OPI: I Have a Herring problem

My Nail of the day today comes from the lovely Holland collection by OPI.

I picked up the mini lacquer box for this collection a while ago and i have to say all the colours have been completely lovely.

The one I've gone for today is charmingly called 'i have a herring problem!' here is the 'on the nail' pic...

And here is the in the bottle pic....

I think i may have to scout out a full size of this. Its a perfect stormy cornflower blue with such a pretty silver sparkle. Just the perfect shade to sport until summer comes to play in my neck of the woods and i can break out the neons :-)
(note to self, dont wear a bright orange jumper when taking pictures of shiny things!)

The Holland collection is available here

Have you tried any of the lacquers (that's OPIs preferred term) from this collection?

I'm trying out my shiny new phone camera here (Sony Xperia S) so do let me know what you think compared to the pics in my other posts.

Currently i have my eye on:

Rebel from the new Mac Fashion Sets Collections
and
Ratin Jot from the Thakoon for Nars collection - I'm not usually one to splurge so many pennies on single polish but i think the colour could be worth it.

What collections are you loving right now?

In other news:

*My fridge freezer decided to die today. Is it wrong to base the purchase of the new one entirely on the fact that it has a mirrored front?
*Its one of my close friends 30th birthdays. Suddenly felt old + ran to the mirror to check for wrinkles.
*Still addicted to San Pellegrino

Hows your day going?

Topshop Nails: Gypsy Night

Hello my dears, its way past my bed time but i thought id pop on to do a quick post about a new find.

Now I'm last to the party on this (but hey that's nothing new) but I've just discovered Topshop Nails range.

Yes i know they've been out forever but i always just assumed that, well, they'd be a bit rubbish.

How wrong i was...

Now this is only my first go with the first polish i got from them but i am tres impressed.

Nice formula, easy to work with, unusual colour, what more could a girl ask for?

Here is the pictures id have taken more but my battery died!

I give you Gypsy Night..

Such a pretty black with tiny golden micro shimmer and small multicoloured glitter giving a perfect galaxy effect. As i said so so pretty.

Gypsy Night costs £6 and is available here or at most Topshop stores.

I'm keen on getting more from this range so any suggestions would be most welcome!

The morning after the night before,

This picture is just one of those things that make me happy.

I'd come stumbling out my house a little, er, 'worse for wear' one morning running late for my bus but the sheer randomness of this laying in the car park made my day/month/year.

I don't know what eventually happened to jolly man. But even now the idea of the presumably drunken thought process behind it makes me smile :-)

Anyone else had an encounter with the bizarre on your doorstep?
