I hope everyone's safe and sound from Hurricane Sandy. We're getting some wind and rain but nothing major. What's Sandy doing in your neighbourhood?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">While trying to come up with some creative for a Halloween mani, I came across these little gems.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They're OPI nail decals from last year's Halloween mini collection. The kit included four OPI mini polishes: I Only Date Werewolves, He's My Boo, Mummy Knows Best and a special edition glow in the dark polish Zom-Body To Love (my favourite name so far!). Also included were 5 diffierent nail decals: pumpkin, spider, spiderweb, trick or treat and a bat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The instruction seem simple enough:</span><br />

"<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Allow nail lacquer to dry. Remove the proctective film from the sheet. Cut out the desired decal and dip it in warm water for 10 seconds. Moisten the surface of the nail. Gently slide the decal off the paper backing and into position on the nail. Gently blot dry with tissue. Finish with top coat."</span><br />

I Have a Herring Problem!<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">OPI celebrates color with the Holland Collection for Spring/Summer 2012. Inspired by the country’s range of stunning shades – as seen in vivid tulips, windmill-dotted hillsides and bustling canals – the collection’s twelve shades offer a mixture of sophisticated neutrals and highly-pigmented brights.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The Holland Collection includes :<strong> A Roll in the Hague</strong>, <strong>Red Lights Ahead...Where?</strong>, <strong>Kiss</strong> <strong>Me on My Tulips</strong>, <strong>Pedal Faster Suzi!,</strong> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Dutch ’Ya Just Love OPI?,</strong> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Vampsterdam</strong>, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Did</strong> <strong>You ’ear About Van Gogh?,</strong> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Thanks a WindMillion</strong>, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Wooden Shoe Like to Know?,</strong><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> <strong>I Have a Herring Problem</strong>,<strong> </strong></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>I Don’t Give a Rotterdam</strong>!, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Gouda Gouda Two Shoes.</strong></span></span><br />

<strong>I Have a Herring Problem </strong>is described as " What’s that you say? I need to “sea” this shimmery green-blue?" by OPI.<strong> IHAHP </strong>is a shimmery green -blue that reminds me of a medium demin blue. It's an interesting colour that's accented by a beautiful gold shimmer. <br />
<br />
<br />
The colour wears well and is very suitable as a work colour. However, the application was a nightmare. After 3 coats, my nails still had visible bald patches. I really hate to use more then 3 coats of polish but it was necessary with IHAHP to achieve even coverage.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While I love the name of this polish, I'm not loving the colour. It's nice but I'm still waiting for the wow factor in this collection. What's you favorite in the Holland Collection?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nail polish storage issues aside...I couldn't resist picking up some great finds this week. I found a full size bottle of <strong>Alpine Snow </strong>(great for nail art!). Two other great finds were,<strong> Nothin' Mousie "Bout It</strong> from the <strong>Minnie Mouse Collection</strong> and <strong>Just Spotted This Lizard</strong> from the <strong>Spider Man Collection</strong>. The purchase I'm most excited to try are the <strong>OPI Pure Lacquer Nail Apps</strong>. </span><br />

I was originally going to do your boring run of the mill skull and cross bones but then I found some wonderful inspiration online. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I used <strong><a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.ca/2011/12/classic-monday-bubble-bath-review.html" target="_blank">Bubble Bath</a></strong> as my base, to create my pirate face. Then covered the upper half of my nail with <strong>Cajun Shrimp to </strong>make a bandanna. Once dry I then used <strong>I Only Date Werewolves </strong>on my dotting tool to create the eye, eye patch and smirk. To finish things up I used my <strong>Yodel Me On My Cell</strong> and my dotting tool to create polka-dots on my bandanna.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Once again, I apologise for the terrible cell phone photo and general lack of photos but I'm still without a camera</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial;">Sorry for the lack of post. It's been a busy couple of months. Unfortunately, you're going to have to wait a little longer for new posts. While on vacation, my voltage converter failed to convert and my camera got fried. I thought about buying a cheap replacement for the time being but decided to save up for a decent camera instead. Anyone have any camera recommendations? </span><br />

Feeling springy I thought I thought try ladybug nails. Once again big thanks to Mary at <a href="http://www.swatchandlearn.com/nail-art-tutorial-ladybug-nails/" target="_blank">Swatch and Learn</a> for the great tutorial.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Then covered the top 3/4 of my nail with tape. I covered the bottom half of the tape with <strong>OPI I Only Date Werewolves.</strong></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Once dry I removed the tape and drew a vertical line with <strong>Kiss Nail Art Paint</strong> in <strong>Black</strong></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Yule Love This Silver</strong> was released as part of the 2001 (I believe, correct me if I'm wrong please!) <strong>OPI Holiday Collection</strong>. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Yule Love This Silver</strong> has a clear base and is jammed full of holo (!) micro glitter! In the bottle the colour can seem a little done (who doesn't have a bottle or two of silver glitter polish?) but once you see it in direct light. Holy crap! It's awesome! Super sparkly. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I could not stop staring at my nails!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><a name='more'></a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">The formula for this colour is great. It went on well and evenly. My major concern when using a clear base with micro glitter is clumping but that wasn't an issue. I did find the formula to be a little on the thin side but the holo glitter more then made up for it. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I used this colour as a glitter coat over <strong>My Private Jet</strong> and it was love from the first coat. I'm a glitter fied so I used 2 coats. I think I may have found my original formula <strong>MPJ</strong> dupe. If you can find <strong>Yule Love This Silver</strong> grab it!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong><u>The Rules</u></strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">1) Link back to the person who gave it to
you.<br />2) Blog about your award.<br />3) Give this award to 5 bloggers & let
them know you gave it to them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong><u>The Nominees</u></strong></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">There are soo many great blogs out there that it was incredibly difficult choosing only 5. Like Miranda, I tried to award people who haven't already received the Laine Award. If I've named you and you've already received it, sorry! However, two is always better then one right?</span><br />

I found a great tutorial for a hibiscus nail design over at <a href="http://thatleanne.blogspot.com/search/label/Nail%20Art?updated-max=2011-06-30T22:01:00%2B10:00&max-results=20&start=29&by-date=false" target="_blank">thatleanne</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I used <strong><a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/01/nicki-minaj-collection-fly-review.html" target="_blank">Fly</a></strong> as my base</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Then used <strong>Kiss Nail Art Paint </strong>in white to do the outline of the hibiscus flower.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Then coloured the flower in using the white</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">To draw the inside of the flower, I used a toothpick dipped in <strong><a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/02/touring-american-taupe-space-needle.html" target="_blank">A-taupe the Space Needle</a></strong></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Princesses Rule! </strong>is described as "A bright sparkly pink that's tiara worthy!" by <em>OPI</em>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Princesses Rule!</strong> was originally released as part of the <strong>OPI Princess Charming Collection </strong>and is now part of the <strong>OPI Soft Shades Collection. </strong>The original collection also included: <strong>I'm A Princess, You're Not!, Got A Date To-Knight!, My Daddy's The King!, Who Needs A Prince?, Your Royal Shyness </strong>and <strong>Princesses Rule!</strong>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><strong>PR </strong>is a very soft shimmering baby pink. In the bottle the colour looks fantastic and I instantly feel in love. Once on, I found it to be incredible sheer. I needed 4 coats for the colour to become semi-opaque and still had VNL. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia;">The formula for this colour is fantastic, it goes on and is packed full of shimmer. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">While I can't see myself wearing this colour on it's own. I can see it being a great way to jazz up a boring pink polish and I can't wait to see how it looks over <strong>MPJ.</strong></span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The One That Got Away </span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">is described as "You always thought you'd marry this amazing deep berry" by <i>OPI</i>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>The One That Got Away</b> is one of 5 colours from the <b>Katy Perry Collection</b> released in 2011. The other colours featured in the collection are: <b>The One That Got Away, Teenage Dream, Last Friday Night, <a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2011/12/katy-perry-collection-not-like-movies.html" target="_blank">Not Like The Movies</a>, </b>and a <b>Black Shatter</b>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I should have really called this post "Don't judge a polish by the colour in the bottle. This colour is WOW! </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It's a beautiful <a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2011/12/nail-polish-finishes.html" target="_blank">glass flecked</a> raspberry colour. I could not stop staring at my hands when I put this colour on. It's gorgeous! When I first looked at the colour in the bottle, I was pretty certain I was going to hate it. Reds are not something I wear on my hands, ever. I'm so fair (like SPF 60 fair) that most reds either look vampy or trashy on me. That's why I'm so surprised at how much I love this colour. It's a fantastic work appropriate colour. It has a great elegant look to it but up close it's sparkly and fun.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The formula for this colour was excellent. <b>The One That Got Away</b> was a mini lacquer and I was expecting the formula to be chunky and thick. It wasn't! Yay. It went on evenly had the perfect thickness. I used 3 coats for opacity. I probably could have gotten away with 2 but I noticed some very subtle bald spots. I'm sure I'm the only one who would have noticed them but my inner OCD</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">just wouldn't allow it. I wore this colour for 4 days and had only minimum tip wear and chips.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Did <b>The One That Got Away</b> take you by surprise too? What's your favourite in the <b>Katy Perry Collection</b>?</span><br />

<b>My Address Is "Hollywood</b>" is described as "We put this pretty rose-pink on the map" by <i>O.P.I.</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
<b>My Address Is "Hollywood"</b> was released as part of the fall 2011 <b>Touring America Collection. </b>The collection consists of 12 colours: <strong>Are We There Yet, Color To Diner For</strong>,<strong> Honk If You Love OPI, French Quarter For Your Thoughts, <a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/02/touring-american-taupe-space-needle.html" target="_blank">A-Taupe The Space Needle</a>, Road House Blues, Suzi Takes The Wheel, I Eat Mainely Lobster, Uh Oh Roll</strong> <strong>Down the Window, My Address is "Hollywood", Get In The Expresso Lane, I</strong> <strong>Brake For Manicures</strong>, inspired by <span class="st">Suzi Weiss-Fischmann cross America RV tour. </span></div>

<span class="st"> This is the perfect pink! It's a beautiful rose pink with gold shimmer. This shade of rose is a great work appropriate colour. Think how good it would look with a chocolate or charcoal suit! The gold shimmer looks great under any light and the rose base in the polish looks great with many different skin tones.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
<span class="st">I bought this colour as a mini and was expecting the formula to be a chunky mess. It wasn't! The formula was perfect. I needed only 2 coats for opacity.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
<br /></div>
<span class="st" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This is a fantastic year round work appropriate colour. I think I need to get my hands on a full size bottle. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Save Me</b> is described as "I drove for miles just to find this silver-rainbow glitter" by <i>OPI</i>.</span><br />

<b style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Save Me</b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">is one of 6 in the </span><b style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Nicki Minaj Collection</b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> by </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">O.P.I.</i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> The collection consist of 3 cremes (</span><b style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/01/nicki-minaj-collection-fly-review.html" target="_blank">Fly</a>, <a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/01/nicki-minaj-collection-pink-friday.html" target="_blank">Pink Friday</a>, <a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/02/nicki-minaj-collection-did-it-on-em.html" target="_blank">Did It On 'Em</a></b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">), 2 metallics (</span><b style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><a href="http://keepcalmandpolishon.blogspot.com/2012/01/nicki-minaj-collection-metallic-4-life.html" target="_blank">Metallic 4 Life</a>, Save Me</b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">) and one shatter (</span><b style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Super Bass</b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">).</span><br />
<div style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> This is what I have been waiting for in this entire collection. To me this is Nicki Minaj! I love <b>Save Me</b>. It's a clear base with rectangle holo (!) glitter and silver micro glitter. Gorgeous!</span><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Save Me</b> goes on well with a not to thick not to thin formula. I did have some issues with the micro glitter clumping and almost over powering the bar glitter in certain areas of my nails. I"ve only worn this colour as a glitter coat and not as a stand alone colour. I used 2 coats of <b>Save Me</b> over 2 coats of <b>My Private Jet</b> and loved the affect. I did find the dried finish to be a little too gritty for my liking but a quick top coat solved the problem.</span><br />
