OPI Hussy

 

Today I have a very special post!! I was convinced by my good friend and fellow blogger, Marisa, to do a red nail polish post!  Saira, another fellow blogger and friend was convinced by Marisa as well.  I have to be honest here.  I do not grab for reds.  I have them of course, but they aren't usually my go to.  I think they look nice on me, but I just think of red as a standard nail color, and it's not as "fun" haha.  However, even Mr. CC commented how nice this was and that it was very sexy and classy.  I suppose Marisa is right ;-)  Today they are wearing red too!  Please check out Marisa's blog, http://marijonails.blogspot.com/, and Saira's blog, http://sairas-blog.blogspot.com/, and see what they have on!

This color is very special to me because my good friend Laura picked it up or me!  I believe it was around Christmas time, so the color was perfect!  Polish is always such a lovely gift!  She told me it is a Merle Norman exclusive that she found and knew I must have!  How sweet of her to think of that and pick it up for me!  It made it even more special ;-)   Plus I just love the name Hussy!  My friend Laura made sure I knew she wasn't referring to me, LOL.  I believe this color is still available, but for more information, please check out the Merle Norman website: www.merlenorman.com.



Hussy is a gorgeous red with shimmer.  In the sunlight it becomes very red and bright, but in artificial lighting, it is more of a dark red.  See below for the pictures with different lighting! ;-)

So I'm very glad I chose this as my red to wear.  I think I only wore it once since I've had it!  It is SO pretty, it should be worn more!  I do love a good red though, so I'm glad Marisa was able to talk me into it! ;-)

Am I the only one that doesn't grab for red?  Or is most of your collection red?  In looking at my collection, I see a lot of red OPI polishes, but the rest of my brands have a mix of everything.  I may need to keep a better eye on red polishes!  I could be letting some pass me by without even realizing it!!!

Hope you have a great Monday!

Much Love,
