I love avocado, turquoise and bright orange in decor! of course, i am a total sucker for anything retro and 60′s/70′s – avocado green couches, bell bottoms, hoop earrings etc…I wish I lived through these 2 decades, but I digress.

Cords is an old tired pearl taupe that has been made so many times over, it’s not unique or interesting at all. I do love other China Glaze collections, but this one – despite the name, I will pass on.

Today is the first time I’ve actually used Cords when the sun is shining (spring has been non-existent in the Great NW) and how com no one mentioned that the shimmers are multi-colored? Subtle, but multi none the less. As I wingle my nails in this glorious light from the sky I see tiny particles of blue, green, hot pink, purple…maybe even a random orange or two. What was boring in February is awesome now. Glad I revisited.

By the time 1970 rolled around the whole avocado, rust, turquoise thing was pretty much passe. I graduated in ’74 and by then people were so tired of those colors they were all being remodeled out of existence. Greens had lightened up and lost the brown undertones and the young crowd was drawing on the brighter and more pure primary/secondary colors seen in the typical tie dye of that time period.

Short & Sassy reminded me of OPI’s Royal Rajah Ruby! But of course RRR is much darker though.

I find them not bad… duh I was going to place an order for sexy divide but now I wonder if i won't wait again a couple weeks to get let's groove, it looks so pretty. Short and Sassy is pretty too. I would have kept the 70's theme for a spring/summer colorful collection, 50's or 60's I'd have understood but 70's not quite.

Oh my goodness, I have to have Let's Groove!! It is gorgeous, and it definitely appeals to the purple polish fan in me!! It does seem to look a little bit like MAC Wildfire though. Either way I have to have it!!

I also like Stroll. Since I did miss out on the FingerPaints LE this would definitely be the next best thing!

Can't wait to see the rest of the swatches! Thanks

How about Cords vs. Chanel Kaleidoscope? I know it's not quite a dupe but I'm curious as to whether it provides the same effect.
