So after Courtney totally flipped over
butter LONDON's Wallis, I grabbed this with a Zappos.com gift card I earned with my credit card points. I wasn't so sure about this when I ordered it, but I figured since I had nothing like it, why not try it! In general I have really loved all my butter LONDON polishes, and while the formula was great for me on Wallis, the color was so NOT me at all!
Wallis is a tarnished green/gold color, and like Courtney said in her review, goes on like a foil. I particularly partial to foils. I just really can't get past how gold this looks on me. The green is there, but barely. Even in the shade (pictures below), it's still so gold. What's interesting is looking at these pictures, I don't hate it on my skin tone, but it's just not me and I know I would never wear it. So unfortunately this one is going in the blog sale pile for me.

Wallis is part of the Fall 2011 collection. You can still get it at Ulta or at butter LONDON's website for $14. What do you think about these weird green/golds? Are you a fan like Courtney or a hater like me?
Gosh, this polish looks amazing! I definitely have a thing for gold :)

So sad you didn't love this one! I can definitely see that it pulls much more gold on you. It still looks pretty awesome, though! :-D
