Purple Passion Part 1

Before I get into my post. I wanted to let you know I posted another poll on my sidebar. I'll probably be doing a small summer giveaway (5-6) polishes at the beginning of June. I'm interested in knowing what type of polishes you all would want. Whichever one wins that will be what I'll be giving away!

Lately I've been really into purples! Before blogging I convinced myself that blue-toned purples or any cool colors didn't look good on me so I stopped wearing them. I was so wrong since blogging I've discovered that many of these colors do look good on me and if they don't and I like them well screw it! Anyways here are some purples I'm into now! I hope you enjoy them!

China Glaze IDK is a light purple holographic. I love holos and this is definitely a fun polish!


China Glaze Spontaneous is a medium purple creme. I'm really into cremes right now so this right up my alley!


Rimmel Night Before is a dark blurple with gold shimmer throughout! This is luxurious color.


OPI Funky Dunkey is a bright med-dark purple creme. This is a funky color that I've been sporting the past few days!

What colors are you into now? I'll be back with more purples tomorrow!

Have a great Monday!

  2. I am always into purples (though right now I'm wearing blue). I looked at your pics and thought "why do I not have Spontaneous? it's so pretty" but then checked my spreadsheet and found I do have it--hmm, maybe my stash is a bit too big. :-)

  4. @KarenD, snicker!! ;)

    Purple seems to be the color of choice when I purchased some new summer tops. Maybe purple is the 'in' color for the summer?

    Many moons ago, I had a roommate who always had blue polish on her toes. I never had tried blue polish before. Now, I'm way less inhabited with the polish colors I choose.

    I love all the ones you demo'd here.

  5. Hi Steph!
    I had about 15 polishes show up on Friday and the first one I reached for was a purple. Which is odd, because i normally go for the reds and pinks. Lol. I think purple fever is catching. I used Grape Pop, which for some reason I thought was the same as Funky Dunkey, but I was way off with that one. Lol
    In that same package was CG LOL (dark purple holo) which my friends both went for straight away. Its all about the purple.

  6. Jan- I love those nails you did! I left a comment on your blog.

    KarenD- I do that a lot. I'll be eyeing a color on someones blog only to find out I already have it!

    Choas-I know I was crazy. I think it started over a year ago I wore a few cooler colors that didn't look great so I assumed I couldn't pull any of them off. Shame on me for it because I had bunch of colors that weren't getting any attention in my stash. Blogging has allowed me to be more carefree and adventurous with nail colors.

    Kimberly-I think purple is an "in" color for summer. I'm seeing it a lot in clothes,accessories, and makeup.

    Bec-I want Grape Pop so bad. I got Funky Dunkey hoping that would work, but I think Grape Pop is one of kind. I'll have to get it eventaully. It's funny you mention LOL that will be one I'm posting tomorrow. :P

  10. OMG my friend was wearing Night Before today and I was just admiring it all day! Coincidence. But I have to criticise that photo Steph, because it doesn't do the colour justice at all! The colour is so much more shimmery and deep in real life. :)
    Purples are awesome, and cremes are awesome, so I'm happy you've learned to love them too!

  11. Joan- You are right. My camera picks and chooses what colors it wants to show off best :P. I think it's jealous of the prettiest ones because those are the ones that tend to not come out 100% :P
