Euro Centrale is OPI’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection, inspired by the clash of classic architecture and modern art in four Central European countries – Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Romania . It’s got a bunch of cremes, with a few shimmers and a glitter topper thrown in. I’ve swatched three of the shades from the collection: OPI… Eurso Euro is a …
The theme this week is indie, but since I’m away, I thought I’d just post some swatches of Gloss ‘n Sparkle, Emily de Molly, Femme Fatale and Pretty Serious instead of attempting nail art. Gloss ‘n Sparkle Witches Britches – purple crelly with three sizes of black, jade and orange glitter. This was a Halloween limited edition polish, and it’s …

Can’t Let Go when glossy has so much added depth. It’s …
