Fall Nail Polish

My Top 5 Fall Nail Colors!!! 


1. Honk if you love OPI

This is suchhhhhh an amazing color!!! I am a huge fan of the deep purples for the fall. I really have never been daring enough to go all they way, and do a black but i love colors that almost look black from far away. This purple is a really creamy dark plum and its so stunning. 

2. Road House Blues

This color happens to be from the same collection as Honk if you love OPI (Touring AMERICA) its the 2011 Fall collection and i LOVE so many of them.  I think this royal blue is such a fun pop and its so playful for fall. 

3. Limited Addiction by Essie 

Again this polish is so stunning and i think adds a great touch to a more muted outfit. This color will look amazing with any skin tone.  Its the perfect red for fall! 

4. Lacy Lilac by Sally Hansen  

Many might think that you have to go all dark and vampy for the fall time. I agree thats classic and there are so many amazing deep shades.  However i think the perfect light color adds and unexpected pop to look.  I really like this one because it still has a light grey undertone. 

5. Taunting Teal by Sonia Kashuk

I love love love this color for fall!!!! It's an amazingggg deep teal that will look great on any one!! It will get people looking trying to see just what color it really is! I think the name fits it well. 

Comment telling me your fav fall shades! :)

TREND TIME: Fall Edition

Fall Trends
Hey girls and guys!! So I don't know about you but i loveeee fall! Its so cozy and the trends are always soooo cute and trendy. I love adding different trends to my personal style. 
This fall there are many trends I have been seeing on the runways and in the magazine's that can be altered to fit into your everyday style. Adding touches of different trends are a great way to update your style with out spending thousands on a whole new wardrobe. 
  1. Crimson Eye Shadow


I love love love this look for the fall! Its so stunning and really warms up every ones eyes. No matter what color eyes you have this is going to look AH-MAZING on you. You can make it more dramatic by working the shadow into your crease as well as on your eyelid. Or keep in more simple and put it right on your lid and carry it under your eye (on your lower lash line).

Here are a few of my fav Crimson Shadows:

Rule by MAC (matte)

Mythology by MAC (lustre)
  
Copper/Crimson Shadow in Dazzling Metallics Cover Girl Trio #119

2.                                                                          Peek-a-Boo



Lace has been popping up all over different clothing items and i love it!!! Its really girly and sweet. I have seen this trend on sweaters, shirts and even jeans! No matter what store you go to i think you will be able to something with this trend. I got this purple shirt at Macy's for $19.99. This shirt has the lace detailing just in the back and i think it transforms a simple shirt it to a very cute one. A hit of lace is sexy with out being over the top, you want to give then somethin to think about ...right?!     


3.                                                                       Girls Gone Wild

A splash of animal print is so hot, and really big this time of year. It adds an unexpected pop to any outfit. My fav print is by far leopard, i'm very against using real furs and prints...i think there are so many other options. Thats a rant for another time. I think adding the animal print to your outfit with a killer pair of heels like the ones above is KILLER! <3 However there are soooo many great ways to add this trend into your closet. I have seen animal print blazers, bags, shirts, scarves and so much more! So yes you can spend a fortune of a pair of animal print Louis Vuitton heels or find a cheeper option some were like forever 21, amiclubwear.com, and really any department store.  

Hope this was helpful!! Please comment and let me know if you like the "Trend Time" kind of posts. 

Thanks so much! <3 xoxo Sarah
