I have 42 nail polishes plus various top coats, base coats, nail stickers, etc currently as gave some away. I bought an organiser to keep them tidy(ish).
I have about 150 polishes ranging from highend (Chanel,OPI, Nars) to cheap (M&S, Barry M). Now feel a bit sick when I look at them. I have not painted my nails at either end for weeks and yet I have spent (wasted) so much money this winter collecting colours like a small boy collecting footie stickers. Thankfully my obsession has stopped. Although worryingly I seem to have started seeking out unusual jewellery, my favourite being Scandinavian stuff, and I fear that is going to cost me more than a few bottles of colour. I need to give myself a talking to.
What are you lot wearing these days? Has anyone tried the new Models Own Polish for Tans? Not that I tan at all, but I do like neon colours on my nails in summer...
I had a big clear out recently and passed about 50 bottles of polish on to my colleagues and got my numbers down to about 350. I then wet out and bought loads of new ones! I don't think I can handle the idea of being streamlined, haha!
Today my nails are blue with freehanded roses on. I need to take some photos...

Elanor I just wanted to say I love your blog, you're so talented!
I have been sticking to quite neutral colours and pinks at the moment. Would love to try out some more nail art and stuff but never have the time to sit down and do it. At the moment I have the Nails Inc polish 'Sugarloaf Sunset' on, which I got free with a magazine, really pretty polish with a good formula. I love it it when Nails Inc are in the magazines, would never buy them normally.
Well done on having a clear out, I haven't managed that but the only polish I've bought in the last month or so is the one which came free in the magazine. I find I have so many now that I very rarely see a colour and feel like I need to add it to my collection.
Found this thread out of nowhere and the posts are inspiring. I had a sudden urge to paint my nails as soon as I came home yesterday evening from work. I think its a 17 nail varnish called spring pink. I'm not sure if it was from a collection last year or the year before. I'd post a photo but I'm not that good at making the varnish look great on my nails, even with a couple of coats.

I went and got the black one as well - not as good as the gold but still the best black I have.
