NOTD: O.P.I 'Rainbow Connection'

One of the most talked about nail polish collections of 2011 was the O.P.I and Muppets collaboration. With a bunch of gorgeous glitters and lovely metallics, it was bound to be a big hit around Christmas and especially with magpies like me. After seeing the swatches of the collection, I knew that I was going to be buying Rainbow Connection because it was just amazing in the photos. The other glitters, pretty as they were, didn't really jump out at me so I skipped them and went for the one I had my mind set on and it really didn't disappoint.

Rainbow Connection (no idea what the name is about but whatever) is a multi-coloured glitter nail polish with around six different sized glitter particles so when it is applied it just looks so eye catching and mesmerising. I paired it with a black base because the polish doesn't have a base shade to sit on but I am tempted to try it with a navy blue or maybe a gold or maybe a silver.... The possibilities are endless!

This is a close up of Rainbow Connection, you'll have to excuse the tip wear on the nails. I forgot to snap a photo straight after I painted them so this is after two days of wear.
Isn't that just one of the prettiest nail polishes you've ever seen!?!
I actually couldn't stop looking at my nails and I got asked by several people which nail polish I was wearing so it is a crowd pleaser too. It's a shame that full on glitter nails look a little out of place during the week because I would definitely make this a routine thing but maybe I'll just save it for once in a while when I need a bit of a sparkle and pick me up.

I don't think you can pick Rainbow Connection up anywhere anymore because I heard it sold out almost immediately but I'm sure eBay has a few knocking around so check there if you're after one.

What do you lot think? Is 'Rainbow Connection' a little too much for you or are you all about the glitz?

Until next time...
Keep swivelling those hips in your

  9. Mega late and nerdy post, but as well as being the name of a super cute nail polish, Rainbow Connection is the title of a Muppets song :)
