I mentioned in the last post that I was out of town for a wedding. Well, it was a lovely after-5, dress up in cocktail dresses and enjoy the garden party sort of affair, which means I certainly had to have my nails compliment my deep turquoise dress and aquamarine jewels.

I've worn Femme Fatale Maze of Mirrors once
before as an accent nail and striping polish, but this time I went with it solo.

This time, I did one less coat, stopping at 2 - it's a slightly lighter, more ethereal look than getting Maze up to complete opacity, but the bottle-glass aqua color is still there in full glory. If anything, the golden shimmer seemed even more apparent to me this time.

While I'd originally intended to stamp using gold polish and a pattern that was complimentary to my dress, The gold shimmers and delicately blingy holo sparkle spoke for themselves enough to not need anything else.

While the shimmer and glittery bits were a little effort to remove later, they made things extremely forgiving and quick to apply, a big bonus for a polish used when travelling without your entire mani cave. Also, Maze of Mirrors looked smashing with my fancy aquamarine cocktail ring <3

Maze still snags 4 out of 5 stars this 2nd time around, but unfortunately all of Femme Fatale's distributors are sold out of this shade (AFAIK).
