Halle Berry, Olga Kurylenko, Rosamund Pike, Berenice Marlohe, Gemma Arterton (Getty, PacificCoastNews, Bauer Griffin)Cue Adele's Skyfall(looped on repeat, naturally) and cut to the chases. There's yet another beauty tribute going out the James Bond film franchise. More noteably, to the spy guy's ladyfriends — the Bond girls!

Today, OPI announced its launching a six-piece collection of Liquid Sand lacquers — only a daring finish could do for such dangerous ladies, right? — in honor of the franchise's 50-year anniversary. (They're perhaps just a wee bit late, even in the fashionable sense, on the celebration, but hey, we're not complaining!)

The textured matte-finish colors, named after some of the baddest Bond girls in the bunch, are drumroll omnious music, please...

(Above L-R): Vesper, a mysterious and intriguing deep purple; Solitaire, an diamond-sparkling white; Pussy Galore (they had to...), a light feminine pink with shimmer. (Below L-R): Tiffany Case, a classic light blue worth investigating; Jinx, a mesmerizing matte coral with a lucky sparkle; and Honey Ryder, a shimmery gold.

The collection will hit stores in May 2013 for $9 a bottle — but let's be honest, you really can't put a price on Bond girl glamour, can you?

The Jenesse Center is a domestic violence intervention program in South Los Angeles. The Center was founded in 1980 by five African American women who were survivors of domestic violence. The Silver Rose Weekend is the annual forum where Jenesse board members, staff, community leaders and Chairperson, Halle Berry, come together to honor those who make a difference. This year, the Jenesse Center chose to honor Halle Berry for her continuing support and contribution to the center.
