First Day at Work: Essie Lady Like

After some deliberation, I figured out which nail colour to wear to my first day of my new job! (Tomorrow!) I'm going to go with Essie Lady Like...

Lady Like is a really special shade. In the soft light of morning (which is when I took these pictures), it looks rather lilac. In the afternoon sun, it becomes more of a warmer nude-mauve. I first posted about it here when it was first released in 2011 (so much time has passed!! eek!) and at the time I wasn't sure about it. Right now, I'm loving it. It's neutral enough for colour-phobic me, but has enough of a hue to make me feel like I'm actually participating in spring! (Look, I'm even wearing a floral ring - who am I!? This one is from Henri Bendel. I love them for accessories and you can find the ring in various colours here.) 

I'm a bit nervous about my first day. I think it's a good nervous though - I feel like the next part of my life is starting, and I've waited and worked for so long to make it happen! Fingers crossed that I don't majorly screw up though!

What are some of your favourite polishes to wear to work?
