Seaside Glamour:
RETRO SUMMER 2016 BY OPI
OPI rolls out the sweet, insouciant days of summer with six new limited-edition nail lacquers perfect for luxuriating on the French Riviera, vintage-style. The ultimate vacation from drab and dull, the sun- and sky-drenched colours of Retro Summer 2016 channel the throwback fashions that ruled the season’s runways. Think swimsuits with structural silhouettes, crop tops, cut outs, and the return of the waist.
Old school gets a bold, sophisticated twist with this cool assortment of hues. “We’re dreaming of days spent at a seaside resort, with nothing more pressing on the ‘to do’ list than making a splash,” said Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Co-Founder and Brand Ambassador. “From aristocratic soft blue Sailing & Nailing to sizzling red-orange SPF XXX, Retro Summer celebrates the glamour girl in everyone.”
The OPI Retro Summer collection available in both lacquer and matching GelColor formulas, debuts on counter June 1, 2016. The six limited-edition shades include:

Which of these colours screams summer to you the most? If you could add another shade to the OPI Retro Summer 2016 Collection, what would it be? (For me, it would be an avocado green.)
I see several of these that I want to buy, like Sailing and Nailing for one. These are really pretty and bright-perfect for summer. Thanks for giving us the heads up about them. Can’t wait to see your reviews/swatches of this collection.
Hey Melissa!
It’s my pleasure to share fun nail news! Plus thinking of the summer puts me in a great mood.
Thanks for visiting and taking the time to leave a comment. 🙂
I can’t afford to buy full OPI collections, plus I don’t always like all of the colors in one collection, but this one is really, really good!! The colors go so well together, it makes me want to buy all of them and I haven’t even seen any swatches yet!! Can’t wait until you review some of these!
Hey Ariadna!
Very curious to test out the pigmentation and formula on these! 🙂
Thanks for looking, and I hope your weekend is wonderful!
Definitely looking forward to seeing swatches of these! Very fitting for summer.

Hey LemonBerry Blog!
These colours go so nicely together. The only thing I wish is for an avocado, retro green. That would’ve added the cherry on top for me! 😉
These look like such bright, happy summer colors! Can’t wait to see your reviews. I’m particularly curious about Sailing and Nail-ing; it looks light blue in the bottle image, but the round color swatch looks more like mint or Tiffany blue.
Hey Jessica!
They haven’t come in the mail yet, but as soon as they do, I’ll be sure to share swatches of them all! 🙂 Looking forward to doing so.
Beautiful colors. I am anxious to view YOUR swatches! Lucky gal you! Where or where is the green? Cmon OPI – maybe a limited color for this collection? Thanks for showing these Mary.
Hey Grace!
Hehe, I’m right there with you. Green, where are you? 😉
My dream would be an all-green collection. Nubar did one many years ago. They had greens in various tones and finishes. I loved that collection so much! (Of course.)
