Maybelline came out with its "Color Show Polka Dots" line in July of this year. I took advantage of a sale at RiteAid and picked up "Clearly Spotted" (impulsively of course) which is the only polish in this line with a clear base. With a black and white mix of hex and circle shaped glitter, this is a perfect layering polish.
I'm not a big fan of clear polish over bare nails so I took the opportunity to bring out OPI's "My Pointe Exactly" to serve as a base.
I love how this polish gives my nails a Jackson Pollock rather than a dalmatian look. Having the translucent, barely-there blue base color really makes the white and black stand out. The clear gel was easy to apply and the balance of black, white, large hex, and small circle glitter is perfect for a great contrast.
This pairing is possibly a little too adventurous for the office, but who doesn't test the boundaries once in a while?
