Euro Centrale by OPI Spring/Summer 2013 Collection

Classic meets contemporary with Euro Centrale by OPI for Spring/Summer 2013. Celebrating a region where history meets modern design, the collection’s twelve new nail lacquers offer a mixture of glamorous metallic hues; playful bright shades in periwinkle, aqua and pink; and creamy blues in indigo, midnight and aubergine.

“Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Romania make up an exciting new fashion hotspot,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “When visiting these countries, you’ll view Gothic churches alongside vibrant graffiti murals, blending two very different aesthetics. This fusion of old and new was also seen in runway looks during New York Fashion Week, where classic styles were reinvented with modern silhouettes and patterns.

“Euro Centrale boasts a wide variety of shades, ranging from pale nude to deep blue – and featuring everything from shimmering copper to aqua in between!,” continues Weiss-Fischmann. “Whether you’re looking to spice up a black and white print, or add neutrality to a vivid brocade, these lacquers are designed to accessorize spring’s hottest looks.”

I’m obviously an OPI fan as evidenced on my blog, but this collection caught my interest because of the tribute it presents. Being of Romanian decent of course I was interested to see what was hot in the region – how fun!  The colors are full of punch, attitude and style.

Euro Central by OPI consists of the following shades as seen above:

Polka.com – Blue and violet are dancing partners in this glittery combo.
OPI…Eurso Euro – This deep blue cream is very continental.
Suzi’s Hungary AGAIN! – Thank goodness there are zero calories in this warm and yummy pink!
You’re Such a BudaPest – If I let you borrow this periwinkle-purple, will you go away?
Can’t Find My Czechbook – I hope you take credit, because I must have this aqua!
My Paprika is Hotter than Yours! – Get the extinguisher…this fiery red is sizzling!
Hands Off My Kielbasa! – Get your own…this bronzy tan is all mine!
OY–Another Polish Joke! – So this shimmery-gold walks into a bar…
A Woman’s Prague-ative – I’m changing this shimmery copper for…never mind!
Vant to Bite My Neck? – You know you want to…wear this deep eggplant.

Of all the colors, I Saw…U Saw…We Saw…Warsaw (seriously, the names OPI chooses are awesome!) is my favorite.  The lacquer goes on as a rich navy hue, yet bright enough that it doesn’t look gothic, more like glam!  This color works for everyday wear with denim and you can dress it up for evening wear with complimentary jewelry and bright colors.

Euro Centrale by OPI will be available February 6, 2013, at Professional Salons and spas for $10.95 CAN suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.
