Leighton Denny Nail Polish-'Supermodel'

I am in love with my new Leighton Denny nail polish that I got free with this month's Harper's Bazaar. I would go as far as saying that it is my new faviourite shade.

Packaging
I love the simple, sophisticated packaging of this polish. It's practical, allowing you to see the colour of the product perfectly (which is pretty much identical to how it appears on the nails) whilst being stylish. There is also something pretty funky about the transparent lid covering the silver tip. I haven't fiddled around with it enough to work out if this serves a function or is simply for aesthetic purposes. If you have, let me know!
It's also a pretty sizable product, containing 12 ml of polish...hang on, is that the normal amount? Am I being tricked by the extra bit of glass at the bottom...let me check! 

Ok, so Topshop polishes are 8ml, Barry M 10ml and OPI 15ml. So on the larger side! Not at all bad for a freebie! 

Shade 
As  I said at the top of this post, I am in LOVE with this shade. It is a beige/brown shade, which to me works well in summer, spring, winter..basically all year long. It's an everyday shade, and would go with most clothing. For me, nail polishes evoke situations and outfits. For me, this shade is a girl frolicking in the countryside, maybe playing on a tyre swing, wearing a long, flowing white dress and brown sandals. 

Something like this image I found on the interwebz perhaps...

Do you make associations like this, or is it just me? 

Anyway, it's a lovely, solid nail polish that I am happy to now own. Thanks Harpers Bazaar!
