opi suede collection fall 2009 OPI 09 Fall Suede Collection

For the Fall season, OPI has released a new collection of nail polish titled Suede. They are all previously released colours that have been given a “suede” finish, which makes them seem like a cross between matt and satin. Colours include Russian Navy, You Don’t Know Jacques!, Lincoln Park After Dark, Suzi Skis in the Pyrenees, OPI Ink, and We’ll Always Have Paris. Unlike the original shades, they have a slight glitter to them.

I swear I am one of the biggest M.A.C fanatics out there, and I especially love their nail polish, so this collaboration was made for me!:)

nitrolicious reports:
“MAC has partnered with renowned nail artist, Jin Soon Choi on her first-ever brand collaboration, she had a clear vision: highly pigmented, bold nail colours with a long-lasting, high-shine cream finish. With that direction, MAC Product Development experts set out to develop a F/W ‘09 trend-driven nail collection that would appeal to beauty and fashion addicts everywhere. The complete collection includes six rich, opaque shades with editorial flair and depth, as well as an Underlacquer and an Overlacquer, all formulated to strengthen and fortify nails. During the Fall/Winter ‘09 Collections, Doo.Ri chose Beyond Jealous (a blackened blue/green shade), to complete the models’ looks. Each bottle is priced at$12.00 U.S. / $15.50 CDN. The collection is slated to hit www.maccosmetics.com and MAC counters in North America on August 27, 2009 and International in September 2009.”

I will be in line waiting for these to release. No joke!:)
