OPI: Color to Diner For

Am I the only person who buys polish to match a new jumper/sweater??  Please say nooo...

This is exactly how it happened:  I bought a new sweater to wear out for dinner on my birthday.  Only a few minutes after that, I happened to notice OPI's Color to Diner For when I walked past the stand, and happened to notice it was the exact match for that sweater. It was meant to be I figured (or justified) to myself!  Besides, it was my birthday after all.

Color to Diner For is from OPI's Touring America collection released last year and I largely ignored the collection when it was released, only buying the khaki green creme Uh-Oh Roll Down the Window at the time.  Anyway, coming back to the point I've realised this darker red polish is something I probably didn't have in my collection and I love the burnt red colour with its understated shimmer.  I call it burnt red as that's the colour listed on the tag of my sweater and I think it's a really spot-on description.  The polish was a little on the thin side on application and whilst I applied two coats I think three would have given it a little extra depth.

This is a classic red and a perfect match for the autumn wardrobe:

Full sun

Part sun

Shade

Apologies for the little unannounced hiatus.  We had a rather inconvenient internet outage around here. 

Until next time.
