It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! was a tradition in my childhood home for years and years (actually, I think my mom still keeps up with the tradition). While I know that it is a bit too early for Halloween posts, I couldn't pass up this little gem...
 
 
OPI is releasing a Halloween 2014 collection inspired by Peanuts! They are re-creating Charles M. Schulz's comic strip characters and bringing them to life through nail colors. I am so, so excited for this collection! 
 
 
Peanuts by OPI will feature four shades in tribute to a few of the most beloved Peanuts characters. There will be both a seasonal black and yellow, as well as two black-based glitter hues. 
 
 
 
From the press release regarding the collection:
 
‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown’ is a classic, beloved film,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Co-Founder & Brand Ambassador. “Peanuts by OPI celebrates the fun, youthful nature of Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus and Snoopy with four limited edition nail lacquer shades designed to capture the spirit of Halloween. With two crème and two glitter options, you can switch between a cheery yellow or chic black look, or try adding a layer of glitter for a unique finish.”
 
 
 
 
 
 
How incredibly perfect for Halloween?! 
 
We usually see Orange and Black for Halloween, but this year it's all about the Charlie Brown in-your-face yellow!  
 
 

The four shades:








Good Grief!- "The sunny yellow of Charlie Brown's favorite t-shirt"








To Be or Not To Beagle- "Snoopy's happy-dance of colors in a joyful glitter."








WHO ARE YOU CALLING BOSSY?!?-"This stormy black is no match for Lucy's raven hair."








 Where's My Blanket???- "Linus awaits the Great Pumpkin in this orange and black glitter."









With the adorably cute names and fun, festive colors, Peanuts by OPI is sure to be a huge hit for Halloween 2014. I cannot wait to get my hands on it! Unfortunately, I still have a little while longer to go; the collection will be released in September. 

Still not convinced? Take a look at another statement from swatchandlearn.com (her PR sent her the official statements found above and also below):


"Each of the four shades is also available in the Little Peanuts mini pack, which is sold with ten nail decals ranging from popular Peanuts phrases like “Good Grief!” and “Pow!” to sketches of Snoopy and the signature squiggle of Charlie Brown’s shirt. “These stickers offer a playful, kitschy way to add instant art to nails,” adds Weiss-Fischmann. “My favorite decal pays tribute to Snoopy’s many kisses – ‘Smak!’”







Just when I thought the collection couldn't get any cuter they had to go and throw the mini's and nail decals at us. This is a must-have for Halloween. I can already hear the compliments rolling in. ;)

Please stay tuned for my own swatches of each color. They will be posted in September.
