Zoya Carly



This is Zoya Carly from the Summer 2012 Collection.

 Zoya describes Carly as a "very rich, bold, red-toned dark purple with iridescent red and silver metallic shimmer and a dense foil finish."  I would probably call it a burgundy/wine foil...that's probably why Zoya wouldn't hire me to describe their polishes:)

Dense is right.  This reminds me of Song in the fact that people that appreciate a one-coater, would love it.  I, on the other hand, always do at least two coats and with these foil/metallic polishes, it gets a bit thick and goopy after the first coat.  Again, I probably shouldn't complain about having a one-coater:)

Carly is so beautiful to me.  If I would arrange my nail polish by color, I think the most popular color would be burgundy/wine colors.  I have always been drawn to that shade.  I think it looks best with my skin tone, and it's more of a classic nail color than green or blue.  Don't get me wrong, I still love my unique blues and greens, but sometimes it's nice to wear the old standby.

Have a great day!

  1. Gorgeous! I'm wearing Carly today, too, but satinified, lol. I wasn't happy at all with my photos, though, so I'll try again tomorrow. ;) I totally agree about the blues and greens. Remember when it was, like, sooo out there to wear blue nail polish? I guess it still sort of is. ;)

    1. Wow, we're twins again! I think in my real life people probably look at me weird when I wear blue nail polish...but in this blogging world, it's normal:)

  3. wow, this one is GORGEOUS!!! I think I will put it on my want-list... do you think it's similar to any other Zoyas?
    Btw, I am horrible with color descriptions, so I'm so glad Zoya is so accurate with theirs!! I can just copy and paste and be done with it =)

    1. I don't think it's similar to anything else I have...or any other Zoya's. I just got back from a walk and it looked a little more purple when the sun was going down. It's very unique and I think worth it to pick it up:)

  5. I adore Carly & have worn it twice so far (which is alot for a new polish in a big collection):) I am really bad at describing colour & even worst with scents.

  10. Burgundy wine colors are also a weak spot of mine. I still don't own this one, but I really need to. The contrast with your shirt makes is so incredibly glamorous.
