I am seriously loving this color right now. Just the perfect summery, preppy, Lilly-esque pink for an unusually hot, hot, hot week in the Pacific Northwest.
Now, anyone have ideas on the perfect coral? I need a good coral for Florida in August...

I still LOVE OPI Cajun Shrimp for Coral!
ReplyDeleteoooh, that is a nice pink! I steer clear of corals, so no advice there, sorry!
ReplyDeleteI like OPI's Los Cabos Coral. It's subtle and not too orangey.
ReplyDeletethanks! I am definitely going to look for Cajun Shrimp and Los Cabos Coral. :)
ReplyDeleteDo you find that Strawberry Margarita fades if exposed to (a lot of) sunlight? I have had that happen to my sister and a friend. Weird. It is a fab color, though. For coral, I think Cajun Shrimp is good for bright and Chapel of Love is good for more subtle.
ReplyDeletethanks Heidi! I was srsly hoping you would chime in here too :) I've only had the SM on since Sat and trying to stay out of the sun so I haven't noticed any fading. I will add C of L to my list to check out too. I know you know your colors. :)
ReplyDeleteSweet Tea - if you want to see a lot of coral options (b/c I admit it's not a color I wear much), go to Community Nail Polish gallery:

This is the "orange/coral" page. Lots and lots of pics that people upload with nail polish. I think you need to register to do the search, but this will get you started!
Essie's Carousel Coral & Cute as a Button are my fav. shades right now.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how hot it is here...I don't know if I'll sleep tonight! Blech!

OPI's Cajun Shrimp is a touch too orange for me, but I love, love, love Essie's Coral Reef. More of a pinky coral than an orangey coral. :)
ReplyDeleteWhitney - I will check it out!
ReplyDeleteJemma Ruby - LOVE the new SK book. It is a ghost story, so different, but very very fun w/likeable characters just like the shopaholic books. Am really enjoying it :)

Chanel Fashionista - thanks! I will check it out too.
