OPI - Clubbing Til Sunrise

So...It's only August 21 and I'm thinking about Halloween already. I just ordered the new China Glaze Halloween colors, I can't wait for them to get here!!! but still I need to relax and enjoy the rest of the summer. Pretty soon it's going to be snowing and I officially hate snow and after last years snow I'm ready to move south.

Anyway....Clubbing Til Sunrise is a Burnt orange with shimmer with a nice metallic like finish. It does make me think of the sunrise :) it applied very easily and covered well with 3 coats, however it is not a very forgiving finish for those with ridges in their nails but only real visible under certain lighting. Below: No base, 3 coats, no top coat.

Again since I was thinking of Halloween I decided to try out some looks I might do in October. I tried 2 different black crackles. Which by the way seem pretty much the same other than formula goes, and white. I think I might try this alternating black and white.

What do you think of the crackle over Clubbing Til Sunrise?

OPI - Done Out In Deco

My very first swatch post!!! Okay, I'll calm down. Please be kind..ie: My HORRIBLE pictures, lighting and even worse cuticles. Anyway this is OPI - Done Out In Deco. This is one of my favorite purples....Although nothing will ever beat my China Glaze - Spontaneous.....If anyone has any suggestions or comments on my photos please let me know. I tried to take them 3 different ways.

Done Out In Deco came out with the South Beach Collection in 2009. I only own 2 others from that collection, Clubbing Til Sunrise and Suzi & The Lifeguard.
This shade is a creamy pale lilac color, it dries darker on the nails than what you see in the bottle. It has a blueish tint to it dry. Definitely a go to color in the spring. I love this polish that it fixes itself after applying it, it's almost like it smooths out into a flawless opaque layer. It is strange how every swatch I have ever seen of this color never truly shows the color that I'm seeing on my nails right now. All pictures are 2 coats; no top coat.

I really hope that someone out there enjoys this, or even finds it helpful. I know that I search a million swatches of a color before I go and buy it.:) Thank you again if you came across my blog and took the time to read my posts. It's very appreciated.
