I ask that you please don't republish these pictures without my permission.<br /><br />I haven't really had time to play with all the colors as in depth as I'd like so I can't give you full reviews now but I'd be happy to answer any questions you have.<br /><br />What I can say is that <strong>Catherine the Grape</strong>, <strong>Russian Navy</strong> and <strong>Moscow At Midnight</strong> are the standout shades for me. They are each unique and stunning on the nail.<br /><br />To be honest, I really didn't expect to love Catherine the Grape from just looking at the bottle but, as they say, looks are deceiving. Applied, it is a gorgeous plummy purple with bronzey shimmer.<br /><br />Moscow at Midnight is a near black with reddish shimmer that stands out in the sun but just adds interest in indoor lighting.<br /><br />Russian Navy could be OPI Ink's deep dark cousin. It's navy on the nail but it has blue, purple and pink shimmer to add depth.<br /><br /><div align="center">Boris & Natasha, Catherine The Grape, Kreme de la Kremlin, Cosmo-Not Tonight Honey</div><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXPGMdaI/AAAAAAAAAzs/aoqW1lKA3lY/s1600-h/swatchrussian1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077771595654395298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXPGMdaI/AAAAAAAAAzs/aoqW1lKA3lY/s320/swatchrussian1.jpg" border="0" /> <p align="center"></a></p>St. Petersburgundy, An Affair In Red Square, Vodka & Caviar, Ruble For Your Thoughts<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXfGMdbI/AAAAAAAAAz0/Wj8nqIvOyzs/s1600-h/swatchrussian2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077771599949362610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXfGMdbI/AAAAAAAAAz0/Wj8nqIvOyzs/s320/swatchrussian2.jpg" border="0" /> <p align="center"></a></p>Midnight In Moscow, Siberian Nights, Russian Navy, Suzi Says Da!<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXfGMdcI/AAAAAAAAAz8/MHPa7nas62Q/s1600-h/swatchrussian3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077771599949362626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXfGMdcI/AAAAAAAAAz8/MHPa7nas62Q/s320/swatchrussian3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdqvGMdQI/AAAAAAAAAyc/W6VU6geRXCA/s1600-h/russianwheel1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077770831150216450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdqvGMdQI/AAAAAAAAAyc/W6VU6geRXCA/s320/russianwheel1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/Rnfdq_GMdRI/AAAAAAAAAyk/KB4BxvRrsZs/s1600-h/russianwheel2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077770835445183762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/Rnfdq_GMdRI/AAAAAAAAAyk/KB4BxvRrsZs/s320/russianwheel2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdrPGMdSI/AAAAAAAAAys/IYzg05nSwdA/s1600-h/russianwheel3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077770839740151074" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdrPGMdSI/AAAAAAAAAys/IYzg05nSwdA/s320/russianwheel3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdrfGMdTI/AAAAAAAAAy0/UncbJXSHuOk/s1600-h/russianwheel4.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077770844035118386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdrfGMdTI/AAAAAAAAAy0/UncbJXSHuOk/s320/russianwheel4.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdrfGMdUI/AAAAAAAAAy8/_Xxm0EsngQI/s1600-h/russianwheel5.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077770844035118402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfdrfGMdUI/AAAAAAAAAy8/_Xxm0EsngQI/s320/russianwheel5.jpg" border="0" /></a> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077771595654395282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8D5qVf5VMxs/RnfeXPGMdZI/AAAAAAAAAzk/E3DOgaAzhpw/s320/russianwheel6.jpg" border="0" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8463573814677466428-1247525405049221704?l=www.alllacqueredup.com'/></div>All Lacquered Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09469535584973184196editor@alllacqueredup.com23
