OPI Animal-Istic

Good afternoon! What are you up to on this Sat? I just woke up from a quick nap, and will be getting ready to go to a football game shortly. :-)

I have on OPI Animal-Istic today, which is another polish from the Muppet collection. This is a great bright red, with a touch of orange. It also has glass flecks in it. It reminds me of China Glaze Cherry Pie and/or Raspberry Festival. Same kind of finish. I didn't have any application problems at all, and I used two coats. If you are a red lover like I am, this polish is for you. ;-)









Close Up.



Animal thanks you for reading! ;-) Have a great night! :-)

OPI Warm & Fozzie.

Happy Friday!!! I'm SO glad it's the weekend! Do you have any fun plans? We have several fun fall things going on this weekend. Tomorrow night, we're going to a college football game. Then on Sunday, we're going to a fall festival at a Cider Mill. They make yummy cider donuts, and of course, apple cider. After that, we're going to another fall festival at a winery. They make a special apple wine for this time of the year. I'm also going to go see my horse sometime this weekend. :-)

Today I have on OPI Warm & Fozzie which is another polish from the Muppet collection. This one did not fail. :-) I know the Muppet collection is a Holiday/Winter collection, but it has quite a few great fall colors. Warm & Fozzie is one of them. I am loving this color. It's a brown/copper color with pink micro glitter. Application was great, and I used three coats.







Close Ups....these pics. remind me of a pile of leaves. :-)





Fozzie bear thanks you for looking! ;-)

A Holiday polish turns into a Halloween Mani....OPI Pepes Purple Passion, plus black glitter & moons.

Okay....I'm going to try this for the fourth time. Ugh. I don't know what's going on, but I've typed this post four times, gotten to the end, and it just deletes completely. Sooo annoying.

I had my first Muppet fail today. :-( Ha, Ha....I guess that sound kinda funny, if you don't know what I'm talking about, doesn't it? I'm sure most of you know, I'm talking about the OPI Holiday collection. I had high hopes for this polish. It's super pretty in the bottle, and I love the name. It was an absolute mess to apply though. Somehow, it is thick, yet runny at the same time. I know that doesn't make a lot of sense, but I'm not sure how else to describe it. It's like it's really thick half way down the brush, and then it gets runny. Really strange. I don't know if I just got a bad bottle or what.

Pepes Purple Passion is a deep purple with glass flecks. I used two coats, but should have used one, since the formula was so messy. I somehow thought using the second coat would help. It didn't. I decided I didn't want to take the polish off, so I added a coat of LA Girl Uninhibited, which is small, round black glitter, and black hex glitter. Then I added a polish I picked up in a three back at Marshall's. The brand is called Color Zone, and it's made my Bluecross Beauty. The same brand that makes the cute little pumpkin polishes. The polish I used, doesn't have a name. I LOVE it though. It has med. sized round holo glitter, and holo moon shapes. I could star at the bottle all day! LOL!

I'm going to show you the pics. of the finished mani. first, and then OPI Pepes Purple Passion.





A couple of close up's...

It really doesn't look so bad in the pics. I guess. It was just such a mess. Who knows, maybe I'll give it another chance sometime. ;-)

OPI Designer...De Better! Plus LA Girl Flamboyant

Good evening! I have another polish from the OPI Muppet collection to show you. This one is called Designer...De Better! This polish is a metallic silver foil, with small copper and pink flecks. I have absolutely nothing like this in my collection at all. Not even close, so I'd say it's pretty unique. ;-) Application was great. I was really surprised, as some metallic finishes tend to have brush stroke issues. This one did not. It applied very smoothly. I used two thick coats.

You def. might want to click on these, to see the copper flecks better. ;-)









Here are a couple of close up's...The first one is in the sun, and the second in the shade.





I decided to put one coat of LA Girl Flamboyant over Designer...De Better. Flamboyant is a burnt orange glitter in a clear base. It has small pieces of glitter, and also hex glitter.



Thanks so much for reading, and I hope you are having a great night! :-)

OPI Excuse Moi!

Good evening! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty good, and thankfully non eventual! LOL! I need some down time. I spent some time yesterday afternoon, decorating for Halloween. I sooo love this time of year! It's my fav. :-) I've also been working on a polish room, and worked on that yesterday. My husband even helped out with that for awhile. I can't wait until it's done. I'll have to post pics.

I ended up wearing Meep-Meep-Meep all weekend. I am loving the OPI Muppets collection. Today I'm wearing Excuse Moi! I LOVE this polish! I think I might need to get a back up. It's a pink base with teal,green,silver,gold,pink and orange glitter. This might be one of my favs. of the collection. Application was great, and I used two coats. I could have gotten away with one thick coat though.

It was a bit of a rainy day, so no true sun pics. but I think they came out pretty well. Hopefully. ;-)











Thanks for looking! I hope you are having a good night! I'm off to walk the dogs, and then bed. :-)

OPI Muppets....Meep-Meep-Meep!

Happy Saturday!! Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? I'm not sure what we're going to do, but clean today. Fun, fun! LOL! I'm okay with that. It's been such a stressful, nerve wracking week for me. I just hope it's a uneventful weekend here.

I have the first of the OPI Muppet collection to show you today! I was at the mall Thurs. night, and as I was walking past JcPenny I spotted a full untouched Muppets display! I was so excited! LOL! I grabbed nine of them. I got a really good deal too. They were buy 2 get 1 free. Plus, I had two $10 off of $20 coupons to use. They let me use both! I actually had to get four one night, and go back yesterday to get the other five. For some odd reason, they won't sell you more than four polishes at a time. Isn't that odd? I found it to be really strange. Has anyone else run into that? If you have more than one form of payment you can two two different transactions. I don't know Just seems strange to me.

Today, I have on Meep-Meep-Meep which is a fuchsia pink with glass flecks throughout it. Application was awesome! It applied really well, and dried super fast. I used two coats. The Muppet collection is OPI's Holiday 2011 collection, which I'm sure most of you already know. ;-)









Thanks so much for looking, and I hope you have a wonderful Saturday! :-)
