80’s Party, NAILVARNISH DETECTIVE/HUNTING DOWN ‘THE’ COLUMBO SHADE/MIND OVER MAYHEM

Ironic as it is a 70’s shade left over from the 70’s.

Was browsing 80’s nailvarnish colours when I discovered an Avon shade that is close to one of my favourite nail varnish colours when I was teaching. I discovered it from watching re – runs of Columbo it is a really nice browny, pinky, beige. Actually not sure what colour it is but I like it very much.

They aren’t identical, but there are a lot of shades like this that are similar. Really stylish if you are wanting to look classic at work, but not boring.

Found a few colours similar to this hence the blog.

Got this in my Barry M set so did an 80’s Manicure for you.

Hope this brings back memories for you and you can at least actually still buy this shade.

A skirt, blouse or dress would be nice in the background pattern if it was classic style that fits.

This reminds me of shopping in H and M wearing this shade of nailvarnish.

Like her shoes and bangles too.

The Actress I was inspired by is Jessica Walters.

I actually found the Columbo episode and not sure the nailvarnish colour is in it. Noticing mistakes I make more clearly now like what I thought were pink perfumes actually being clear.

And purchasing nailvarnish from this episode of Columbo when she wasn’t wearing nailvarnish?

I think it must be her shade of lipstick as she isn’t wearing nailvarnish. Wonder if I just imagined the colour that would match her outfit.

This episode actually exists, amazed I found it.

Mind Over Mayhem 1974

Go figure it out from the bot.

Columbo modelling the oversized trench coat for women of 2026.

This episode is 1974, interesting how the shade was still around in the 80’s bad taste era of fashion.

Someone must of looked after the classic woman style market unlike now, you have to make your own clothes and try and make your own lipstick colours.

At least we still have nailvarnish.

The lipstick goes really well with her jumper colour.

Conclusion

Jessica Walter is very attractive, stylish and her makeup looks great.

She has created a detour from an era I don’t like in fashion.

Found her in the 80s which sums up the hideous oversized fashion of the era.

True to my memory problems of late I can’t actually find her wearing nailvarnish.

Worried about my mind now, but at least I’m noticing the mistakes, maybe from blogging.

I think the nailvarnish was Covergirl from Woolworths.

Classic style needs to come back to balance out the trends and classic lipstick that suits everyone.

Noticed no one looks smart at work anymore due to weird shaped fashion and wearing boots that are too big for them.

Mayhem meaning

confused activity or excitement, sometimes involving destructive violence:

The movie includes a considerable amount of violence and mayhem.
