This musical is awesome! When I first heard it was in development when I was in high school, I though it would be the worst idea for a musical ever, but after I heard it I was hooked and then I finally got around to seeing it and it was so epically amazing!!!
Chip on my Shoulder
Laura Bell Bundy as Elle Woods and Christian Borle as Emmett
Check out SMASH Monday night at 10 on NBC where Christian stars as musical composer Tom. Smash is awesome!! Everyone check it out!!!
Hello! Today's post I'm really excited about. Its a Broadway spam day! I'm posting the other colors I own from the OPI Broadway collection with a HUGE shout out to Katherine from Haul of Fame for taking the time to track these down for me! THANK YOU!!! After I do the swatches and post their corresponding musicals I'm gonna post video of my favorite musicals of the moment for your guys' enjoyment!
Movin' Out. Pink/Purple/Green multichrome with micro glitter. I really love this though it was really hard for me to capture the duochrome but I LOVE this!! So much!! Way more than I thought I would like this. My only problem with this is its so sheer. This is 4 coats and I can still see my nail line... I'm gonna have to wear this over something next time... either way I still love it and the musical its named after:
"River of Dreams/Keeping the Faith/Only the Good Die Young" from Movin' Out
Man of La Mancha. 3 coat. Orange/copper/yellow multichrome. The formula on this bad boy was way better than Movin' Out, but I don't like the colors as much
"The Impossible Dream" from Man of La Mancha
For this I decided to do 2 of the lighter colors over black.
Index and Middle have 3 coats of Thorougly Modern Millie
Ring and Pinky have 3 coats of Mamma Mia.
I really like these but they are a lot like RENT by OPI, their base colors are different but the duochrome is really close. I really like these and I need to find different ways to wear these! I can't wait!! :)
Gimme Gimme from Thoroughly Modern Millie with the uh-mazing Sutton Foster!
Money, Money, Money from the movie version of Mamma Mia because I love Meryl Streep so much!
and now its time to go Broadway crazy... feel free to x out if you're not a showtunes kind of person! These are mostly my current favorites :) My taste in musicals changes a lot... I mostly get really obsessed with what's currently on broadway and such.
Anything Goes from Anything Goes 2011 Revival starring Sutton Foster
Brotherhood of Man from How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying starring Daniel Radcliffe
Mamma Who Bore Me/Bitch of Living/Totally Fucked from Spring Awakening starring Lea Michele (before she started to suck on Glee)
96,000 from In the Heights
21 Guns from American Idiot (yes Green Day made a musical!)
Memphis Lives in Me from Memphis
Pulled from The Addams Family
I think that's about it for now... I have many, many more favorites but you know... I can't put them all here haha... if you like this kind of stuff feel free to email me and ask me for recommendations! :)
So I'm a theatre geek and I really want the rest of the Broadway Collection polishes from OPI that came out forever ago (I don't even know the year). I finally fount RENT a while ago from Traci @ The Trace Face Philes blog sale and I had to get it.
Here's the purple
Here's the green!
Rent is a sheer green/purple duochrome. Its more of a layering polish in my option. It is so pretty! This is 2 coats of Rent over 1 coat of Wet n' wild Black Creme.
And now being the theatre geek I am, I must leave you with the song RENT from the musical Rent :) If you haven't seen anything RENT related... please check it out! I promise its awesome!
(p.s. the blonde hottie in this video is Will Chase. He's going to be on NBC's Smash a new show about Broadway coming in February!)
