Autumn Nails

All summer long I have been wearing bright colors on my nails but I have slowly started to move away from all the pretty pastel shades and opt for some more fall appropriate colors...

Chanel Graphite - A shimmery steel grey with silver glitter

Essie Chinchilly -  A muted grey/brown shade 

Deborah Lippmann Naked - The perfect nude 

Chanel Peridot - A metallic green/gold color that looks different in every light

Essie Aruba Blue - A metallic sapphire blue
What are you wearing on your nails this fall?

Blushing

As the weather is getting cooler my beauty routine has been changing along with the seasons. As my skin is losing its summer tan I have replaced my favorite bronzers with a bright pink cheek that gives a touch of warmth to my face while staying on trend for the fall season.

Applied to the apples of your cheeks, a bright pink blush gives a pretty glow and really brightens up your face, especially on cold days when you never want to get out of bed. To make your skin look extra dewy and glowing, apply a highlighter to the top of your cheekbones and dust it up to your temples. 

Some of my favorite pink blushes include...

MAC Pink Swoon 
MAC Well Dressed 
NARS Desire 

Dior Amber Rose - a shimmery pink hued highlighter
