My favorite nail polish colors are two extremes: a dark purple and a pale pink. I think it is too early to bust out my OPI lincoln park after dark/lincoln park after midnight, although I really want to!
OPI miami beet from the southbeach collection.
{update: I did not take the picture up above. I found it somewhere...not, sure where. My nails never look that good when I paint them!}
It's not a bright summer pink, but not a dark goth purple either. It is the perfect shade for this in between color time. I havent' worn it on my fingernails yet, but it looks great on my tootsies!
I am wearing this color on my fingernails right now.
Sally Hansen Insta-dri petal pusher.
After reading so much about this new polish I had to check it out. It has a fantastic brush and dries really fast! I hope they come out with even more colors in this formula, because it is great!
I topped both of these colors off with this.
It is a clear polish and gives a lot of shine, plus helps dry faster.
I love having my fingernails painted, but I wish it lasted longer. If only I could talk Ty into letting me get weekly manicures! I don't see that happening anytime soon!
So glad you liked it!
ReplyDeleteooo I love that color!
ReplyDeleteBoth of those colors are my absolute favorite! If only my mani wouldn't chip ... Pedi stays on forever!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I *LOVE* the OPI South Beach collection! I have been rocking "OPI on Collins Avenue" on my toes ALL summer. :)
ReplyDeleteI love getting pedicures! I rarely get manicures because the polish chips off so quickly. I need to be better about keeping them painted myself because they always look better painted! Love the color :)
ReplyDeletethat color is beautiful! perfect for the end of summer / starting fall :)
ReplyDeletexoxo
I am in love with that color and the name - Miami Beet! How great! Your nails look fab!
ReplyDeleteHa! The first color matches the color of your sidebars!! :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!!
I love that new color! Thanks for sharing...I will definitely have to try it out :)
ReplyDeleteI will be picking this color up today.....LOVE!
ReplyDeleteoooh, i do love that color!! Just last week I went for a mani/pedi and busted out my Black Cherry Chutney! I can't help it.. Once it feels like Fall, I have to do the dark colors!
ReplyDeleteI love that color! And I definitely need to get my nails done for this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way I'm either dark pink or light pink. But I was a rebel and got light pink on my nails and a red on my toes. Big time rebel! hahahaha! I usually hate when I don't match.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I am not looking forward to the dark colors, besides grey..I really want grey nails!
Pretty color! I have that in one of those small 4 packs, but haven't used it.
ReplyDeleteLove that Insta-Dri Topcoat - makes my polish last all week!
Lincoln Park After Dark is a great color. My very favorite OPI color is Russian Navy, but I feel funny wearing it to work, so I usually only wear it in the winter and when I'm going to be off for a few days.
I just got a pedicure the other day, and since it's September, which screams FALL to me, I got a really cool dark purple with some iridescence. Who cares that it's still 90+ degrees? It's September! LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty color..similar to what I got, but mine is somewhat darker.
I love OPI Heart Throb. Its a warm, pale pink. It reminds me of when you get pink and white acrylic nails. I def need to try these colors!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in the Petal Pusher! Its actually sitting on my desk in front of me right now!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't wait to bust out my Lincoln Park After Dark and Mrs. O'Leary's BBQ... even though Evs calls it my "goth" look!
Wow Miami Beat might just be replacing my beloved OPI Dutch Tulips. Question though - is it shimmery or more creamy?? I need to look it up!!
ReplyDeleteI like that pink!
ReplyDeleteI've heard people talk about Miami Beet, but I haven't seen it yet. Love it! I want to make a stop on my way home today to pick up a bottle. If you can convince Ty to let you get weekly manicures, please share the trick!
ReplyDeleteLove that color! And I totally thought those were your nails! Ha!
ReplyDeleteI am loving miami beet! I need to get me some!!
ReplyDeleteSeptember is a hard month for nailpolish. You're right, I think it's too early for my dark browns. I love your current color. I'll have to get a bottle.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shade!
ReplyDeleteIts soooo hot, still, ugh, but I've already started wearing the fall colors. Love this color!
ReplyDeleteI love OPI, and their seasonal colors are always so fun!
ReplyDeleteI love OPI Miami Beet! It's such a perfect shade!!
ReplyDeleteI love the OPI color! I think I will have to purchase some tomorrow!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the first color and I am wearing the second! You should try Sally Henson's nail pens. They are awesome. They make painting your nails so easy and they dry quick too!
ReplyDeleteI love OPI! Such pretty colors, fun names, and good quality!!
ReplyDeleteOoo! I love the color!! Looks great!! I wish I could weekly mani's also...but hubby isn't too kean on the idea, eithere
ReplyDeleteOh you make me want to go get a mani and pedi!
ReplyDeleteFun colors!
Just another example of how I am not girly, I never paint my nails, and if I do they are chipped the next day.
ReplyDeleteWow, that new Miami Beet color is gorgeous, I might have to check that out!
ReplyDeleteCute! Pink is always my choice when I get my nails done. I cannot go any other shade -- well, red, but that's just dark pink anyway. I'm blog hopping tonight. I usually hang with the sewing/crafty crowd, but a new reader/customer led me to her blog land of fashionistas and sassy preppy ladies. It's been fun, but I think this is my last stop!

I just tried the Sally Hansen Insta Dri and I love it! It dried before I had a chance to goof it up! Thanks for the recommendation.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if I just got a bad bottle of that Insta-Dri polish, because I bought some, that exact same color, and it was thick and goopy and didn't go on well at all.
