Essie Brooch the Subject with OPI Pink Shatter

Hello Ladies!  Hope you all are doing well.  My job week was hectic.  But I still managed to find some time to do a mani.  In Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Susan G. Komen for the Cure, OPI recently dropped their Pink Shatter.  It's a limited edition and its awesome!  I myself am a HUGE shatter, crackle, or whatever they wan to call it, fan.  I think it adds a special touch to any mani.  And all my nails look different each time I apply.  So I decided to use Essie and OPI pink shatter together,  and I am so glad I did because this mani rocks!  OPI Pink Shatter is a frosty medium pink color. Brooch the Subject is a light khaki nude creme, I am sucker for nude creme polish.  I wore it alone for two days and decided to throw the pink shatter on the spice it up.  Here is Brooch the Subject alone, 2coats:

such a lovely nude

Thanks for Viewing!

NOTD: Crown Me with Wet Cement.................

Happy Monday ladies!  As I have mentioned in previous posts,  I am in LOVE with OPI Crown Me Already.  I want to put it with everything,  but I can't! (why not?)  I was in a grey polish mood,  but couldn't stop looking at my OPI CMA bottle,  so I said "let me layer it" for better removing purposes!  I used Sally Hansen Wet Cement,  2 coats.  And then Applied one coat of CMA.  LOVED it!  I had disco ball nails and a ton of compliments! Enjoy!

Thanks For Viewing! And Thank you to all my subbies!

Crown me, I'm a lady!

Hello Ladies!  Starbucks is my new best friend! I have been shopping lately.  Not for clothes but my third best thing.........Polish.  I saw some color from Essie that gave me a funny tingling feeling.  Which meant my pockets would suffer.  So I purchased Essie Lady Like and Power Clutch.  Lady like is different,  but honestly I feel like it's a color my mom would like (and that's not good because she sticks to the same colors year after year).  It appears pink in the bottle,  but comes off mauve in real nail life.  I have to try it again to see if it will grow on me.  But I decided to shake it up by adding OPI's Crown me Already to add some life to it!  OPI Crown Me Already is a HOT glitter polish! Chunky and micro combined!  I am looking forward to all the glitter polish in the Muppets collection.  Hope you like it! 2 coats of each!  Enjoy!

Thanks for Viewing! 

OPI Muppets 2011 Collection!!!

This holiday season, OPI pays homage to America’s favorite Muppet friends as they hit the big screen in Disney’s The Muppets.  With an all-star cast including Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Chris Cooper, Kermit, Miss Piggy and the entire Muppet crew, the family comedy opens in theaters nationwide on November 23, 2011. 

Inspired by the film’s namesake lively and colorful characters, OPIlaunches twelve limited-edition Nail Lacquers for Holiday 2011. “OPI is so excited to work with Disney to celebrate this long-awaited movie release,” said Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director.  “Not only do The Muppets characters inspire fun, bright and joyful colors, the fashionable Miss Piggy lends her name to three high-shine pink-based hues, ranging from bold red flecked with silver to a multi-dimensional strawberry shade.”

This line features six shimmery reds and neutrals, as well as six glitter-packed shades, including:

 

 Animal-istic
This wild bright red cannot be tamed!

Meep-Meep-Meep
Missing out on this fuchsia would make you weep, weep, weep!

Wocka Wocka!
The popular deep berry makes everything fun and merry!

Pepe’s Purple Passion
This deep, decadent shade is the best purple ever, okay!

Designer, de Better! 
And this light metallic bronze is ready for the runway.

Warm & Fozzie
A feel-good shade of metallic copper.

Rainbow Connection
The rainbow glitter of your dreams.

Excuse Moi! 
Ahem! This pink glitter has something to say!

Gone Gonzo!

A glitter that prefers the greener things in life.

Divine Swine
The finest, most fabulous magenta glitter ever.

Gettin’ Miss Piggy With It!
Red glittery fun for everyone!

Lacquer packed with micas and sparkle gives a 3-dimensional textured look that makes nails look like jewelry.

ABOUT THE MOVIE

On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world's biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets' former stomping grounds. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in aSanta Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate. With secret, signature, celebrity cameos, Disney’s “The Muppets” hits the big screen Nov. 23, 2011. 

Gone Gonzo and Rainbow Collection are calling me! So excited, please don't disappoint! What color are you loving?

Nubbies! China Glaze "shower together" and broken nail story
