It is finally getting warmer and not snowing in our area! So I am ready to finally get the spring/summer clothes down from the attic and paint my nails a pretty summer color!
I just painted my toes OPI Arigato from Tokyo. May paint my fingernails the same color or Essie Clique Trick.

I keep threatening to get a manicure, but I'm still not sure if I feel safe. So, I might try Dashing Diva nail strips or I'll just sit outside and paint. I have some cute OPI colors.

Currently wearing Holo Taco Here for the Payday creme topped with Lite Link multichrome and Galactic Unicorn Skin topper (all HT, lime green, blue green, green leaning iridescent flakes, respectively). I wear a lot of HT, she has fun finishes, toppers, colors.

Just got a mani-pedi this morning. I went with OPI's spring line Racing For Pinks on fingers and toes -- I love it. So far, I've tried about 6 of the colors from that line, and they've all been super.

I went and got a manicure + pedicure on Saturday (finally!) and they had just gotten in some of new OPI Hollywood collection. I picked Art Walk in Suzis Shoes and I love it. Its a cherry red and so far, its looked great with everything I've worn.

My toes currently have OPI Rich Girls & Po-Boys (medium blue) and nails are currently naked but will be getting OPI Aurora Berry-alis (rosy mauve).
I'll be getting a fresh pedicure next week and will probably change to Cajun Shrimp, which is one of my all time faves for spring/summer.

Number 119 on my salon's ring of gel samples. LOL It's my perfect nude pink and it's almost the only thing I wear on my fingers.
I have a similar, but slightly darker OPI shade on my toes.

I'm wearing O&J Pineapple Slushie and Citrus Squeeze, with a Holo Taco topper. I admit that I don't love these colors like I thought I would-- at least not on me. I like the yellow better than the orange. They're probably coming off tonight.
I have O&J Cucumber Sandwich on my toes and I love it.

I hate these threads when there's no pictures I know, right? So annoying. Lazy me has to … go google the colors to see what every one is wearing. In all seriousness, mine are…nothing. After more than 2 years of really bad nails, mine were finally long enough and strong enough to consider putting on nail polish. Notice I said “were”. Yep. Tore one nail off into the “quick” of the nail. This was right after I placed an April Earth Day order from Zoya. I’m still waiting for my nails to grow out and my box of Zoya remains unopened. Ugh. Off to Google everyone’s nail polish colors.

I have OPI La Paz-itively Hot on both my nails and toes. I always have polish on my toes but rarely put anything on my nails. When I do paint my nails it’s always the same as my toes. I just can’t get past having them different colors for some reason.

I have yet to figure out how to post a picture or a link even with everyone being so helpful in trying to give me instructions over the years. I finally gave up! I have been trying to put in an avatar picture but can't figure it out.

I just did my pedi last night as I'm back in sandals since today. I kept it summery classic and fresh with OPI Marshmallow. (photo not mine) I'm wearing ILNP Toasted on my fingers still but I will switch to Essie Sip Sip Hooray for the weekend. My love for sheer polish is definitely (and literally) showing... (photos not mine)

I only know my number too - 237. It’s a light pink, glitter. I’ve never been one to do a manicure. Toes are always done. Red glitter in the winter months.

sleepingbooty I love the ILNP Toasted -- my daughter was just saying she needed something subtle and sheer to wear with a bridesmaids dress. That would be perfect on her.

Loving the very pale Marshmallow...I'd been fancying something pale It's a really great soft and milky jelly-ish pale shade that works well on all skin colours. A classic in my collection, especially for summer. I love the ILNP Toasted -- my daughter was just saying she needed something subtle and sheer to wear with a bridesmaids dress. That would be perfect on her. ILNP's jelly polishes with micro shimmer are absolutely lovely for such occasions! They sparkle just enough without overwhelming the overall look. May I also recommend ILNP's Chleo? Toasted leans beige while Chleo is its blush counterpart. Both contain ILNP's top notch holographic shimmer that adds that perfect sparkle to clean, nude nails.

I have a lot of OPI but not that one! Adding it to my list 😊 I’m not familiar with ILNP?

I’m not familiar with ILNP? I Love Nail Polish is an American indie brand. I used to buy them from a French retailer that specialised in indie brands like Picture Polish, Cirque and Britain's very own A-England but they closed shop so I'm stuck buying from the more expensive ILNP Etsy shop nowadays. ILNP is known for their holographic shimmer. They have a famous and established series called Mega in which they offer jam-packed holo shimmer polishes of varying sizes of said shimmer. A view of one of their Mega polishes in the spoiler:

That’s pretty full on!! Fabulous! Thank you for the info sleepingbooty 😊 There was a shop I used to buy from years ago that did that type of brand but I haven’t looked them up for years. I’ll have to track them down 😊

Try again. That’s my same thumb in both pics, demonstrates the shifting colors in the multichrome 💗

I hate these threads when there's no pictures Haha! Yes. Now I have to google each one?!? Ugh. I had OPI "Aphrodite's Pink Nightie" on both toes and fingers for a full weekend of wedding festivities this past weekend. But once I got home to resume cleaning and gardening, I had to take it off my nails as it was looking shabby. It's still looking pretty on my toes though.

OPI Mylar Dreams link. On both fingers and toes. I have a layer of glitter on top--OPI All A'twitter In Glitter link. I haven't worn this traditional a color in years. I'm kinda liking it.

I only got my nails done a few times over the past 25 yrs. I got a sns dip last summer for my birthday/Mother's Day gift. It was great for the beach! I had a hard time getting it off, and my nails were a bit messed up, but it was so worth it for vacation! But I can't remember the number! It was such a pretty color.
