Shopping frenzy

On my nails: Dita. Zoya calls it berry-toned; I would call it a very deep rose, myself; but either way it's one of those almost-reds that always intrigue me so much. (I toyed with the idea of keeping the remaining stripes one more day, but the blue was chipping a bit and really the stripes were starting to annoy me. I can only stand to be patriotic for a day or two a year, I guess!)

(Oh, yes: as usual, most Zoya links are affiliate links. Gotta get that disclaimer in there.)

Other linkyness:
Butter London's fall colors (pretty, but nothing's grabbing me as out-of-this-world)
A Zoya blog post about some reds I hadn't paid attention to (although I think Sarah may already be on my wish list) - I'm beginning to think I'm a bit obsessed with reds.

I got an e-mail about BL's fall colors because I ordered from them and then got on their mailing list in the process. I had no business ordering anything that expensive, much less four of them, even if they were having a 30% off sale. I have got to stop this. (Then I did a (small) Llarowe order after that and then yesterday I ordered some more Zoya because of their 4th of July deal. I did refrain from ordering from e.l.f. before their free shipping deal expired at midnight last night, but it was a close thing.)

(I did take a picture of the BL's and whatever else new I had around (that last bunch from the drugstore, I guess, which I have mentioned previously) but it doesn't seem to have made it onto Evernote so I'll have to post that later. I do have the picture I took last week of all my purples but it exhausts me just to look at it so that's going to have to be a post for later on as well.

However, here's some pictures I took in the big HEB at Victory Lakes the other day. It's a bit newer and a bit larger than the one I normally go to, and it has a couple of brands mine doesn't.

Nicka K (I'd never heard of this brand):
(I would have bought a bottle of this to try - it was only $3.99 - but none of these colors really grabbed me. There was a different display down at the bottom of another sidecap that was in too difficult a spot to try to photograph, but it was all pastels, and as we know, pastels are just not me.)

Jordana (maybe I'd vaguely heard of this one):
For some reason I didn't buy any of these either.

LA Girl nail art kits:

And last, for some reason they have a different Orchid display rack than the other location (mostly the same polishes, though):
