The New OPI Venice collection: Annie's Insights

Hello out there! Elizabeth here with The Glitter Report on OPI's new Venice collection: Today our resident polish-and-everything-fabulous expert Annie gave me the need-to-know on this Venetian-inspired collection.

The Venice Collection: we're serious about fabulousness at TheGlitterReport.wordpress.com

E: Looks like a great collection! Which colors should we be getting excited about? 

A: 'My gondola or yours? ' Which is a delightful chocolate cherry shimmer, perfect for fall. I also very much enjoy 'O Suzi Mio': the perfect eggplant. It's perfect for fall fashion trends.

E: Anything we're loving for the end of the summer season?

A: 'Gelato on my mind' is the perfect color to wear all August.  Another good one is 'I cannoli wear OPI'. This is a wet concrete color... It's the new neutral.

I Cannoli Be There in a Prosecco if there's Gelato involved...

E: Any other honorable mentions?

A: Shout out to 'Be there in a Prosecco' for its name! (Laughs)

And I really enjoy 'Give me a Lido kiss' (as she brushes some of the bright Cabernet-ish color onto her own nail) more than I thought I would! 


Thanks, Annie! (Aka 'The Color Whisperer')

Look out for the fun new Venice collection at a nail spa near you this fall! Love, E and A

The $130 elliptical we love!

Hopefully you haven't been there - but chances are you have: The feeling of ultra motivation takes over, and you purchase a super- big, super-expensive piece of exercise equipment ...  Only to end up using it as a rack to dry your laundry on.

If you've been burned by large, over-priced equipment before (or if you're trying to avoid that in the first place), take a look at the Joyus elliptical trainer

We love this little guy!

A mega-fast treadmill, it's not. But if you're looking for a low-commitment and easy way to keep moving while catching up on Netflix, this might be the option for you - we love it!

love, A and E
