Truly Bloody - Essie Clutch Me If You Can

Had to get this because of Piff. Had to.

Essie Clutch Me If You Can...


A jelly blood red. Reminds me of something that Pam from True Blood might wear.

I am desperately clutching on to the remains of winter, trying to wear my fav winter polishes, but spring seems like it's approaching all too quickly. What season does it feel like where you are? Is it effecting your polish choices?

  1. That was a VERY blood red. On my nails it's spring most days, not really outside though :)

  2. Pam from True Blood would definitely wear this, I'm sure about that!

    It's already spring here and on my nails it's already summer with a bit of spring mixed in.

  3. I have Essie's Masquerade Belle that looks pretty similar!

  4. Love this one! I am crazy about greens at the moment, so probably ready for spring ;)

  5. I don't have anything like this polish. It looks very pretty on you. I love the idea of dark jellies, but I always use so many coats (to get them perfectly even) that they might as well be a creme by the time I'm done.

    I'm hurriedly working through all my vampies and fall/winter colors before spring starts in earnest. It's been absolutely gorgeous here, so I decided that the official start of spring break would be when I bust out all my new spring untrieds... which is this Friday. I'm pretty excited about trying out all my new Essie and China Glaze lovelies.

  6. yes, I had a fuschia recently and had to remove asap and switch to dark purple. Not ready for spring colors yet - they clash with my pasty skin..

  8. I really liked this when it came out last fall. I hear ya - never enough time to wear all my fav lovlies. The fall ones come out too early and I am in an area that fall does not hit so we hang on to flip flops until Nov. Then it's holiday shades in short order. This yr, after holiday I really went into clean soft shades vs more of what I normally would wear like this shade. Thanks for reminding me how outstanding this shade is.

  9. Love it! Pam from True Blood is such a bad ass.

    The weather is completely Spring-y here right now, but I will wear a vampy red in June if I want to. I just usually don't want to. :)

  10. Lovely color, very chic and feminine. After a few weeks of -20°C, Spring is finally coming and I'm wearing quite a lot of pastels and neutrals, although I tend not to wear colors depending on the season but more on my mood.

  11. Beautiful color ! There is nothing like a gorgeous, classic red on the nails :)

  12. I pretty much wear what I want, when I want. True, in summer I tend to reach for those that are the most fired up by sunlight, but if I get to wanting vamp, vamp it is. Putting on Black Cherry Chutney now.
