1. It stars Natalie Wood, whom I love!
2. It stars Rosalind Russell , who I have loved ever since I saw "Auntie Mame"
3. I love the old burlesque style of stripping, it was classy, and it had mystery and flare!
So of course I love the song "Let me entertain you", sung at the time by Natalie Wood (who honestly can not sing), and I loved the costumes and numbers she performed to this song in the movie! Here is the old movie trailer.
Sooo that brings me to OPI's "Burlesque" Collection...and my NOTD..OPI's "Let me entertain you"
2 coats, topped with Seche Vite!
Look at all that "glitz and glamour"...gorgeous!
This was an easy 2 coats. The formula was great, no problems, just bright shining fuchsia with hot pink micro-glitter...gorgeous!
In low light the colors are deeper and more raspberry, but the glitter within shines for ALL TO SEE! Lights...Camera...Action! :):)
Have a great Friday everyone!
Maybe I told you this, but I was in the Charleston Light Opera Guild (WV) production on Gypsy back in 1990 - you know who played Gypsy Rose Lee? Jennifer Garner, yes!
ReplyDeleteI had a bunch of small roles...nothing major, although I was the understudy for Baby Louise (older).
I bought this color for the same reason!

That is gorgeous, maybe I need to break down and get it!! Gypsy is one of my favorite movies- I love Natalie Wood.
ReplyDeleteI'm lost never heard of the movie. I guess I need to get out more. Lol!! I'll do some research on it.
ReplyDeleteThe polish is gorgeous though :D
LOVE this on you! You need more pinks!
ReplyDelete@scandalous- Yes, I have been working on buying and swapping more pinks and reds...as if I need more polishes..LOL!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I picked this polish, too!! and it's sooo pretty on you :)
ReplyDeleteTidbit for You - I just saw yesterday that they're thinking about remaking the Gypsy movie with Barbra Streisand as Rose? No clue who they'd cast as Gypsy yet.
@Andi- That's GREAT news, I love Barbra...awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis looks awesome on you! And trailer made my day (I love Gypsy)...watching it secretly at my desk while I wait for 5PM to arrive!
ReplyDeleteAuntie Mame is one of my favorite movies! And OPI Let Me Entertain You is currently my favorite polish. Both discovered in the past few months. I'll definitely be adding Gypsy to my Netflix queue.
ReplyDeleteI was watching Gypsy today (again). I love that movie 2. I love how burlesque is so much more than stripping, it's art. I always say I want to be Dita von Teese when I grow up. lol.
ReplyDeletePink really does look great on you.
