🌟Fab! Like Camilla below, I’ve been wearing the same since c.2009πŸ˜‚! A variety of OPI and Essie nude & mocha tones. Call it laziness but I feel that when you get a colour that goes well with your skin (especially on ageing fingers and toes!), you need to keep with something that looks youthful. Love those mocha tones for lips too! X

Off to make a mani/pedi appt! I am so bad at nail upkeep but I love the chocolate colors for a fall pedi- I used to use that OPI color all of the time and had pretty much forgotten about it, so thanks for the reminder! xo

πŸ€ŽπŸ™Œ I’d never seen it before and I absolutely love OPI (in fact, I bought a nail envy the other day in an attempt to rescue my poor, post acrylic -and gel - nails!! Soooo bad!!πŸ’…πŸ»πŸ˜«!!) I’m hopeless about painting dark colours myself, and right now I have the remnants of summer on my toes and, admittedly, rouge type colour on my fingers but I totally want to join you with the chocolate next!! πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ€Ž xoxo

Without knowing I’m on trend! Previous mani was a RN lookalike. Current mani is a chocolate pink, more chocolate than pink but the pink ones does wonders for my aging hands!
