Orange You Obsessed ?

Orange you happy?

...I sure am!

The last few days, I have been stressing and slaving over school and work, before my 2 week Olympic break

{wahoooooie!}

Since I felt like I was about to burst some brain, I figured it was healthy and necessary for me to step outside for some fresh air & perhaps purchase a

"pick-me-up".

As I perused the shops near my neighbourhood, I saw a nail polish that immediately caught my attention.

It was bright, it was loud & it was ORANGE!

A wacky colour, I know. But, it tugged at my curiosity.

I had to try the polish!

Just one stroke of orange, and I knew I needed it in my life.

OPI "Don't Be Koi With Me"

{Ha!, I ♥ the name}

Beautiful, Bright orange

No shimmer

Easy application

Non-streaking

Long lasting {hasn't chipped in 4 days}

I would describe the colour as a "koi fish-orange"

{hence, the name}

It certainly has a reddish tinge.

Ah, Yes! Thanks to one my my most favourite blogger friends, Tessa, I realized I was likely attracted to this colour because it bares a striking resemblance to my LOVE, Hermes. Oh, Hermes! 

Although OPI polishes tend to be pricier than other brands, I do feel the quality is worth it.

The polish applies like a dream & leaves a streak-free finish.

I am horrible at painting my own nails.

{colour ends up all over my fingers}

But, using OPI polishes, my result looks purrty & semi-professional. :)

I did not use base or top coat, and the polish has lasted 4 days{& counting}.

The colour is so bright & wacky.

Makes me smile as I work & look down at my fingers.

MORE ORANGE?

Yes!

eep! These mini oranges are super mini!

TOO CUTE!

...om nom nom!

These orange "pick-me-ups" have been brightening my day.

So, my lovelies, what has been brightening your day?

XO,
