Mariah Carey is back and bigger than ever after
landing the prime position as one of
American Idol’s newest judges
(alongside Kieth Urban and Nicki Minaj!).
This season of Idol promises to be filled with big talent
and even bigger drama, and we can’t wait to start watching. So just in time for
the show’s season premiere (which is happening tonight, Jan. 16, at 8 p.m. ET/PT
on FOX), we’ve decided to honor the
original diva in dazzling, all-American style.
When OPI announced that Mimi would be fronting their
latest OPI Mariah Carey Collection,
we knew this set of lacquers would be filled with sophisticated shades and
sparkly, glitter-bombs!
We can’t wait to start donning our tips in this fabulous
polish, but until then we need to decide what exactly we wanna wear with it!
Read on for three totally tripped out getups to match MC’s new shades…and make
you feel like a star while you’re at it.
GL loves “Sprung” from Mariah Carey’s OPI line. The
lacquer is a stunning dark red/brown color with glitzy bronze flecks to sparkle
up your mani. This polish has “diva” written all over it, so you’ll need an
equally high-fashion outfit to match. We love the look of a preppy red skirt
with a pretty rose ring, mixed with edgy pieces like a black crop top, studded
leather jacket and studded flats.

Sparkle and
shine in OPI’s “Pink Yet Lavender” nail polish inspired by none other than
Mariah Carey herself! This glitzy polish promises to leave your claws
absolutely dazzling. It’s pretty sparkly so feel free to tone down your outfit
with flare jeans and a peplum top. We recommend minimal accessories (not to
take away from the nails’ sparklies), like a sweet and girly flower ring or
golden bangle. Knee-high brown boots tie the whole look together and give your
outfit the ultimate “wow” factor.

Get ready to go glam in OPI’s “A Butterfly Moment” nail
polish. This soft, pastel pink shade gives your nails a girly vibe and will
look great with almost everything in your wardrobe. We’d love to wear pale pink
skinny jeans and a bold, divalicious golden jacket with this. As for accessories? It’s all about a
Victorian era-inspired cameo ring, pretty stacked pearl bracelet and funky
studded boots.
