essie Winter 2015

We all know how wonderful essie’s colour collections are, and the Winter Collection is no exception.

The shades are unexpected, but that’s because it’s a northern hemisphere winter collection – meant for Christmas and festive season parties. I personally love a bit of Christmas in July, so this range suits me just fine.

The press release says “’tis the season for self-gifting”, which, once you see the colours, is a concept we can all get behind.

There are two token red shades; as well as a off-white. The unexpected element comes in the form of two peach hues. The collection is completed with addition of a gold glitter.

Jump In My Jumpsuit – jubilant juicy red

Double Breasted Jacket – passionate tourmaline red

Bump Up The Pumps – raucous coral mauve (* I don’t have this shade, but tart Deco is similar)

Jiggle Hi, Jiggle Low – molten gold

Back In The Limo – sheer ripe melon

Tuck It In My Tux – silken ivory crème

You’ll find the collection in selected Dis-Chem, Clicks and Foschini stores.
