Chevrons with some China Glaze On Safari colours

Originally, I only bought one colour, Exotic Encounters, from the On Safari collection, but after Whitney's influence (good for me, bad for my wallet) at Dressed Up Nails, I just had to go out and buy a couple more. I came back with Elephant Walk (not used here), Kalahari Kiss, and I'm Not Lion. I knew I wanted to use the glitter in a Chevron pattern, but I couldn't decide on a colour combination. So I kind of just went for it and did them all. They kind of remind me of patterns on Christmas ornaments! Please forgive the streaks on my thumb and index, my Seche Vite was not happy about getting red in it.

On my right hand, I used the glitter on the tips instead (except for my thumb and ring accents).

Polishes:
Left to right: China Glaze "I'm Not Lion", "Exotic Encounters", "Kalahari Kiss", American Apparel "Berry"
Help me out ladies, which combination do you like best? Do you like this skittles Chevron look, or would one combination as a full mani be better? I seriously love these colours (especially the glitter!) and I can't wait to do more designs with them! Have a great weekend!
