OPI Wooden Shoe Like to Know?

I think this might be the first time I've had a brown polish on this blog. I have to admit brown has never been my forte, but I'm definitely warming up to the idea. I'm seeing more and more browns lately that are catching my eye, like this one from the OPI Holland collection.

Wooden Shoe Like To Know?




Wooden Shoe Like to Know? is a medium chocolate brown with a golden-pink shimmer.

You know the color of hot chocolate? This is it. I actually was craving hot chocolate while putting this on. I really like this color. I like how it has some purple undertones to it, so it's not a harsh brown. The shimmer is a beautiful touch. I honestly do not think I'd like this color near as much without the shimmer. I think it needed it. If you're unsure of brown shades, this maybe a good stepping stone polish for you to see how you feel about the color.

Happy Tuesday!

  2. Your pictures show the shimmer so well! I adore the thought of brown with golden shimmer, so I picked it up. Haven't done my nails yet, but I look forward to it so much more after seeing your pictures.

  3. This is a really cool color. Not your regular brown, and not your regular shimmer by any means. Very original. :)

  4. I went through a brown polish phase like many did after the greige's had hit hard. Initially I did not get this shade from this collection. Then had 2nd thoughts when I saw more blog photos of the shimmer in it. I don't get as much shimmer in my eyes as great macro shots do - but I have put a layer of CND effects gold shimmer over mine blending it into the top wet coat of the OPI and I get a shimmer I can really see all the way down to my toes!

  5. This is one of the few I got from this collection and I love it! As soon as I saw which polish you were showing I knew you would write about loving the shimmer; we definitely have similar tastes that way. It is so pretty and unique.

  9. It looks lovely on you, although I always wish the shimmer was stronger in these kinds of polishes!

  13. I honestly never thought I'd wear a brown polish but I have several now. Misa's Chocolate Icing got me started. I also especially love CND's Cuppa Joe (getting HTF), and Color Club's Nothing But Truffle. ~~~~Sandi

  14. Absolute perfection on you! You just might need to wear more brown. This is one of the few I want from this collection.

  15. Hmmm, I may have to look into this one. I don't do brown much--well, hardly ever--but the shimmer in it keeps it from being dull. :)
