Holland by OPI – Spring/Summer 2012 Collection – In Stock Now

We are delighted to announce the arrival of OPI’s new Spring/Summer 2012 collection, Holland.

Fashion-Savvy Shades with a Touch of Dutch.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant beauty that is Holland, one of the most colour-abundant and famously open-minded cultures in the world. The range of stunning shades in the Holland Collection by OPI, a juxtaposition of sophisticated neutrals and larger-than-life brights, will carry you away to the romantic windmill-dotted countryside, bustling canals and deliciously vivid tulips that blanket the fields.

Each new hue blends the country’s picturesque palette with spring’s most sought-after fashions. A sequence of electric brights, including a sun-lit orange (A Roll in The Hague), a hot coral-red (Red Lights Ahead…Where?) and two perfectly pretty pinks (Kiss Me on My Tulips and a lightcatching Pedal Faster Suzi!) complement their cooler counterparts in hues of glistening purple (Dutch ‘Ya Just Love OPI? and Vampsterdam), while elegant neutrals (Gouda Gouda Two Shoes, Did You ‘ear About Van Gogh? and Wooden Shoe Like to Know?) meet two shimmerlaced blues (I Have a Herring Problem and I Don’t Give a Rotterdam!) and a creamy sea green (Thanks a WindMillion).

Nicki Minaj & OPI Collaboration – Coming January 2012!

We cannot wait for the launch of the six new limited edition shades from OPI, inspired by hip hop sensation Nicki Minaj, including a purple Shatter! Inspired by Minaj’s unique style, love of bright colors, and her debut album Pink Friday, the Nicki Minaj by OPI promotion will feature an array of bold hues, from neon lime green to pink.

“OPI is so excited to work with Nicki in releasing these six new nail lacquers,” said Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “Nicki has taken the hip hop world by storm, but her music is only part of the equation. She’s also become a fashion inspiration, noted for her daring costumes and hair color both on and off the stage.”

Nicki’s eclectic look made including a new hue in OPI’s bestselling Shatter coat a must for this collaboration. The purple Super Bass Shatter (a record-setting purple that “shatters” before your eyes) inspired by graffiti art and works when painted over any dry OPI hue. Adding OPI’s top coat takes Super Bass Shatter from matte to glossy in seconds.

The line features five nail lacquers in addition to Super Bass Shatter, ranging from fantastic pink, rainbow confetti glitter and charcoal sparkle hues to two green shades in lime and teal:

Pink Friday

Pink Friday: Kick off the weekend with this pop! of bubblegum pink.

Did It On 'Em

Did It On ‘Em: A lusty little lacquer that loves the “lime”-light.

Fly

Fly: I came to win, to fight…and to wear this aqua.

Metallic 4 Life

Metallic 4 Life – This charcoal sparkle flies with the stars in the skies.

Save Me

Save Me: I drove for miles just to find this silver-rainbow glitter.

Super Bass Shatter

Super Bass Shatter: Inspired by graffiti art, this purple shade leaves behind a never-before seen pattern when painted over any OPI hue.

Coming January 2012!
