Being that is is the holiday season I wanted to share with you some of my favorite red nail polishes to wear during this time of year. I picked my to 5 that I currently own. I'm excited to wear this especially during Christmas. I promise to do nail of the day posts as soon as I wear all of these colors.

Nail of the Day-Essie Chinchilly

Today's NOTD is Essie Chinchilly. This is an Essie color from a few years ago but I believe it is permanent. This is a great classic Essie color. I know a lot of people have it in their Fall favorites. It's very work appropriate and I think it would look great on most people. The color is what I would call "Greige" or a grey/beige color. I love this color and even painted the walls in my apartment this color but in a much lighter version.

Nail of the Day-Essie Bahama Mama

Today's NOTD is Essie Bahama Mama. I originally heard a YouTuber talking about this polish and new I had to have it. I picked it up the same day from Harmon's and have fallen in love with the color. For someone who has as many polishes as I do it's pretty hard to find a color that is unique to my collection. This color is unique. The color is a dark red/burgundy shade that I think is beautiful for Fall. I have already gotten so many compliments on the color.

Nail of the Day-Essie Lady Like

Today's NOTD is Essie Lady Like. This is a pretty color for Fall. It is nude/mauve color with lavender undertones. It also has kind of a dusty look to the color. It looks almost nude on the nails which I really like. I think its a nice change from darker colors for Fall. I also sometimes see some grey undertones in this color as well. Grey colors are always hugely popular in Fall. This is a pretty color for the early Fall months.

Fall/Winter Nail Polish Collection +Swatches

Since Fall will be here soon I decided to whip out my fall/winter nail polishes. I have a very large collection of nail polish. I think I counted 40 colors that I would wear in the Fall/Winter. That's a lot. I could wear each polish only once if I switched my polish twice a week. So being that's what I counted I'm going to make that my goal. Hopefully you will be seeing NOTD posts at once a week so that I can try and rotate my polishes. I have way more polish during this season as I prefer vampy dark colors. I have a wide variety of polishes from Julep to China Glaze to OPI to Essie to Sinful. So hopefully you can find something that catches your eye in this post. I also tried my best to get you decent photos of the colors. Unfortunately the weather here in NYC has been terrible and I also live in a dark apartment. Plus a lot of the colors are very similar so its hard to tell a difference in some of the darker colors. I hope this gets you all in the mood for Fall.

Most Worn Things Tag-Summer Edition

I decided to do the most worn summer things tag that I've been seeing a lot on YouTube and on some people's blogs. I wasn't tagged by anyone to do this but I'm going to do it anyways. This was kind of hard for me since I don't really switch things up too much for Summer. My most worn things tend to be things I wear a lot year round but I'm looking forward to sharing this with you all so that you can get a better sense of  some of my favorite things and get to know me better. So here are my 11 most worn things:


1. What is your most worn nail polish?
I really like Essies Cute As A Button for Spring/Summer and have worn this a lot. I tend to switch up my nail polishes every couple of days so it was really hard for me to pick a favorite as I love them all. This one just stood out to me though and I feel like I wore it more than some of my others. It's a pretty peach/pink color which I love. I don't like Essie's brushes as much as OPI but I make it work.

Nail of the Day-Essie Lollipop

Today's NOTD is one of my most favorite summer polishes.  This is a classic red with a tinge of orange in it. I love to wear red nail polishes but this one is especially suited for summer and not a color I would wear in the fall and winter. It's really a classic color and a cult favorite by many.
