok, I'm babbling now, getting depressed writing this :'( .... I'll shut up.

Onto the polish, Flyin' High is a beautiful teal creme which dries to a really glossy finish. It leans more blue than green, closer to an aqua, and dries darker and greener than the bottle colour. It has sorta a dusty feel, yet it's so bright and cheerful.Flyin High is a very pigmented polish and was smooth and opaque in two thin coats. It was a dream to apply. Perfection. Swatches are without base or top coat.
(Did I mention that I miss Mumbai?)

This polish is gorgeous! I love China Glaze Flyin' High. Everytime I see it on someone's blog it makes me smile. I'm kind of shocked I still don't own it!

@ Vasu: I know, & we were forced to wear all those glittery saris. I wish I had been there at the concert yar :((((( Remember last year, when the band was setting up all their instruments, we were supposed to crack jokes for the audience and we cracked such sad ones, lol!

@ Jennifer Leigh: Thank you :)

@ Nikki: Well, then you really need to buy it! :)
