Sinfully Summer

Allure Magazine swears rose gold shades are perfect to compliment this summer's fashion. While I've been an Allure subscriber for quite some time, I couldn't disagree more.

If you're a northerner there are only 3 months a year that you can pull of wearing crazy bright colored nail polish without looking like a ghetto-fab-wannabe-diva. Living in the south, this season is extended a bit, but regardless, wear a bright colored polish in the middle of December and you risk looking trashy and delusional.

Enter my latest addiction - Sinful Colors Professional Nail Polish. They don't have fun names like OPI a la "An Affair In Red Square" or "That's Hot! Pink" but at 1.99$ a pop at Walgreen's, I can live with that. The summer collection is so bright and fun... And didn't I mention they're 2 bucks? For 12 bucks, the cost of 2 bottles of OPI (if you're lucky), you can own the entire summer collection, in colors like Irish Green, which reminds me of one of those plastic tee shirt tie clips I had when I was 8, and Summer Peach, the kind of bright orange that us dark-haired ravens pray our hair doesn't turn when we try bleaching for that summer blonde look.

Sinful Colors also has a city line which I found on their website. It features cities like Orlando, which appears to be a silvery glitter polish, although the swatch isn't very big. And for those of you without a Walgreen's nearby who can't find Sinful Colors, their website also offers online ordering for 2.50$ a pop. Check them out HERE.

July has only just started - which leaves at least 2 more months of bright nail polish wearing so get on it!
