As a lifetime nailbiter, I find myself getting constant manicures just to prevent my finger tips from looking like gnarled, peeling numbs. Since I have picked up this manicure habit, I have fallen head over heels with O.P.I. Nail Color. The names are funky and there is a shade for every mood or occasion.

  1. Bubble Bath: This is the shade I wore on my wedding day. The perfect neutral pink to make you look like you have perfect nails without even trying.
  2. Lincoln Park at Midnight: My perfect funky fall color for when I’m feeling a little RockStarish. Its a deep, deep burgundy purple and cool as a fan.
  3. Vodka & Caviar: Sassy red for when I want to bring out my inner pin up girl.
  4. Mod About You: This is a lighter, whiter based neutral pink, but it’s a little more funky because it is shockingly lighter than my chalk-like fair complexion.
  5. You Don’t Know Jacques!: This is my newest shade in rotation, from the Frances Collection. I wanted something neutral, but not pink. I get so many compliments on this shade when I wear it…it’s kind of a brownish taupe-gray.

For The Holiday season I think I’m going to go with 6. Smitten with Mittens or           7. Sapphire in the Snow. What’s your favorite O.P.I. shade?

These colors are so great..I’m thinking I need to try “You Don’t Know Jacques.” My favorite color is “Big Apple Red”…It’s the most PERFECT shade of red i’ve come across!

@sarah I use Big Apple Red a lot too! And @der Bubble Bath is my standard I wear all the time.

I’m wearing Smitten with Mittens right now. I love it for the holidays! Just enough glittery goodness without feeling like a teenager. I also love Passion (for the spring) and Midnight in Moscow (for the fall). Is it weird that I am so seasonal with my nail polish? Since Big Apple Red was already mentioned…I gotta give I’ve Got the Blues for Red a mention. It’s another great red, just a bit darker. Love your site!
