Thoughts from the Dirty City

By this point we all know I have a kind of fetish when it comes to OPI nail polish. What you might not know is that I am almost equally obsessed with checking out fashion shows. Unlike OPI, you aren’t going to find any Anna Sui in my closet but it isn’t for lack of want. So when I heard that the new OPI line was an homage to the French Couture lines I couldn’t get to the store fast enough. So fast in fact that I bought before I blogged.

Once at the store I was faced with the dilemma of choosing a color. I knew what my favorite was right off the bat, but I was enamored with all the new colors. My first choice was a no brainer:

aptly named You Don’t Know Jacques. I am already wearing it and loving it. But I think I might have to go back and pick up the little sampler pack of these colors:

Names (from left to right) WE’LL ALWAYS HAVE PARIS – PARLEZ-VOUS OPI? – LOUVRE ME LOUVRE ME NOT

I love all of these colors, but I don’t think they are colors that would become staples for me, where You Don’t Know Jacques may just replace Lincoln Park After Dark as my go-to  color. The nice thing about the sampler pack is that you get three colors (as well as a top coat) for the price of one. Granted each bottle is only big enough for maybe three applications. But I think that would be enough to get me through till the next new line.

The only part that is really hard for me is the timing. It is still summer and I was just gifted a new bottle from one of the summer lines. Looks like I will just have to start changing my nail color a lot more often to keep up with my growing collection.

If you want to learn more about OPI visit the website. It is super fun, they even have a new video to promote the new France line.
