Serena Williams’ New Nail Polish Collection for OPI

After creating her first collection of nail polishes last year, Serena Williams is back for round two! The tennis superstar—who recently made an amazing recovery after undergoing an emergency operation for a hematoma—will release four brand new shades for her O.P.I. Glam Slam! collection, just in time for this year’s French Open. The new lineup includes a silver hue named Spark de Triomph, a gold-flecked Rally Pretty Pink, as well as a Shatter shade in new white and red variations, which produce an edgy, cracked effect. “Whether I’m on or off the court, style is important,” the tennis maven said in a statement. “The White Shatter and Red Shatter lacquers allow me to add a high-fashion take to the elegant silver and sunset-colored polishes.” Serena’s new Glam Slam! lineup is $15 for two polishes, and lands in stores May 1st.

After serving up two OPI nail polish collections, Serena Williams is back in the game, adding three brand new lacquers with her Glam Slam England set! The line celebrates England’s Wimbledon tournament, and includes the vivid purple Grape…Set…Match, the metallic pewter Your Royal ShineNess, and the glitter-packed Servin’ Up Sparkle. “For stand-out nails, I love experimenting with different glitter shades,” Williams said. “The new lacquers can be worn alone for a bright pop of color, or layered with Servin’ Up Sparkle to create a textured effect.” The Glam Slam England collection is in stores now, and sets of two sell for $14.50.

Spring's Rainbow nail color

I like yellow(Revlon in Sunshine Sparkle and Deborah Lippmann in yellow Brick Road) and lilac (Tracy Reese for Sally Hansen in Delphinium and Sephora by OPI in Casting Call) for spring. Hot pink(Sephora by OPI in Techno Girl and Sephora by OPI in How Cute Is That?), mint green(OPI in Mermaids Tears), and bright blue(Sephora by OPI Glee collection in Slushed) for summer.
I like pearl (Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour in Pearl Drop and SpaRitual in Lucy The Sky With Diamonds) is all season color! When I want neutral color I always try pearl with lots of shimmering.
I'm obsessed with OPI "Black Shatter." I'm so glad I got this bottle even if it's sold out everywhere now! OPI "Silver Shatter" is coming out sometime this month. The "Silver Shatter" would be great with mint green. I can't wait to try this!!!

Rainbow bright nail colors are fun to look at—and intimidating to try on. But thanks to a few key tips from Ji Baek, the owner of Rescue Beauty Lounge in N.Y.C., even the most shocking enamels can become wearable everyday accents. "Think of nail polish as an accessory, like a chunky necklace or a gorgeous handbag," Baek says. "You can make a statement without being flashy." So step away from the sheer pink and embrace the color storm, one shade at a time.

How to wear the colors:

• Yellow: "Yellow nail polish looks amazing with khaki and safari colors," Baek says, dubbing the look "army girl chic."
• Lilac: "If you're wearing lilac polish, you have to wear leather," Baek says. "The leather adds a hint of irony to a prim shade. Lilac softens the hard edge of the leather."
• Hot Pink: "Hot pink looks cute with an all-black outfit," says Baek. "Avoid the impulse to pair it with bright patterns or florals. Your look gets too busy."
• Pearl: "Look, not everyone is going to wear blue toes. If your comfort level is sheer pink, this is the shade for you," Baek says of the milky iridescent tone. "It's a beautiful safety zone color."
• Orange: "Orange is a tough shade to wear, but it's everywhere this year. Try it with a white T-shirt and jeans or any other crisp clean outfit," Baek says.
• Mint Green: "This is a very feminine color so pair it with a deep chocolate brown or an edgy gray," Baek says. "All the pastels colors look great with a punk rock twist."
• Bright Blue: "Wear blue polish with all white," Baek says. "It's fresh and summery."
