The Golden Afternoon is a glittery metallic yellow gold.

Glossy nail macro.
I really love this polish, I only wish my nails didn't have so many ridges (or that I could find a ridge-filling base that really worked). The polish itself is gorgeous and you'll be a-okay as long as you don't have super ridgey nails like I do!
I love the glittery flakes in this polish! They add such a nice texture to the polish and the metallic-y goodness is like liquid gold!
Matte nail macro.
Eh, this polish is a little....lame with the matte to pcoat. All of the ridges on my nails show and you don't get any of the holographic goodness.
