Feast your eyes on the OPI Hawaii collection. I have lots of photos and swatches too!! And keep reading for some OPI Fifty Shades of Grey goss!

It’s literally an explosion of colour but in a really good way! There are some instant favourites and I think the bright creamy coral, Aloha, is going to be huge! Without further ado, let’s have a quick look at the swatches, then I’ll show you all the shades up close and personal.

See? Stunning aren’t they?! I actually had trouble choosing and went for a bit of a combination with a nail art twist. Not 100% about the combo, but I like it all the same!!
