Don’t get me wrong, I love Vermont. I love the colorful, mild springs when all the flowers start to bloom. I love the warm summer weather when the temps rarely get too hot to handle. I love the golds and reds of the leaves in autumn. I do NOT, however, love the ice and snow. I often let the colors in nature guide me when I’m choosing my make up colors. I love picking fun nail polish colors to go with the yellow sun, the bright pink roses or the gold autumn leaves. This morning, as I listen to the freezing rain tap against the window, all I see out my front window is brown trees and white ice and snow.

Nail Polish Challenge
This morning, I have decided to let the weather choose my colors. The Holiday Tinsel nail polish collection from SinfulColors features six sparkling holiday inspired shades that are infused with glitter. This glitter gives your nails a just tinseled touch. Or, if you are looking out my window, it makes your nails resemble the freezing rain and ice outside. You can purchase the Holiday Tinsel nail polish collection from SinfulColors for only $1.99. They are available exclusively from Walgreens during the 2013 Holiday season.
The Holiday Tinsel collection includes:
- Silver Rainbows
- Spiked Ice
- Pink Icicles
- Cold as Ice (pictured)
- Tinsel Town
- Gold Tinsel
I think that the Gold Tinsel would work wonderfully in the fall and the Tinsel Town reminds me of the blue lake water at the beach. The Pink Icicles would match the pretty pink roses I have in my backyard in the spring, if spring actually ever gets here again. I’m having my doubts about that today. Today is definitely a Cold as Ice kind of day.
If you looked out your window right now, what colors would the weather choose for you? Leave a link as a comment below if you join in.

These look so fun! My daughter paints her nails and would love the snow one.
It’s a really fun polish!
That Sinful Colors collection certainly reminds me of Snow, right now it is sunny and the sky is clear, I’d probably go with a pretty aqua color.
I cannot wait until there are colors outside besides white and brown! I so miss summer!
The Cold as Ice polish definitely looks like snow! I bet it would be pretty as a top coat over something like blue or black. Pretty cheap too!
I definitely need to try it over blue! Thanks for the idea!
OOOOHHH, that’s a cool polish. It’s odd at first but then I just gazed on it and loved it!
LOL, Shelley. It different but fun too!
I love the idea of working with the seasons to choose your nail color and style. That style you are wearing is really cool (pun intended!)
It really is a cool polish. I’ve never seen anything like the Holiday Tinsel line.
Never realized there were so many choices – adorable!! Pinned & Tweeted!
Thanks, Jamie! They do have some cute shades.
That is some really cool nail polish. My daughters would love this.
It was fun to play with. They have some really neat colors!
That nailpolish is super fun!! I’m always attracted to things that are shiny and sparkle 🙂
I also love how you base your makeup and nail colors off the colors of nature-what a creative idea!
I thought it would be neat to do something different today!
Such fun colors and the way they are inspired. The cold as ice looks kind of funky, more like you scratched your nails with something, but at the same time I can totally see it as snow or ice as well. Funny! I like the pink icicles I think.
Pink would be fun to play with too. Maybe in the spring!
That’s a really fun idea! Never thought of letting the weather choose my color. I’ve always just stuck to the normal pinks and reds.
It was fun to do something different!
I love that polish! I picked it up the first day I saw it, and it’s ahhh-mazing over a medium-dark blue.
That’s a great idea, Greta! thanks!
I can relate! Living in Alaska all I saw was ice and snow out the window 9 months of the year. Not inspiring in the least! By the way, we are hand twins. That photo made me do an eerie double take because you and I not only have identical hands, but the same wedding band and engagement ring!
Snow can be so pretty but I am ready for spring!
there is certainly a lot of ice out there right now! I will be happy when the spring colors come back!
Me too, Diane!
Very cool – I think itis time for me to try something new
Thanks, Lena. It was definitely fun!
My daughters would love this set, especially Tinsel Town.
It really is cute!
It’s cold, but sunshiny today, so the Gold Tinsel would probably be most appropriate. I think I’d like it over a light coat of a solid color.
That does sound pretty!
I have gotten these nail polishes marked down at Walgreens for .50 each. There is so many colors to choose from and I love painting my nails. I think I hoard nail polish because I have over 25 bottles and they are brand new. I can not wait for Spring and warmer weather!!
That’s a great deal!
Today is a bright blue out. It would be fun color to wear!
You are very lucky! It’s cloudy here!
I love all these nail polish posts. My faves of this bunch are either of the tinsel colors. Christmas in July!
Thanks, Deb! it was fun to do.
