If you could only wear one of your nail polishes all the time, to go with everything you wear, which one would it be?
My choice would be Chanel Ballerina.

Just wondered if anyone would recommend the Essie gel polish? Does it last?

Actually pepe, though I do buy Chanel sometimes for the colours I still don't think the texture is as good as Essie's.

Curse you lot! I think Chanel Ballerina will be my air port duty free treat in August!

Rimmel's Caramel Cupcake. Lasts for ages and is a lovely neutral.

Interested to see lots of Chanel recommendations - I love the colours but whenever I've bought them before the quality and duration have been terrible. Has it improved?

Avon metallic effects in copper.
It's textured too so touch ups work well and aren't noticeable :)

Orly in Beverly Hills Plum.

It's a glossy good quality pinky clear colour & makes my nails look in good condition & still not quite bare. Goes, without saying, with everything!

I always have the Cityscape on my toes - hate the usual bright reds, corals, pinks.

Nails Inc, one of the Victoria Beckham ones. The pale pink.

Can't remember the name but it's described as 'bone'. I love it.

Rouge noir or a decent dupe. If I get a shellac in that kind of colour I don't have to worry as it looks good with anything I wear.

I am a fan of Tickle My Francey or a similar nude mushroomy pink too.

Shellac Romantique, cityscape and gotcha are the three I seem to rotate between. I drive the nail lady nuts, she seems to think everyone wants sparkle Hmm.

Boring snoring Essie Ballet Slippers. Just evens everything out and freshens it up.
