Coming in January, the Gwen Stefani by OPI collection "presents the latest in pigments and finishes, while combining elements of haute couture and street fashion." Among the seven limited-edition items:

- Over & Over A-Gwen: Stefani's signature OPI red is available in a boxed set that includes Swarovski black crystals and silver, gold and pewter studs in bar, square, diamond and circle shapes for creating unique nail designs. ($14.95)

- Love.Angel.Music.Baby. and 4 in the Morning boast a "new, semi-matter satin finish designed to be worn without a top coat." ($9)
