OPI Holiday 2011 – THE MUPPETS Preview
It’s time to play the musicIt’s time to light the lights It’s time to meet the Muppets on the Muppet Show tonight Oh.My.Gosh!! The Muppets are partnering with OPI. Let me repeat. THE MUPPETS ARE PARTNERING WITH OPI!!! I can’t even begin to tell you how thrilled I am over this news. I tend to love OPI’s Holiday collections more than any other in the whole year but with the Muppets involved I’m already calling it THE collection of 2011. As a kid I lived for Sunday nights when The Muppet Show would come on and I still have my Kermit and Miss Piggy puppets from way back then. I seriously worship the genius of the late Jim Henson and watched anything he was involved with; Labyrinth, Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas, The Tale of the Bunny Picnic, Fraggle Rock. I seriously freaked out when I saw Bean Bunny at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Don’t judge I also cried when I met Tigger! What? |
Anyway, I know this is a LONG time out but I just had to post about it. The reported color names are:
Animal-istic
Meep-Meep-Meep (can you even stand how cute this sounds?)
Wocka Wocka!
Pepe’s Purple Paassion
Designer…de Better!
Warm & Fozzie
Rainbow Connection (We sang this in elementary school)
Excuse Moi!
Gone Gonzo!
Fresh Frog of Bel Air
Divine Swine
Gettin’ Miss Piggy With It!
Please tell me there are others as excited over this news as I am? Who is your favorite Muppet character? And where’s the love for Janice?
***EDITED TO ADD – While I do not have an official release date, based on previous OPI Holiday launches, I would expect to see these on shelves no later than November 1st, 2011. Burlesque was pushed up to October 1st so that is a possibility as well.

[...] now imagine my delight when I heard that OPI Nail Polishes are debuting a holiday collection filled with glitter, bright colors and amazing names like [...]
I. Love. Muppets. I can’t even wait, the names alone will make me buy sooo many!
I can’t wait to see these colours!
I could just squeal! This collection is incredible and I’m so excited. Miss Piggy was the best role model a little girl could have. She was strong, not anorexic and had ultimate confidence. I can’t wait to get my thirsty fingers wrapped around each one of these bottles!
omg i DIE!!!!!! this just made my entire YEAR!!! im obsessed i need these NOW!!! omg omg omg so excited!!!!
I am making a commitment to save my nail polish budget from now until these finally hit the stores, because I ~really~ want them. One of my nail besties and I spent like an hour discussing the colors this collection SHOULD have, like twin red-oranges in different finishes for skeeter and scooter, and a red/warm orange/warm gold glitter party for Sweetums. Wouldn’t you DIE for a color like that?!
Anyway, yes, we is excited.
Hey no negativity from me! I was listening to the new Muppets Green Album on Spotify and singing along to Rainbow Connection!!
Can’t wait to see swatches of these!!!
And I *love* all of Henson’s work too…I have to watch Emmet Otter EVERY Christmas. It’s even a book! But I forgot all about the Bunny Picnic!
Thanks for the smile
OMG I can’t wait for these! Jim Henson holds a special place in my heart since I graduated from UMD where he was a grad as well.
I MUST have all the glitters!!! Looking forward to the Kermit glitter the most, I don’t have a green glitter yet!
But OMG can’t wait!
I am sooooo excited for the release of this collection! I loved the muppets and im hoping my daughter will too so i can live through her lol!!!!
According to my rep where I get my beauty supplies for work from she said its October 1st for the release!!! Im hoping shes right!
Yeeeiiiii the Muppets! Today I stop by my local beauty supply store and they already have them
but for the moment I only purchase warm & fuzzie and pepe’s purple passion which is the color that I recomend besides all the glitters 
. I’ve never been so exited with n e Opi collection like this one and is because i grew up with these muppet characters in Mexico. And now the muppets movie after the smirfs doesn’t these movies take u back to ur child hood memories?? 
Ooh and my fav. R Fuzzie and Ganzo!
I checked out the Muppets today. I wasn’t all that impressed. Which sucks b/c I loooove OPI. BUT, I did find these great colors today: Milani Breezy, OPI An Affair in Red Square (almost out of 1st bottle), Swimsuit..Nailed It!, ChG Ruby Pumps, Paper Chasing, and For Audrey, and Essie Dive Bar.
I am currently wearing Swimsuit on my fingers and Dive Bar on my toes. I CANNOT stop looking at Swimsuit. What an amazing color!!! Thanks Michelle for the intro to it, and all the other amazing colors!!!
