Autumn

Well, I think it's certainly safe to say I've failed at blogging. But hey, I tried...and everyone loves a trier.. right? right?! On the plus side, I've received a promotion at work and I'm working a lot longer hours and I just can't find enough time in the day to fit it all in!! 
Autumn, however, has well and truly arrived in England. The mornings are slowly getting darker and the nights are beginning much earlier. I'm unsure how I feel about Autumn. Much like the weather, my feelings towards the crisper season are ever changing. In a bid to make myself feel more positive I'm going to do my Top 3 things I love about Autumn!

1. Firstly, I much prefer darker toned nail polishes. Not necessarily dark, but darker. My favourite Autumn shades are Essie - Bahama Mama, OPI - 4 in the morning and OPI - Love. Angel. Music. Baby. I think a darker red is a colour that works on pretty much everybody.

2. All the crispy leaves on the ground make such a satisfying noise when you walk through them.. okay so maybe I'm 5 but leaves are fun!

3. Wrapping up warm! I think we are now past the stage of waking up and it's freezing cold and layering up, to then get to work and its 22 degrees! I now feel like I can safely go and purchase some gloves or some autumn clothing and it wont be sat in my wardrobe for another 2 months. I like knowing where I stand with weather, at the start of Autumn you're never really sure, but the deeper in you get, the more convincing it its that it's going to be cold!  

What do you love most about Autumn? Leave a comment below and try and make me feel more positive about this season!

Autumn's here!

So guys, it's officially that time of year again. I love Autumn, its my favourite season. And a new season means its a great excuse to go back to the old favourite colours from last year! My favourite Autumn shade is Bahama Mama by Essie.


Essie describes the colour as a "warm, rich, creamy deep plum". Plum, in my mind, is far more purple than this polish, however. I think it's definitely more of a red than purple.


I obviously couldn't leave this plain, so I added Models Own - Juicy Jules to the tips of two fingers and used my Revlon - Top Coat (more about that soon!).

I love this so much and I seriously can't wait to get my hands on the Fall collection from Essie (no where near me seems to be stocking it?!)

Do you have a go-to polish for Autumn? I'd love to try out some new colours and brands if anyone has any recommendations!
