You Don't Know Jade

It is full blown fall around here and with that comes a new set of nail polish colors. Obviously. We haven't done a nail color inspired post in forever; today we're featuring Essie: Going Incognito. I love it because it's a fabulous creamy jade.

Max and Cleo, April Dress, $98

I'm not usually a huge fan of cutout sleeves, but this is a very ladylike ensemble, I really like the natural waist hem line.

Ann Taylor, Exotic Embossed Skinny Belt, $34

This is almost a neutral for me. You could pair it with denim, black, brown, or yellow.

C Wonder, Blossom Enamel Bangle Set, $38

Scalloped edge bangles. Ah! I love them. These come in eight other colors.

Ann Taylor, Midnight Tweed Pencil Skirt, $98

I don't often post two items from the same store in one post, but how how I say no to this tweed? It's perfect with black tights and booties.

What colors are you loving for fall both in your closet and on your nails?

Seasonal Nail Polish

Hey lovebugs! It's holiday time and that means fun nail polish options are upon us! Glitter, holiday reds, and greens! Here are some of my favorites, including one I"m wearing right now!

OPI, Bring on the Bling, $13

So this may or may not be from the Burlesque series from OPI, but I'm not ashamed. This is my favorite nail polish ever.

Essie, Scarlet O'Hara, $8

This is the perfect deep cranberry color for Christmas.

Mac, Studded (matte), $15

I love the matte effect of this polish! So chic.

OPI, Gone Gonzo! $3

This is fabulous for New Years!

What are you sporting on your nails for the holidays? Anything flashy and fun?

Be fabulous today!

Turquoise and Caicos

We haven't done a nail polish inspiration post in a while, and I'm off to get mine done this evening so I thought, why not?

I'm loving this color right now:

Essie, Turquoise and Caicos, $8

Nordstrom, Ariella Clover Cat Eyes, $78

I love this for a summer version of a cocktail ring.

Loft, Convertible halter knit dress, $50

You can always count on Loft for a fantastic summer throw on and forget about it dress.

Banana Republic, Linen smocked blouse, $60

I really like the sleeve on this blouse and the way it floats away from the body through the torso.

Anthropologie, Dotty short, $88

Ok, they're a splurge on the price but a beautiful pair of silk shorts in this color? Hard to say no to.

What do you think of this color? Kind of a dusty turquoise.  I think it's great for summer evenings and vacation!

Be fabulous today!

Bright and Beautiful

Hey there lovebugs!

Happy Monday to you.  It's my first day back at work after an extended Christmas stay-cation with the BF.  So today has been an extra slow start for me.  Now what's the best remedy for a sleepy Monday?  I can think of a few things:

1. one venti Starbucks skim latte
2. a bright and cheery outfit
3. online shopping at katespade.com

Luckily for my wallet its the first two, but Santa was plenty good to me by bringing me some idiom bracelets from Kate.  Now, onto the bright and cheery.  Sometimes an outfit needs an embellishment, the right piece of jewelry or the perfect shoe, but sometimes it just needs a neon.

Modcloth, Bright Young Things Dress, $62

Hello Saturday night.  This dress has wonderful structural qualities on the top and the skirt has a delicate dot pattern.

Forever 21, Its a beautiful day tank, $10.80

I don't think this needs much.  Perfect weekend wear or pair it with a tuxedo jacket and skinny dark wash jeans.

Nine West, Meredith, $99

So very Mad Men, no?

Endless, Cosmo Skinny Purple with Metallic Yellow Strap Watch, $65

I love this chic little number.  It's versatile and like a mini shot of energy every time you look down.

Apez (etsy), neon yellow bow headband, $8

If all else fails to pick you up on a Monday, go big and go bow.

Not feeling this highlighter explosion for you? Too bright? Try it on your nails first.  I like this one by China Glaze called "Peachy Keen".
