Sorry, sorry, sorry- I've been gone a while now!! This post is something I wish I wasn't posting. I purchased Guy Meets Galveston and Big Hair Big Nails from the OPI Texas collection for summer. And they are so so so similar. What a waste of 8 bucks! Now don't get me wrong- they are not dupes- but I definitely did not need BOTH! They're both coral sorbet jellies. I can barely tell the difference between the two!!! I like Guy Meets Galveston just a little bit better. Because it's just a little bit different.
I'm only posting one bottle shot because they came out identical. The first one is Guy Meets Galveston- I don't know why I didn't take a better pic. Oh well- the second is Big Hair Big Nails and the thumb is reflecting really weird but at least it's a great picture compared to the other. Honestly this is such a bad post because of that pic- I'll definitely do a reswatch when I next wear it.

Pros and Bronze Swatch (Post 16)
Ooooh how I love this color! I'll have Love is a Racket up soon! This is Pros and Bronze from the recent Serena Williams duo pack. (Speaking of duo packs- I went 2 Ulta 2day 2 buy my number one best friend nail polish and promised I wouldn't buy anything because I just bought 5 nail polishes online on Sunday but then I saw the OPI duo pack with the Zom-body to love glow in the dark polish and black shatter. OOPS!) The Serena duo pack is 14.95 and is avaliable at most Ulta's.
This is a fine glitter with pink, red, orange and of course, bronze glitter. It has this amazing duochrome effect even though if you ask me, its not a duochrome at all. It's sososo beautiful and I have to get my hands on red shatter just for this polish. My swatches (I am posting two for this one, don't know why) are amazing and true to my nail application skills here and are pulling super orange. It's ridiculous how orange. But its still pretty, even if it's not true to color.

But its still pretty, even if it's not true to color.
This polish is the whole reason I purchased the duo pack. It's gorgeous and almost exactly what I had been looking for (an orange-pink duochrome of awesomeness) but at the end of the day I love Love is A Racket so much more. As tennis is my main sport, I also love the whole tennis vibe. Anyways back to Love is A Racket, a very little known fact is that my favorite nail polish of the history of nail polishness until I purchased Love is A Racket was NYC Love Me Red Creme. Yup. I know. It's not OPI. Who are you and what have you done to Sierra? Well it's true, and I spent half my life looking for a beautiful OPI dupe. Then I buy this pack because I'm hellbent on getting the orange-fuschia duo-chrome and BAM! Love is A Racket becomes my favorite nail polish. It's similar all right but it no ways a dupe. It's redder, sparklier, glass flecked and has wayyyyyy less duochrome. But- I love it. So even though that story should have been included with Love is A Racket, it's not. Regardless, I love this nail polish so much! (btw it looks AWFUL layered over In My Back Pocket (an upcoming swatch) so never ever ever layer it. UGLY!) Love all of you and as always email me at sierraheartspolish@gmail.com and of course my commenting is still broken so keep the love coming because even if I can't comment you, I still read and love you all!

Into to Pirates and Sparrow Me the Drama Swatch (Post 14)
Yay! Pirates time! Now I know this is an older collection, which I apologize for, but I think these are such pretty colors that I just have to show them! Most of these were not done in bulk swatching and are much better quality. I'm starting with the worst swatch (Sparrow Me the Drama) and working my way up to stuff I am proud of! So here goes....
This is coming up so nude! And so matte! Grrr. My camera usually doesn't have too many issues but clearly, it doesn't like Sparrow Me the Drama, a pink from the Pirates collection that at many retailers, is still avaliable. It's glossy and pink and just beautiful! Not this awkward Snooki Bronzed Nude that is showing up here with matte matte matteness! It lasts quite well and I think is very well formulated though a tad on the runny side which of course, only I would notice. This is one of my favorite colors in the world and my number one go to pink (other than love is a racket) I know this was relatively brief for me bbut now that schools back in session, I have piles and piles of homework. I am babysitting again soon which means more money for polish and being with my favorite little kids in the world! (Most of my money comes from babysitting although I do have a small allowance which is great and helps) I will be ordering five new polishes sometimes next week although I haven't decided the exact one's, I'm kinda torn between two. So as always, leave me a comment and I'll try my best to respond or email me at sierraheartspolish@gmail.com

This is showing up super dusky and purple and grey. It is definitely a muted pink but honestly, as far as true to color goes, this is the worst post. You'll see why in a minute.
