Today, I would like to share with you the 3 new shades in the OPI Miss Universe 2013 Collection.

I’m salivating over the purples! (Someone may need to mop the floor because it could make someone slip, slide, and do a pirouette right into the Helmer filled with nail polishes! Yes, apparently accidents can be very elaborate…and worthy of a judges’ score of 10!)

You get a special collectible ring with the matte platinum shade, and that polish features a new satin finish!

Okay, so it’s just September, but I already have a holiday collection preview for you!

It’s the OPI Mariah Carey Holiday Collection, which is scheduled to be released in October.

Holiday collections are some of my favourites because they always have a lot of great colour choices, and the names are so festive!

I’m a fan of classic Mariah. She has the voice to sing like a bird, and her love ballads bring out the mushball in me. 😉

I also like how she’s evolved over the years. Although her current songs are very different than the ones from her Emotions or Daydream albums, I still find myself enjoying a lot of her tunes.

I put together a fun little collage of the polishes. Do any of these catch your eye?

P.S. Please remember to vote for me in the nail-art competition by clicking “Like” on Facebook on my manicure photo here. I’d really appreciate your vote to take me to the top! And please let your friends know so that they can also vote!

As promised, here is blog post 3 of 3 for today showing OPI at NYFW for Spring 2014.

This time, you’ll get a brief glimpse into OPI for the Hervé Léger show where OPI Barre My Soul was used on the nails.

I don’t have that nail polish, but it looks very soft and natural. I can see why they went with it, so as not to distract from the clothing.

The OPI PR team sent me an entire schedule of the shows that OPI would be making an appearance. There are several more, and when I receive more information, I’ll be sure to share it with you.

Hope you’re liking these fun little NYFW posts. I think it’s a nice change from my usual blog posts, although tomorrow, I’ll be back to reviewing a nail polish! 🙂

As you may know, New York Fashion Week (NYFW) is alive and kicking!

I’ve received a few press releases with photos regarding OPI during NYFW for Spring 2014, and, although it’s a little different than my reviews on Swatch And Learn, I’m going to show you because I think it’s really neat to see nail polish in action on the runway.

This post features OPI for BCBGMAXAZRIA and Candela!

I’ve scheduled 3 blog posts to go live for today, so check back again later for more exciting snapshots and information about how OPI made their mark on NYFW for Spring 2014!

Note: All photos are courtesy of OPI. The collage photos were put together by me.
