Yoshi the Red-shelled Reindino! Enchanted Polish Olive The Other Reindeer + Dollish Polish Dino-mite Yoshi

Hello hello! Today I have a fun, very unplanned and unexpected mani for you that I really love a lot! I did a little swatching today, and the last planned swatch was to throw on Enchanted Polish Olive The Other Reindeer and see if I could finally catch a ray of sunlight while wearing this stunning olive green holo (honestly, I've worn it twice, and twice it was overcast. Ridiculous.). Of course, once I got it out in the sun it was so insanely gorgeous and amazing that I knew I wouldn't be taking it off today... but I thought it would be fun to add a little glitter, if I could find the right glitter. I toyed with some fun rainbow mixes but didn't really want to overpower Olive's holo magic... and I finally settled on Dollish Polish Dino-mite Yoshi, which was totally perfect! Yoshi has small bright green and pink squares, medium yellowy cream hexes, white microglitter and red microshimmer. A very thin, careful coat was the perfect touch to add some fun without overpowering -- check it out!

And of course, here are some pictures of Olive by itself:

 It's a bummer that the sun was getting lower by the time I got outside to take pics for the full manicure, because the holo of Olive is not diminished at all with all those extra coats on top of it. Super gorgeous! I adore both of these polishes, so it's fun that I was able to make them go together so well :)
