Aly's Dream Polish Blues- Blue Lapis, Dark Midnight Blue, Deep Steel Blue, Duchess Blue, Light Sky Blue, Steel Blue

SO, I may or may not have bought over 25 polishes in Aly's last restock...which makes for lots of pictures for you. I tried to separate them into color categories as best I could, but there was a little fudging.
Anyway, this first post (of five) is of all the blues from this haul.
You can find post number 2 with all the purples HERE.
Post number 3 with pinker shades HERE.
Post number 4 with greens (and Silver) HERE.

First up is Blue Lapis. A tiny bit brighter and lighter than Sapphire, this true blue shade is stunning.
