Stripe Week - OPI Candy Stripes

Hi Goddesses



A couple of weeks ago, I asked my good friend Ashley if she would like to do a new series of weekly challenges with me.  Happily she agreed, and then Emma thought it would be interesting, and so did Kerrie lol, so this week, we're all having a bit of a Stripe Week.




I tend to work much better in themes, which is where Stripe Week came from .... and then the handful of OPI Euro Centrales that I'd ordered arrived as well, and suddenly Crumpet had 2 themes to play with!




As some of you know, for the longest time I've searched for a perfect cream base, and OPI My Vampire Is Buff is absolutely it (swatch post coming soon).  This is the base polish you see in all the shots.  As it's not white, the overall effect is less stark, and much more .... well, creamy :)




My 2 colours here are the heavenly duo of OPI Sparrow Me The Drama and Planks a Lot, 2 of the most used colours in my stash.   I still love that Pirates Collex, if only it had had a perfect baby blue in it too :)




On each nail, I wanted to experiment / practice with my striping tape, hence the skittle.




I am loving the combination of these 3 polishes together.    I think my favourite nail is the ring finger - which one is yours ??


See you tomorrow with an OPI fishbraid :) xx
