The first Femme Fatale lacquer that caught my eye was A tisket, a tasket. And for good reason!
A tisket, a tasket is a sheer soft minty green shimmer with green, aqua, pastel blue and green and pink glitter. On its own you need about 3 layers for semi-decent coverage but it ends up looking quite bumpy and messy with all that glitter. I opted to layer it over Mount Yu which is very nearly the same shade of green. I used 2 layers for a good dispersion of glitter, then topped it with 1 layer of Aqua Daisy Glitter Gloss for a glassy finish.
I freaking LOVE LOVE LOVE the way ATAT looks!!! The formula isn't the amazing, but it's not a PITA either. I definitely think it looks best layered over a base though and this would be killer for Easter or Spring!
I also love it because A tisket, a tasket is the name of a Gilmore Girls episode where the men of Star's Hollow bid on picnic baskets made by the women and win a date with the lady who made the basket! Lorelei begs Luke to bid on her's and Jess outbids Dean for Rory's. And I always envisioned (and still do) those two couples ending up together! Come on Gilmore Girls film or reunion show with Lorelei and Luke married with babies preparing for Jess and Rory's wedding!!!!! Hmmm, that would be the very best ending for GG!
