The Polish Addict’s Top 20 Polishes of All Time: #20 OPI – Tickle My France-y
Twice a year, the girls on the Nail Board vote for their top 20 polishes. I’ve been promising you guys my personal top 20 for a while and I’m finally getting around to it. My top 20 has some classics in it but there are also a few colors that people might not expect. First up is # 20, this year’s OPI Tickle My France-y.
This color is so subtle, so chic, just perfect. As completely ridiculous as this may sound, I rarely wear colors more than once but I’ve worn OPI Tickle My France-y a whopping 3 times. This color has become my go-to ‘professional’ color. As some of you may know, I’m applying for a position as an Assistant State Attorney. It’s a 3 round interview process. I’ve worn TMFy to two of the interviews already and plan to wear it one more time this Monday for my final interview. I almost feel like this color gives me confidence, maybe even a little bit of luck. If I get the job on Monday, I guess we’ll know for sure. Even if TMF-y isn’t bestowed with magical job granting powers, it’s still an excellent color. It definitely belongs in everyone’s collection. (You can read my original post about TMF here.)

I agree! A beautiful colour, I have also worn it a few times :D

Oh man, you’re only gonna give us piccys one at a time? rotfl. I’m such an addict!
That is a beautiful color though!!

I have to agree with Mariah, if you’re going to give us 20 of the best colors ever (that is if we share the same tastes, but I don’t think you like any weird polish anyway ^^ Does that even exists ? :p) you’re also turning me into a complete addict !
Wait… I’m already addicted anyway, your blog name was so carefully chosen ^^
I like this one, and yay for “France” XD (okay I know there’s no relation ^^)
Thank you Stephanie !

Good luck with your job interview! I’ll be thinking about you.

TMF is my favorite as well! I just bought a back up yesterday….it’s so perfect and for some reason, I think it is the smoothest polish I’ve encountered. Especially for a nude/sheer pink. I love it. Would you be able to compare it to the Misa High Waist Hue? I’ve got that one but I haven’t compared it yet…it looks similar but not quite……
Thanks for your beautiful pix as always! (=

How funny! I’m wearing TMF right now. My favorite nude creme of all time!
November 20th, 2008 at 7:38 am
Good luck on the third! You’ll knock em dead :) And I also love TMF, sooo pretty!
November 20th, 2008 at 7:47 am
Aww, good luck! TMFy is the polish I plan on using for grad school interviews – I hope it has a little bit of luck in there for us both!

Looks like a very nice color, I don’t have this one. Knock em dead at your interview:)

TMF looks so perfect against your skintone!

I haven’t commented in a while but wanted to say good luck Monday! I got my dream job right out of graduate school as well. It happens! and I’m convinced it’s all about the nail color- 3rd interview is a good sign, hopefully TMF will keep up its mojo. <3

I got OPI You’re A Doll and Glamour Game based on your reviews here, and I am so ridiculously pleased with them I am on the brink of running off to get TMF. Good luck with the job interview! I really, really hope you get it. :)

Has it happened before or is it just my usual luck?

How weird is that? I haven’t worn this polish since I got it. I put it on and click on your site and voila! I do love it. Today I gave it a layer of sparkle and its so pretty. All the best with your interview.
November 24th, 2008 at 2:41 am

I completely agree about TMF!! I work in government so I need a reliable nude that’s nearly-not-there and this one is just the perfect match with my skintone. OPI rocks!
