Is it worth it?

This is OPI It's Totally Fort Worth It from the Texas collection, 4 coats. 3 coats was enough but I didn't have time to take pictures when I did the manicure and got some smudges so I did a fourth coat before I took these pictures just to cover the smudges. I've seen this described as a light grey but to me it's more of a medium mushroom-y grey that looks a little lilac in some lights. It has small pink flecks and sparse blue glitter (as you can see in the close up). Since this polish is frosty, it does leave some brush strokes but I don't think it's terrible streaky. The flecks/glitter is beautiful in close ups but barely visible when looking at your hands at a distance and I did have VNL at two coats. I don't know if this is worth three or four coats, what do you think?

    Not a bad shade but... The whole Texas collection is such a snore to me.

    It's ok but not a super color.

    Actually I would store it in the trash bin, tragically ugly. Great swatches though!

    This looks like a lighter version of RBL's Anne.

    That is a lot greener than I expected based on the few bottle pics I've seen.

    I think the color is ok, I don't love it but I don't hate it. It was less green and more grey at two coats and the afternoon sun enhanced the green in the color!

    The polish looks slightly green on my monitor, too; your pictures are nice but I find this color awful...
