You know, the essentials.
It was great to catch up, but the weird coinkydink moment came when my friend, who I have written about before, met us for lunch and all I could do was stare at her nails.
They were a smooth grey with a hint of purple. Darker than the color that I was crushing on this fall, but still totally chic. And, I never found a light grey that met my specifications.
So, after we got through the niceties of how-are-you, how-is-work, significant-others-etc. I couldn't contain myself any longer and I blurted out...What color is your nail polish?!?!
I mean seriously, you can't take me anywhere. I have no social graces.
She looked a little taken aback (I mean literally, she had gotten through"work is goo-" before I jumped in) but said that she was shocked at how many comments she had gotten on it. And that it was OPI by Sephora.
And I knew exactly which one she meant.
I know, because I have been to Sephora, oh, maybe 20 times to look at it. It's the closest I've seen to what I want, but I was unable to pull the trigger and just buy the damn thing.
Well, no longer! Because my friend also said the magic phrase. She told me that it was - nojoke- the best nail polish she's used. No chips and going on 10 days. Well, that seals the deal. I plan on heading for that little bottle like a fricking heat-seeking missile or an intern for the cheese platter at a Rayburn reception.
Yeah, it's on.
After the nail polish issue was cleared up, I did get all the life scoop from my friend and catch up and everything. I take this as reaffirmation that we are meant to be friends.
Oh, she also was carrying the bag I was about to buy last week. Freaky, yes?

LOL - I have been having the same reaction to that nail polish myself. I just wanted to stop by and say hello - I used to write Beauty Musings and commented a couple of times here (or maybe i just lurked a lot). I moved back to Washington a few months ago and it occurred to me I had not visited your blog in a long time.
Sooo funny, because I was visiting my college roomate inChicago last weekend, and she was wearing the same nail polish! I loved it too and she also said its a great quality nail polish.
I saw this post a while ago and meant to leave a comment. I understood what you mean by color obsession because when I was cut off by an SUV on the Pike the other day, the only thing I could think of was that the color of that car would make the perfect nail polish. I found a kind of match by Essie, but I think one of your Sephora ones may be IT. I love your lavender gray. thanks for sharing.
Hey, I bought it and it looks wrong on my skin. Do you want it? On the house, just to get it out of the cabinet. Let me know.
