OPI Stranger Tides

I realise I have pretty much been reduced to one post a week. There is a perfectly good reason for this. I am only posting when I feel like it. I don't want to force myself to write a post because then I'll feel like it's work and it's not supposed to be work. I have plenty of work to do and I don't need this blog adding to the work.

That said, I have a huge backlog now. I'll probably have to go through my entire bunch of photos in my computer and decide what to post.

I know I've swatched OPI Stranger Tides before together with the rest of the collection (Part 1 & Part 2) but I went to watch Pirates of the Caribbean On Stranger Tides in the cinema and what better polish to wear than this one? I am in love with the soundtrack from the movie. Hans Zimmer always does an amazing job.

I'm not really happy with the blue sky reflection in one of my previous Stranger Tides swatch photos. Unfortunately the blue sky shows up in at least one other mani in my backlog. Sky too blue, not enough sun, I can never complain too much about the weather.

I did 3 coats with top coat.

 

Excuse the fingerprint on my nail :/

I really love the whole Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. It's genius. I don't care much for Keira Knightley in the films. I like Penélope Cruz a lot more.

I have fantasized about being a pirate. Too bad I get seasick ):
