a lacquered leading lady

e s s i e    w e i n g a r t e n

In 1981, one woman's ambitious dreams of success took her to the sensational streets of sinful, lustful Las Vegas. However, this woman had no intention of lacing herself into a crystallized boustier or feathered headdress and parading around on stage for all to see. 
No, no - This woman had a secret weapon that would skyrocket her to the top of the scene; a secret weapon that would spark conversation and intrigue across the globe. 
That secret weapon? A twelve piece, self made, nail polish collection in highly original and fiercely controversial colours. Thirty years later, her Empire leaves women everywhere yearning for more and desiring her latest luscious shades. Now, with a global market spanning from North America to England and Japan, she has conquered the world one perfectly polished nail at a time. 

Ladies…
Essie Weingarten.
This is a self made woman. A classic tale of determination, hard work and perseverance. 
(And looking fabulous the whole while.)

In honour of the woman who continues to bring us such fantastic hues like, Turquoise in Caicos, Pound Cake, Fiji Pink, and Smokin' Hot, I've put together a few of my all time favourite spring inspired Essie polishes.
Enjoy!
