Sorry to disappoint but this post isn't really as exciting as the title may lead you to believe...probably because I have yet to find my perfect trench coat...*sigh*.
It's a simple Nails of the Day featuring "Under My Trench Coat" from Sephora by O.P.I - a gorgeous grey/taupe with slight brownish undertones and a sheeny finish.
I have to admit I am one of those people who changes nail colours according to seasons, there's just something wrong about hot pink nails in Autumn (don't kill me!). I love the muted but almost royal tones of Autumn that make me think of fireplaces and jumpers and leaves and candles so I tend to wear burgundy, burnt orange, royal blues and purples, greys and nudes...mmm love.
I don't particularly feel the need to psycho-analyse this polish, I mean how much could you analyse a nail polish? *says the girl who just wrote a full paragraph on nail colours and seasons* But ahem, here are a few thoughts anyway:
* Beautiful colour,
* So Autumn,
* So polished looking
* Not a 'flat' grey colour like those I see garishly staring at me from Boots stands *coughBarryMcough*
* The sheen/very subtle shimmer effect looks gorgeous when it catches the light
* Very fluid, smooth and ungloopy consistency/formula
* Does need a top coat or tends to chip easily - really shouldn't happen with such an expensive brand but I'm such a sucker for their colour range I'll still keep buying from them!

(I don't know why but it looks kinda greeny/khaki in the pictures - I assure you it's not at all in real life!)
