Nicole OPI: Alex By The Books

Today I have another Nicole by OPI polish to share from the Modern Family Collection called Alex by the Books.  I don't watch the show, so I'm not sure how the colour relates to the character it is named after.  I had bought this shortly after "Stand by your Manny", but I swatched this much later in March and did not have a chance to put it up until now. 


Thoughts
The polish itself is pretty thin, I used three coats in order to get it to be opaque.  I do like this colour but I'm not sure if I like the fact that it took three thin coats to make it opaque.  

Breakdown
Base coat: Nicole by OPI Base Coat Plus
Colour Coat: Nicole by OPI Alex By The Books (3 coats)
Top coat: Nicole by OPI Top Coat Plus








I bought Alex By The Books at Wal-mart for $9.68.  Lately I've noticed that the Selena Gomez and Modern Family colours are back at Shoppers Drug Mart.  When there are sales, these can be a pretty good deal.
