OPI — "New York City Ballet" SoftShades Collection

in ,

Bonjour!

Former ballerinas and elegant ladies rejoice! OPI's got six new additions to their SoftShades lineup, inspired by the New York City Ballet (NYCB). [Not to be confused with the American Ballet Academy where Jodi, Eva and Maureen danced their days away. Come on, I know you were thinking of Center Stage.]

The New York City Ballet collection includes five new sheers: beige, pink, white, lilac and gray, plus a silver hex-glitter.

OPI's SoftShades line is not something I'm that familiar with since, as you know, "soft" is not an adjective used to describe my nailz too often. But even your wildest polishaholic has special occasions (weddings? interviews? televised trial? marrying Prince William?) when subtle color is the way to go.

I think "My Pointe Exactly" is probably my fav. Which colors are you guys liking best?

Essie — A Crewed Interest & Luxeffects

in , , ,

Essie's spring collection is now available! Honestly, they can do no wrong.  Without a doubt, Essie is my favorite line of nail polish.  Their colors are gorgeous and unique; in the color department, Essie takes the cake.  Their application is flawless.  Their knack for fashion is on point.

Needless to say their spring collection is gorgeous....just as I suspected!

I haven't purchased the whole collection yet, but a couple colors have graced my stashed, including Navigate Her and A Crewed Interest.

Thus far, I am in love with A Crewed Interest!

I am always hunting for the perfect pale pink; one that is not too sheer or streaky; one that has me gawking at it and commenting aloud to myself, "damn, I love this color."

True story.  Ask any of my friends.

Well, A Crewed Interest is it!  A gorgeous pale pink, with a slight touch of peach in it....

Then I gave this pink a beautiful shimmer with Essie's Luxeffects in Shine Of The Times....a polish I had been hemming and hawing over for weeks until I commited to its purchase.

And boy and I glad I did!

The Luxeffects gives a very sbutle sparkle that changes color in the light, from an orangey pink to gold and to green, sure to make you stare at your nails in the sunlight all day!  Interested to see how luxeffects looks over other nail polish colors....

XOXO, Varnish
