For Fall/Winter 2003, nails are an important beauty focus, with nail color setting the stage for a fabulous fashion season of both rich and soft color, sumptuous fabrics and fresh new combinations! The British Collection by OPI complements the season's fresh new looks with colors ranging from bold, deep, Big City reds to softer, more heathered purples and pinks - shades that capture the excitement of London and the softness of the English countryside!

The style buzz in fabulous, fashionable London this season is a new direction in color and shape. City-savvy jackets and pants in traditional "menswear" fabrics, including wool pinstripes and tartan plaids, are softened by the contrast of "touchable luxury" in velvets, fluid stone-washed satin, cashmere and buttery soft leather. Color choices include black and blackened shades of gray, navy, wine and olive, contrasted with lighter spring-like tones of mint, dusty pink and misty lavender, the color of Scotland's heathery fields!

The mod mini skirt - born in London! - is big this season, teamed with skinny turtleneck sweaters and go-go boots or worn with fitted, braod-shouldered jackets. For the trouser crowd, hip huggers from pencil thin to to cargo style make a showing, as well as high-waisted pants cinched with a chunky belt. Watch for opulent shades of warm red and rich brown softened by golden moss, camel and soft plums and berries.

Remember that beautiful nails make any fashion look even more perfect. And The British Collection by OPI, is the jewel in the fashion crown! Click Here to Shop.
