Feelin' Peachy

Hi loves!

With fall upon us, I have been loving the darker shades on my nails.  But truth be told, I'm SO not a dark colour kind of gal.  I love colour, I wear bright coloured shirts & have purple chunks in my hair - bright colours just make me happy.  So needing a little change from the darker shades I decided to go with an 'off season' polish for this mani.


For this look I used Gosh - Peachy which is much lighter and peachier in real life.  It's a really beautiful & flattering shade on my skin tone.  On my accent nail I wore Essie Case Study and layered Orly Too Fab and Watch It Glitter on top - I felt like this made it look a little more Fall appropriate.


I added loose gold hex glitter to each nail and finished it off with top coat.  

What do you think of out of season nail colour?  I quite liked wearing this mani - change is good :)

  2. I love this mani! I think it's actually very fall-y! The colours remind me of crackling leaves and the glitter LOOKS like crispy leaves! Great mani :)

  3. Oh, I think any colour nail polish is ok at ANY time! I'd totally wear neons now if my mood called for it. Bright colours all the way!

    1. Bright colours are just so happy! We need happy nails with winter (ie. cold rain) upon us :)

  4. I totally agree with you! Why do we limit ourselves to wear certain colors only on certain seasons? I wore a few darker vampy shades at the beginning of winter, but I'm back to brights now. They can totally change your mood!

    That color looks nice in your pictures, so sad your camera played with it! Overall it's rather fall-y anyways ^^ Looks super nice!

    And oh! Purple hair? NICE! That must be hard to entertain...

    1. Yes! I'm so glad you agree, bright nails definitely have the ability to change your mood completely!

      My camera has a hard time with orange shades, and I'm not camera savy enough to play with the settings ;)

      The purple fades fast, but I have my own hair dye so I just touch it up every 3-4 weeks or so. It's the bleaching that I hate doing!
