Orange you glad?

I am not usually much of an orange or red polish wearer, but I do have my fair share of them. Likely in the pursuit of finding the perfect shade for me. It's not that I don't love them, because I do. Especially on other people. You will usually find me with a purple, blue or green polish on, and usually some sort of nail art. But, I am not afraid to try anything once. Well, perhaps I might cringe at an upchuck yellow, or a baby poo green.
So here we have a few of the oranges in my collection.



This is LA Girl Color Addict, in Indulge. Most of my LA girls colours (yes I add a 'u' to coloUr because I am Canadian) are great quality with good application and this one was no different. I do love the colour and although in these pics it makes my skin look a little red, it doesn't do that so much in real life. It is a medium orange with a gorgeous gold shimmer that I love so much. ♥

I'm His Coral Friend by OPI is from the SUNBelieveable Collection, released  in the Summer of 2009.
This is a beautiful coral colour. Love love love it. It's a two coater and the application is flawless. I think the finish is what really makes it stand out. It's very shiny, almost like a jelly, but it's more opaque than most jellies. I would say this  is definitely one to get if you like corals.

This is Hot & Spicy by OPI from the Hong Kong Collection in the Spring of 2010.
It is a medium-light orange cream. Good application.

OPI Cajun Shrimp is part of the OPI Classic Collection.
It's a bright chili pepper orange red. Super bright and summery.
It is very very close to Essie One of a Kind. I would say close enough to be called a dupe.

Ok that's all I have for today in the orange/coral department.
Suddenly I am craving a fruity summery drink.

Thanks for looking!

  1. Hi Pam,
    Thanks for stopping at my beach blog (beachsnaps.blogspot.com)...I'm in Iowa for the summer but will be back to blogging about the beach next fall.

    Meanwhile, you asked about my shell chime and how I punched the holes through the shells...my husband took care of that with one of his small wood drills.

  2. Hi Becky, thanks for getting back to me. Ok that sounds great. I would love to make a shell chime. My youngest daughter collects shells ALL the time. I was just afraid of the shell cracking or something so I wondered if you had braced it somehow.
    Thanks
    Pam

  4. Hi there, thanks for checking out my blog! Yes I am kind of feeling the oranges and yellows for summer. Did you see my pink/orange/yellow gradient? You might like that one too. Your blog is cute too. I will take more time to go through it later, as I just browsed the first page.
    Cheers!
