Autumn Aumbré

  The other day as I was admiring my latest nail polish color and ogling over my color collecting addiction, I told my boyfriend I had enough nail polishes to paint my nails a different color every week for an entire year. To which he responded, "You should do that! And make a blog about it!"

WEEK 8: Autumn Aumbré

Now before you get your panties all in a bunch, yes, I did just use that phrase, I am indeed aware how to actually spell the word Ombré, but for the sake of visual alliterations, I made do. And if you don't like it... I really couldn't care less.

In an attempt to feed my addiction while convincing myself I'm actually just cultured, it has become a tradition of mine to buy myself a new nail polish, or two, whenever I go traveling somewhere new and extraordinary. And by tradition I mean I've done it twice now.. But just give me time.

Anyways, while I was in Ireland last month I picked up a lovely copper colored polish at a tiny side shop I came across while roaming the streets of Killarney, and ever since that moment I have been absolutely ecstatic about it! Not only do I love all things shiny and metallic, but it is the perfect shade for all the fall color sets I have been planning to do. I really can't even begin to explain how difficult it was to finally settle on which polishes to pair with it for this weeks set. But after much blood, sweat, and tears...

WEEK 6: Luck of the Irish

Since the dawn of time (or really since about middle school) I have been obsessed with all things  Irish. It began after my young and impressionable adolescent self watched a movie with some charming Irish bloke in it, and while I can't actually recall anything about said movie or character, what I do remember as vividly as if it were yesterday was the feeling of absolute memorization over his captivating accent. Since that day it has been my dream to visit the homeland of such an angelic voice and soak in the beautiful, green, rolling hills of Ireland.

But as dreams normally are, this was a rather distant and unattainable reality... or so I thought... until my parents and I decided to actually embark on such a journey.

Obviously, with an extraordinary adventure like this before me, I needed an extraordinary nail design to accompany me! And what would be more fitting than something green and glittery! The perfect excuse to go and buy myself a new polish!
But let's be honest, do I really need an excuse?
