New favorite.....p.s. I'm Back!

So, I know that I haven't blogged in forever, but in my absence I did earn my Bachelor's degree! I have to admit that with all this time on my hands, I am quite bored. But that means I have more time to blog!!! I did do some remodeling to the site (I hope you like). 

OPI recently released the Pirates of the Caribbean Collection (May 2011). I must admit that I was not ecstatic about this collection when I originally seen the pictures, but now that I own the collection I am in love. I own four of the six colors in the collection (not including the silver shatter). I am in love and I will post swatches of them soon. But my favorite is the highly anticipated color, Mermaid Tears. When I look at the color all I can think of the color sea green like the Crayola crayon. This color can definitely work on many skin colors and tones. I think I prefer it on medium skin tones, but it is dusty enough not to wash out lighter skin tones. 

I used an accent color on my ring finger, OPI Bring on the Bling from the Burlesque Collection.

OPI's Pirate of the Caribbean

I haven't blogged in a while, I've been super busy with school...but I have so much to share! The forth Pirates of the Caribbean film is being released in May 2011, and OPI is making a collection in celebration for the release of the movie. The release date has not been set yet for the collection, actually word about the collection is not even supposed to be released yet. Here's pics, names, and descriptions...!

Silver Shatter!!! Black Shatter has taken off and everyone has been requesting Shatter in a different color, and now there's silver!

Steady as She Rose

A very light pink

Sparrow Me The Drama

A smoky-purple pink

Mermaid Tears

Light Pastel Seagreen

Scull and Glossbones

Pearly White Shimmer

Planks A Lot

A Pastel Muted Purple

I definitely was not expecting pastel colors for Pirates of the Caribbean, but I love the names! The pastels in the collection will look great for spring, hopefully it will be released early enough before it more appropriate for bright summer shades.
