OPI Sapphire in the Snow

For most of our holiday activities this year, I wore more blues/purples/silver instead of my more typical Christmas red/burgundy/gold so the nail polish I chose was OPI's Sapphire in the Snow from the Holiday Wishes 2009 collection.  

I would describe it as a very dark velvety-blue purple that comes close to the popular dark burgundy shades in lower light.  In bright light or with a flash in pictures, you can really see the blue-purpleness.  In regular or dimmer light, it actually looks kind of close to Give Me Moor from the Espana collection, which I own, so used to do touch-ups.

Here it is in a Blackberry snap at the salon:

Here is a snap with the flash, next to my ATL cardi in "Violet Stone":

And here is a snap in natural light without a flash (in the car on the way to Grandma's).  This and the first pic look most "irl" to me:

Happy Tuesday!
