So I am flipping through the David Jones department store catalogue this morning, and my jaw dropped when I saw this new line of "whip-cracking" OPI nail lacquer. Some may say this is a tribute to Texas, but I cry abomination.
"Its Totally Fort Worth It?" Mildly irritating.
"Do You Think I'm Tex-y?" Ugh, nauseating.
They forgot the "Now" in the "Y'all Come Back Ya Hear?"
"Don't Mess With OPI?" Btch Pls.
"I Don't Want to be A-Lone Star?" Whoever wrote this is destined for a life of solitude.
"HOUSTON WE HAVE A PURPLE?!?!?!"
I took the liberty of scanning in the magazine so you could see how silly it looks.
Now upon further research, I found out that this line is not just in Australia, but is international. As a girl who is heavily rooted in Texas, I am so embarrassed that this campaign is reducing a place with so much personality to these silly, cliche nail polish names. And yes, in Australia they cost $19.95 a bottle!
