I went to one of those Christmas in July press days yesterday. Plenty of well-dressed ladies, canapes and nonchalant expressions.
Being neither well-dressed nor seemingly able to contain my excitement when surrounded by makeup THAT’S NOT EVEN OUT YET! I felt a little out of place. I wasn’t even carrying a designer handbag.
I may also have let out a little uncontrolled squeal when I saw the OPI Holiday 2010 Burlesque Collection due out at the end of November.
‘Ave a look!
Rising Star – Lustrous glimmering gold.
Ali’s Big Break – Glowing Red Shimmer
The Show Must Go On – Deep Pink Shimmer
Teasey Does It! – Burgundy Shimmer
Drool! Check out the duochrome shimmery goodness of Teasey Does It! and The Show Must Go On.
Extra-Va-Vaganza – Orange Glitter
Glow Up Already! – Green Glitter
Simmer and Shimmer – Blue Glitter
Bring on the Bling – Golden Glitter
Glitter-ama! These bear more than just a passing resemblance to the Alice in Wonderland glitters… I’m thinking OPI know a good thing when they see one.
Sparkle-iscious – Multi Coloured Glitter
Show it and Glow It – Purple/Fuchsia Glitter
Let Me Entertain You! – Fuchsia Glimmer
Take The Stage – Warm Orange Shimmer
How perfect are these for Christmas?
I KNOW it’s only August, and you’re a bit over the Xmas posts already. But how could I not show you these?
I only wish I’d had the balls to swatch them all. But I think that perhaps sitting cross-legged on the floor painting each nail a different spangly colour would have been a step too far. Don’t think I wasn’t tempted though.
You’ll be able to purchase the collection from LookFantastic.com – I’ve already earmarked a couple!
Any of them calling your name?
Oh god. The glitter lover in me wants them ALL. So sad I didn’t make it to the Christmas press day, dayjob got in the way 🙁
12 colours. 20 nails. You betcha I’d have swatched them there and then. Not this IS a decent range. Forget the Swiss stuff.
My only question is. WHICH ONES ARE LIMITED? Let me at ’em!
Is sparkle-iscious the same as mad as a hatter?
Sparkle-iscious looks like a revamped version of Mad as a Hatter… and that’s my favorite glitter polish. I have to get that one!
yup – I agree, shoes off and swatching on the floor – where’s your commitment to the cause???
These are too beautiful to be true…can’t wait for them to come out!
Ooooh, now I’m excited about this collection! Especially ‘Show It and Glow It’! x
These are gorgeous!
I’m really loving Ali’s Big Break, The Show Must Go On, Show It And Glow It, Simmer And Shimmer and Let Me Entertain You!
I would have been sat on the floor swatching away lol :Dx
OMG! Thank you SO much for the pictures! I want 9 LOL!
I’m normally not a fan of glittery polish but teasy does it looks lovely.
Not a single plain-arse creme? Come on OPI, throw us glitter-haters a bone! Where by “us” I suspect I only mean me.
Am I the only one that is a little disappointed by these? I always look forward to the OPI Holiday release and usually end up buying most of them, but I’m only really loving 2 or 3 of these.
Thanks so much for the sneak peek though!
None of these are super duper up my alley, but they are a pretty sight to look at all together…and I hear Christmas coming along 🙂
Awww, all of them, I’m afraid!
Too bad they’re such a pain to remove.
is ‘the show must go on’ holographic? it looks pretty cool!
Hi, I don’t think any of them are holographic lovely x
they looks fabulous!
and just when I thought I don’t need another polish…
I only liked Teasy does it. I might get another one or two after seeing swatches, but OPI and I haven’t been liking each other lately. Too boring.
There are a couple of maybes in there for me, but I’m much more desperate to get my mitts on the OPI Swiss 2010 Autumn Collection.
There is a to die for teal shade, and a super cool silver, not to mention another lovely auberginey shade.
You HAVE to check it out if you haven’t already 🙂
Just stumbled upon your blog and I am so happy to see these bottles! I’m going to go get most of these for sure!
Linked back to this post from my blog – these bottles are too pretty not to share! 🙂
They’re all calling my name!
They look fab! x
The Show Must Go On is so gorgeous! I want it and I don’t even wear nail polish much as it chips off my nails in matter of hours. 🙁
The Show Must Go On and Take the Stage are screaming my name. Teasy Does It Intrigues me as well. Nice to see some variety from OPI.
I definitely need to pick up a few of these!! Especially since I missed Absolutely Alice!
I am asking for help. In Italy it’s almost impossible to find OPI and China Glaze (or CND or thousands of other brands!!!) in shops. Can you suggest to me some internet site IN EUROPE where I can find these brands? I said “in Europe” because buying from USA is a pain due to custom for freight bureaucracy! Many shipped things easily get lost!
Thanks
hi! you could try Lena White the UK distributors of OPI
Thank you very much, that’s a wonderful site! Now I just need to discover where I can get China Glaze…
V
You could try the China Glaze Facebook page. You can leave them a question and they often respond fairly quickly. One would think their people would know where one could buy their product! LOL, Good Luck!
Thanks for posting pics! they look so much better than the promos released, I will definatly be picking up Sparkle-iscious (even though i already have Mad as a Hatter :P), Show it and Glow It and Teasey Does It!
I am catching the VAPORS!! These colors are all soooo pretty! I can’t wait to get them!
can someone PLEASE tell me if sparkle-icious is comparable to mad as a hatter?
I want that, simmer and shimmer and show it and glow it. 🙂
It’s clearly comparable… but I haven’t swatched any of the Burlesque collection.
I have Mad as a Hatter and it looks simillar… that’s all I can tell you I’m afraid xx
Sparkle looks much more gold then Hatter to me. Hatter is my all time favorite polish ever!
These look beautiful! I’m excited for Bring on the Bling and possibly, Sparkle-icious.
Thanks for taking the time to photograph these and when can we possibly expect some swatches? 🙂
in the bottle, The show must go on looks like Bad Fairy from MAC’s Venomous Villains.
hi there! love the photos, hate the promo pics. Colour inaccurate is an understatement for those! will be going for the glitters mostly, multi color glitter and the purple glitter look amazing. thanks for showing these so early!
I think you’re the only one with actual photos of the bottles!! just checked the blogosphere and found your entry is quite unique thanks a billion 🙂
I correct myself:
I want from the first picture to the third:
The gold and deep pink and possibly the burgundy one in picture 1,
the green and blue glitter,
the multi color, the purple glitter and the fuchsia glimmer.
AWESOME polishes!
Thanks so much for the sneak peek, I hope OPI does not give you trouble for posting this. I know a few bloggers took down their promo pics even (which are public anyway I guess?).
I wished OPI realized this creates wants and needs for us polish lovers so early already.. by the time its released I’ll probably be so tempted by the pics I ve seen here I’ll take 3 times as much for looking at the pictures for too long 😀
thank you so much. i’ve been looking for this collection for ever. you can’t seen to find information about this. i will be surely buying something!
Ohh, i have to say i saw the first photo and was bitterly disappointed, more foils! i was hoping for more alice in wonderland-esqe glitters… but once i scrolled down, oh those magical polishes stole my heart! so excited, I love show it and glow it, simmer and shimmer and glow up already. Can’t wait for this collection, I’ll be getting every one of those glitters!
You can order these now on Amazon!
