O.P.I Germany Collection Fall 2012- Part One

Hello lovely readers!! 

  Today I have the first part of O.P.I's Germany Collection for Fall 2012. This collection is made up of 12 fantastic Fall inspired shades. Six cremes, Six vampy shimmers. Today I will be showing you the creme portion of the collection. There is a nice range of classic and unusual with these shades and that is always a plus in any collection. 
To see close- up shots just continue reading ♥.
O.P.I Don't Pretzel my Buttons
 Don't Pretzel my Buttons is a fantastic, Sandy toned beige creme. I was worried that it would be far too Yellow for my skin tone but, guess what?! It is just perfect, it just enough Brown in it to make it flattering! I love Fall nudes done well and this one is right on the money. Formula-wise this shade gave me no issues and did great in Two coats.

O.P.I My Very First Knockwurst
   My Very First Knockwurst is a light Pink toned beige creme with a slight hint of smokiness. Another great Fall nude. The formula on this shade is great and easy to work with. I only needed Two coats for full even coverage.

O.P.I Berlin Done That
Berlin Done That is your classic Fall Putty Greige. Remember You Don't Know Jaques? Make it a bit lighter and Grayer and you have Berlin Done That. I LOVE shades like this and never get sick of them. They always flatter and they are always chic. The best part? They flow seamlessly from season to season. I used two coats for this swatch.

O.P.I Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!
Nein!Nein!Nein! Ok Fine is a deep, deep Grey creme with a slight deep Green undertone. This is like if Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow and Suzi Skis in the Pyrenees got together and had a creamy baby you'd get this shade. This is Fall perfection right here.

O.P.I Don't Talk Bach to Me
 Don't Talk Back to Me is my new favorite ugly-pretty go to color. I freaking LOVE this shade. Unusual, bold and just a bit out there. DTBTM is an amazing Chartreuse creme laced with delicate Silver shimmer. Just enough to take the base color out of murky territory. This color has a great Two coat formula.

O.P.I Schnapps Out of It
 Schnapps Out of It is another unusual shade. In my notes I have several descriptions for this color... The one I landed on was "dirty Coral" laced with some ultra fine Silvery shimmer. This color has had a mixed reaction from bloggers and I personally still don't know how I feel about it. On the one hand the color is pretty flattering on my skin tone, on the other... It's just a weird color... Formula wise this color was the best in this half. I could have almost done with just one coat but I did Two.

  Overall, I am pretty pleased with this half of the collection. I like that there are some nice classic, full coverage nudes, a sultry deep shade and some more unusual colors for those of us who are just a little out there. O.P.I never disappoints in the formula department and even less with the naming. How punny are the names?! Just LOVE it. I can't wait to show you guys the vampy shimmer half of this collection because there are some truly memorable colors in that line-up. Colors, I feel, we will look back on years from now and still "oooh and ahhhh" at how amazing they are/were.

What are your thoughts on this half?
