NOTD: OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow


Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow is part of OPI's Spain collection for fall 2009. I was unsure about it when I first put it on, but guess what? It's actually noticeabley green, dark enough to be sophisticated but green enough to be a bit edgy without a fungus tinge. LOVE it. My only green I think that I'll be wearing.

What do you think? Will you be wearing green this season?

NOTD: Black and Red

This was my first time ever doing a bi-color nail! I used:

OPI Natural Nail Base Coat
OPI Black Onyx (for black, 2 coats)
Essie E! Live from the red carpet (for red, 2 coats)

I think I didn't do too bad for my first time, but definetly could use improvement, especially compared to the ladies over on MakeupAlley's nail board!


NOTD: Pink and Purple Glitter



For this NOTD, I used:

OPI Natural Nail Base Coat
OPI Black Onyx as base color (1 coat)
Shiseido Integrate RS361 nail polish (1 coat on top of OPI)

Here's how it turned out :)

NOTD: OPI It's All Greek To Me

I loove OPI, but some of the pinks just don't work for me (pretty much everything, like Arose at Dawn, broke by noon, the pales, medium pinks, etc). Well, I finally found a pink I like!! And the finish is beautiful and doesn't chip for at least 4 days. I'm happy!





I think this pic shows it the best:

Nails: OPI My Private Jet

Here's yet another nail of the day! It's my first Holo (short for holographic I think, meaning it flashes rainbow for those who don't know). I really love it, and am definetly checking out more holos--my eye is on those China Glaze ones. As usual, this one lasts at least 1 1/2 weeks on me and 3 or more on my toes with base/top coat. Great value. The color isn't so much black as a gunmetal gray base with all the rainbowy goodness.

See pics!





Available for 8$ at ULTA, Sally's and nail salons around you.

Some Nail Polish! OPI Monsooner Or Later, from the India Collection



Hi all! I haven't been really focusing on the other part of fashion I love--nail polish!! This is a gorgeous shade perfect for summer, a great red-orange. Released Spring 2008 in the India Collection, it's a real winner. It's different from all my reds! However, for those shy of brights this is not for you! It's loud and obnoxious and begs to be noticed! (Perfect for me hehe!) Sorry for the foot pics too, but it's great as a pedi.





The shoes are Burberry wedges by the way, got them at an amazing sale! Very Naughtical no?
