I love the colour! It's a beautiful lavender. Some lights make it look blue, others grey, but mostly its a cool purple.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this color! Usually, I keep things fairly toned down, but thought I would step out on the wild side with this one. And I did, but the reason I love it is it didn't take me toooo far over to the wild side. It's a beautiful purpley blue, not pastel, understated, and just gorgeous. I am so glad I gave this one a try. Highly reccommend! Especially for the conservative types like me. :-)

I got this as part of the mini POTC collection (I just wanted ST and S&G). I wasn't expecting to like it but surprisingly I kinda do. It's an unsaturated purple but not pastel. This could be fun under silver or black crackles. Smooth coverage in 2 coats.

Planks A Lot is a purple creme polish that has a lot of blue/grey tone. It's a sort of lilac/lavender color. This color is darker than Done Out In Deco. It's a very cool tone base color. I find this color suits cooler skin tone as my skin tone is quite warm. However, it won't hurt to change sometimes.
The application is quite easy although the first coat is quite watery and uneven. But after the second coat, it becomes opaque and dries really quickly. I like this color and will buy this one again.

I am in LOVE with this color! I've been looking for a paler cream purple and haven't been able to find a good one, then when I saw the Pirates collection and saw one, I was completely stoked, and I was NOT let down! It's a gorgeous color and applies like a dream. First coat is a little streaky, but another coat or two makes it perfect. I may have to grab another bottle to have when my first one runs out because I know I'm going to be wearing this a lot!

I really like this color. When I first saw the collection pictures I knew I'd be getting this color. I love purples and I don't have many creme purples. I did 3 coats and no streaks. drying time was pretty good too. Right now I have it under silver shatter but I will def wear this on it's own.

WOW! I wanted a really beautiful, hazy lavender/periwinkle & that's exactly what this is. In the bottle, it's absolute perfection and on the nails it's even better. This is part of the OPI Pirates of the Caribbean collection! I bought it to put under the Silver Shatter ~ but honestly, I think I like it better on it's own.

Only slight gripe, it's streakier than most of the OPI polishes; however, 2 coats cover perfectly, but when you hold nails up to the light, you can still see the streaks. Maybe I'll try 3 coats next time.

If Funky Dunkey and Done Out in Deco had a wild night without the use prophylactics, the end result would be this polish. That being said, I love both of those colors, and their progeny is just as lovely. This is a mid tone lilac-blueish purple with a touch of grey. I enjoy my purples with virtually no-red (I know that technically this cannot be done...but you know what I mean!). I like a smoky purple color a WHOLE lot...and what I get in this is a summery mid-tone blue-smoky purple. This was $8.50 at ULTA. This is a part of the OPI Pirates of the Caribbean collection.
