While I was out and about searching for the perfect brush the other day, I was distracted by shiny little bottles of nail polish. I walked into the beauty supply store and the overwhelmingly stocked wall of O.P.I. had me at "hello". I have been searching for a color similar to something that Kelly Ripa wore a few months ago on "Live With Regis and Kelly" but I have been very unsuccessful ever since. It was very neutral and fit in just right with my obsession with anything blush-hued.
"You Don't Know Me Jacques" is the next best thing to the color that Miss Ripa had on. It is a little bit gray with a hint of brown and just a dash of purple - and it is matte and kind of looks like dried mud!!! Kelly had on something much lighter than this color that I found, but there was something so similar between the two that I simply had to have this nail color.
My purchase may have been somewhat of an impulsive act, but I did get a great deal onthree O.P.I. nail polishes. Not only did I find something intriguing and versatile, but I replenished my favorite color, "My Chihuahua Bites". I spent $18.50 for one bottle of matte finish polish, regular polish, and received a free nail base polish because I already had two nail polishes.
With a change in nail color brings a new attitude to your wardrobe and your style. Spicing up the cold weather can be as easy as opening an $8 bottle of nail polish that will last longer than you would believe. The best part about investing in something like O.P.I. nail polish, is that you can give yourself your own manicure whenever you please at a very Fashion, Friendly & Frugal price.
