A Butterfly Moment and Pink Yet Lavender from OPI Mariah Carey Collection


I bought these two shades because they look good together but I think I'll get a lot more wear out of the golden nude-pink shade (A Butterfly Moment). I found Pink Yet Lavender to be a very standard chunky, multi-color glitter shade and I'm sure I could find a close match for much less. But I wanted to try them together in a glitter gradient and I like the way it came out—this will definitely be my New Year's Eve mani!

Sephora by OPI What Film Noir You In?


If you're in the mood for vibrant gemtones here's a shimmery fuschia that will make your nails glow for the holidays. While I was looking at the Sephora by OPI display in the store I saw a picture of this shade layered over another shade I recently posted about here, Here's Lilac In' At You, Kid. I would never have thought of doing this but I gave it a try at home and I'm very happy with the results! Thanks Sephora!

Sephora by OPI It's All About Me


My favorite nail model Aryana is back and here she is wearing the smoking hot pink shade It's All About Me. Sephora describes it as muted hot pink—I would describe it as a classic Barbie pink.  Loving this for Valentine's Day or just for any day!

Emerald Green Accessories


Sigh of relief...tangerine is over. Pantone has chosen the shade Pantone 17-5641 Emerald as its color of the year for 2013. I would describe the shade as somewhere between kelly green, teal and gorgeous. Expect the color to be ubiquitous in spring collections everywhere. Meanwhile you can start the trend early with these emerald accessories.
