black nail polish nation

wow i missed this article in the nytimes. crazy. i admit it, i went out and bought opi's "lincoln park after dark" and i love it.

"The black nail polish that is selling so well today is hardly the dark enamel worn by the freaky girl at the back of your English lit class. Unlike the Goth look, which resembles fingers dipped in soot, the new black is shinier, richer and deeper, with undertones of purple, silver or red.

The new blacks appear to be growing in popularity with young professional women who are daring enough to wear it to work, and it is the epitome of chic for night events.

“It used to be tall thin girls wearing black nail polish. Today I see women in the Beverly Hills bookstore with it on.”
"

J, did you get yours in the mail? Do others have it? Post your thoughts here!
