Nail Polish Love: OPI Holiday Glow

Let me begin this post by saying that I have not always appreciated the many different colors of nail polish available. I used to always be a pale pink wearer. Don't get me wrong, I still love me some pink. However, I was inspired last spring by this post over at one of my favorite blogs All Things G&D. Most people around here do not wear bright, vibrant shades like those and that post showed me that it is ok to wear them.

My obsession started slowly with a pinkish shade for the summer. From there I decided that I had to have more. You see, nail polish is a fairly inexpensive way to change your look. If you haven't noticed, the economy sucks right now. I have heard that lipstick sales go up when the economy is bad. Nail polish is my version of lipstick.

Anyway, let me get to my real reason for this post. I have found what might be my dream nail polish. It comes from the OPI Holiday Wishes collection and it is called Holiday Glow.

This polish is a dark brown with subtle gold glittler. It is my answer for the perfect holiday nail polish. I am kind of over reds for the holiday so this is a nice alternative. It is festive without screaming Christmas.
