Fall's Hottest Nail Colors

let us a take moment of silence to appreciate the lengths nails polish has come in the last two years.

*****

seriously though, polish collections usually contained the occasional glitter or metallic finish. currently we are enjoying textures, holographic colors, mixed glitters, varying finishes and a wide array of nail art. let the heavens open and clouds part while we hear the angels singing 'hallelujah'. expressing your personal style has never been easier (or this inexpensive!) and nails make the perfect canvas for that.

here are some of the colors you will be seeing on nails everywhere:

1. butter LONDON, Inky Six: a mixed metallic glitter sure to be seen on the hands of rockstars everywhere.
2. China Glaze, Goldie But Goodie: gold is the season's hottest accent and what better to accent than your nails? all the more better for fashioning, my dear.
3. essie, For The Twill Of It: this holographic polish by essie will quickly be selling out in stores everywhere. a must-have for the season and the perfect accompaniment to every outfit.
4. Sally Hansen, Fuzzy Coat: the latest craze in polish textures are the fuzzy coats. pick 'em up in varying shades to layer over your latest mani for the coolest texture effect in town.
5. Chanel, Alchimie: one of the best nail polishes, but also the most expensive, Chanel gets it right erry time. army green, anyone?

Nail Polish Love Notes

i love makeup and it was only a matter of time before nail polish joined in on the love notes. this is a way for me to share with you some of my favorite and not-so-favorite love affairs with makeup.

• China Glaze - my love for you will never die. each new collection includes a seasonal have, my mani's are dry in minutes and last for days. i love you.
• Sinful Colors - you are the perfect solution to a polish fling. if i'm in the mood for a color but don't want to commit, $2 is worth the quick fix. no walk of shame necessary.
• Chanel - your colors last and they are some of the most popular. like the BMOC (or in this case Big Polish On Campus) you set the trend for what's cool. your price tag is steeeep but usually worth it.
• Lynderella - the indie polish that everyone is vying to get their hands on. you've kept your edge and make the best and most coveted glitters in the business. is this burning, an eternal flame?
• Illamasqua - love your makeup but your 'rubber' effect polish was a total fail. it is like getting super excited for the big date only to go to Burger King. next time, let's do lunch.
