OPI Lincoln Park After Dark

Ok, so I know that I promised y'all this post on Saturday ... and today is Monday. Yes, I'm a bad blogger. But I ended getting only 5 hours of sleep on Friday night and therefore didn't feel much like doing ... anything, really. I don't function well on less than 8 hrs of sleep. ;D
But the polish, oh the polish. Lincoln Park After Dark is from the Chicago collection of I have no idea when. 2002 maybe? As you can see, it is a lovely lovely vampy purple. It looks black indoors and dark dark purple outside.

Aghhh, these pictures are hurting my eyes, I'm so sorry to subject y'all to them. The fact is that I applied this right before leaving for a weekend in Austin and didn't have time to clean up before snapping pictures ... *sigh*
However, y'all are getting the idea of the color, right? LPAD reminds me of blackberry pie, lusciously dark and jelly-like (it's not a jelly, just to be clear). I hate blackberries, but I love this color. ;) Pretty much the perfect vamp.

  3. Lucy - Omygosh, yes you do. It is fantastic. :) Some family friends were taking a Texas tour and we met them in Austin ... we actually stayed in their uber cool hotel for a lot of the time, swimming on the roof-top pool, but otherwise we saw 'Romeo & Juliet' in the park, which was pretty awesome.
    Meg - I don't segregate my polishes into winter/summer colors ... I just wear whatever I feel like. ;)
