^ Thank you! With all the rave reviews I was feeling like I missed out! But Aloha and Paradise are colors I'm not convinced I can pull off, and buying a duo just for the top coat seems silly. I would still like to try it one day. Hopefully they will pair it with a more universally wearable color soon.

Here's a swatch on a blog: http://www.varnishvixen.com/2011/05...paign=Feed:+varnishvixen/RggY+(Varnish+Vixen)
^ Thanks for that! I want Lara's Theme now, I've been really getting into oranges/corals lately...
Ooooh, thanks! I love how shiny it is even without the topcoat - it's exactly what I wanted Aloha to be. I wonder if the application is as great as Yellow Brick Road.
Either way, I'm totally getting it next pay period!
I caved and got Lara's Theme with the 20% off Beauty.com deal. It needs a new home anyways and it will meet many colorful little polish friends and be happy forever after 
(sorry, I'm a bit loopy right now)
If you really really want it then I think you should get it again and save it for weekends or for whenever you don't work. If you think you can pass on it even though you like it, then do that. Lol decisions, decisions...

I think it's perfect for me because it's not another neon orange polish (I already have three), it seems more subdued, unlike Aloha.
I think application is going to be flawless, like most of DL's polishes.
It looks jellyish, like OPI's Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Hear? - I wonder how it compares. Regardless of the color, the formula has got to be better than the OPI - all of those sorbets are so runny.
^^
Interesting. I got Y'all Come Back now awhile ago, but didn't think it was as bright as Lara's theme or Aloha - will go home and see! Too bad your experience with the OPI sorbets was poor. I love that line and haven't had any problems with any of my bottles. I've worn both Aren't you Texy and Guy meet Galveston so far and have liked both of their formulas and had ease with application of both polishes.

I only have Aloha and the OPI, I haven't seen anything but the one swatch of Lara's Theme.
Maybe I just got a bad batch of the OPI sorbets, but every last one of them kept running into my cuticles no matter how thin of a coat I applied.

Hi,
I know some of you have asked about Lara's Theme.
Here it is.
It's def not like OPI's sorbet. It's a thicker creme.
HTH!
Thats a gorgeous color.
