Bring Your Own Boy

I have a bit of an obsession with Sephora by O.P.I nail polishes even though (deep down) inside I have to admit I have owned cheaper polishes of much better quality. There's just something about the colour range, the quirky names and the way they look on display that draws me to them like a mouse to cheese (humour me). If you'd like to see my humble collection click -here-.

This particular colour has been a staple ever since I snapped it up last July, and it's also a favourite of my mum's. It's the perfect winter-spring transition colour and is very complimentary on my skin tone. I'm not much of a pastel nail person, the colours just don't do anything for my hands so I stick to similar colour families but make sure they still have a 'deepness' running through them.

Sephora by O.P.I - BYOBoy 

Please excuse how shoddily it's been applied - it was slapped on about 5minutes before I had to leave to go out, as a reflex to recoiling in horror at the state of my bare, woebegone nails. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

What do you guys think of Sephora by O.P.I nail polishes? What kind of colours are you reaching for at the moment?

Love, Emma xo

    I think you are near enough the same skin tone as me but funnyly enoughg those colours hardly ever suit me! and if I do put them on I take them off after a day! II feel like nude and pastels suit me more! Weird huh?

    I only own one OPI nail polish, from the Muppets Collection, but definitely want to try more - like you the names intrigie me (if only to say when asked what I'm wearing on my nails lol!) This colour looks gorg on your nails, couldn't agree more, you have the right skin tone for it! Impressed at the 5min job, that would have taken me minimum of 30mins lol :) x

    I don't have any Sephora by OPI =( but I have a ton of regular OPI nail polishes and I really love the shiny quality! I have been loving "Lunch at the Delhi" from OPI's India Collection. It's like a coral/pink color...I recently blogged about it!! Check it out!!
