It's lucky that the new season nail shades have winged their way into the office; I was beginning to get rather bored of alternating between my summer staples of OPI's Cajun Shrimp and Malaga Wine, lovely as they are. The new lot are here and they are music to my ears (or nails).

A mix of colours, different shine levels and glitter too, I've died and gone to heaven with the generous variety we've amassed in the Never beauty cupboard. And as a die-hard nail girl who'll try just about anything, the new beauties on offer are making choosing really quite tricky. 

There's something for everyone, or every nail in my case. I liked them all, so I thought it only polite to try them all. It's surprising how different varnishes look out of the bottle on your own nail; it really does bring them to life. And in the process, I chose Estee lauder's Chrome Violet and OPI Lost On Lombard as my top favourites. They'll be coming with me everywhere.

See them in all their glory in the gallery above. And it's trial and error when testing, so keep a bottle of remover handy.
