Lilac Love

Just a quick post to show off this gorgeous colour! I've had it for a while but never tried it out and i LOVE it! It's part of the O.P.I Shrek Collection and it's called 'Rumple's Wiggin' ' and yes it came out a a while back but who cares :-P it's a great spring colour (yes I'm a sucker for wearing pastel colours in spring/summer) and this is probably my favourite out of the Shrek Collection so I decided to purchase the big bottle after purchasing the mini set of the rest of the collection. I love that it's a block colour so you don't have to put on a lot of coats like a lot of other light coloured nail polish and it's just so summery it makes me smile :-) As the collection was a limited addition I don't think it's still in stores but I'm sure you can find it on ebay or amazon :-) I got it last year from a shop called ULTA Beauty when I went on holiday in the U.S last year (kind of like boots in the UK) and it was $8.95 therefore cheaper than it would be in the UK but still an average O.P.I price. So that's all for today, just a pretty lilac colour that's great for summer which I'm sure I'll be wearing a lot this summer, a long with a lot of my other summer favourites which I'm sure I'll blog about in the near future most likely :-) Anyway bye for now lovely people xxx
