Fall Nail Polish

I'm not sure what my obsession with nail polish is about. I've written multiple blogs featuring nail polish, so now that it's a thing, I'm just going to go with it. That being said, here're some of my favorite fall nail happenings. I've already mentioned the Espresso color by OPI, so I'm not going to go into that again, but otherwise, there are some nice subdued purples, grays, teals and even pinks that are amazing this fall! I'm mostly into the grays, browns and purples, but really, they're all awesome.

Here's a peek at Essie's fall line:

  

My favorite in this line is definitely the gray, but I also love the cinnamon color and the berry color for something classic.

Here's a few MAC colors that are very lovely for fall:

I love all three of these deeply, but my favorite is that gold/brown in the middle.  Adore it.

Also, Target's Sonia Kashuk line has a wonderful fall collection:

Again, I love the gray and brown, but the darker pink is pretty sweet too.  Some might even call it sugar (shout out to JBW).

What are your go-to nail colors for the season?  Do you wear the same year round?  Do you even care about nail polish as much as I do?

Cheers!

attempting to regulate my temperature

It is that strange time of year when the temperature is always wrong. I wake up and go out to the car and it is a lovely 73. By the time I leave school it's in the mid to high 90s. My classroom is in the low 20s (we believe in AC at both the middle school and GCSU). This temperature makes it impossible to dress like a normal person.

Enter, the art of layering. Everyone has rules for layering, and I have a few that I try to subscribe to in my life.

3 - try not to look like an olsen. you can't pull it off, no matter how hard you try.

2 - always have a hot weather layer on the bottom and go over that, whether it is a tank and jeans, a skirt and a short sleeved shirt, whatever. Throw a cardigan, scarf, etc. on top because you can always throw stuff on top to add warmth and style, but you need to feel good when it's a million degrees outside.

1 - always, ALWAYS, add a pop to your layered outfit. Be it a fun moment of color or an interesting twist, give it something fun!

I like to use my leopard flats or a random, bright color.

Cheers to getting to a normal temperature, and for more on layering from people who know a lot more than me, go here: http://ponx.hubpages.com/hub/Layer-Clothes
