Nails of the Week: OPI You Don’t Know Jacques!
After a one week break from cremes, I’m back at it. Since this past weekend was my birthday weekend, I went with an old favorite to help me ring in my next year as a 30-something.
This week’s Nail of the Week is an oldie but goodie – OPI You Don’t Know Jacques! ($8 US), a gray-brown taupe that makes me feel very fashion-forward when I wear it.
OPI is a brand that produces consistent quality formulas and even more than a year later, my bottle still applies nicely. I have to admit that today, after three days of wear, I’ve got a couple of chips but nothing too major.
I love the color and I’m so glad I didn’t let my mom take it home with her the last time she came to visit me
Do you own OPI You Don’t Know Jacques! from their Fall 2008 collection? What’s on your nails today?

Hi sarah,
As far as nail colors for Valentine’s Day, I like to do it up with red but not too bright. One shade I like that I saw on Kate Hudson on the red carpet at the Golden Globes is Lady is a Tramp by Lippmann.

Lovely color! I feel it looks quite similar to Chanel Particulière, which I got my hands on just not too long ago, but haven’t used yet.

Hi Jess,
I haven’t see Particulière in person yet (I’m dying too!), but You Don’t Know Jacques is a great gray that’s budget-friendly too!

Hi GloriaLeighD,
Thanks so much for the birthday wishes! I totally forgot how much I dig this OPI until I found it while rummaging for nail colors to wear! Do you have any other faves this season?

When the España collection came out I was really into Barefoot in Barcelona.
Trying to find a nice light pink or maybe pale coral for my wedding now. Let me know if you have any faves.
