Fall Nail Polish Trends 2013!

Every year, I get so excited to see brands come out with their fall nail polish collection! I love browsing through the shelves of nail polish in stores and salons looking at all the fall nail polish colors, from cranberries to neutrals. During the fall, I tend to go towards more creamy colors rather than shimmery colors and also more darker colors. Read on to see some of my favorite fall nail polish trends this year!

My absolute favorite color this fall is cranberry! I love cranberry and maroon for the fall and I think that a creamy cranberry color is a staple for the fall! It looks super chic and is a trendy and pretty twist to the typical red color! The ones shown above are Essie's "Bahama Mama" and Zoya's "Toni".

Every year, I seem to see some sort of gray as a trend for the fall. It's definitely a staple for the fall! It's a very subtle that won't draw to much attention to your nails, while still making your nails look on trend and polished! The ones shown above are Sephora Collections Nail Polish in "Berlin Underground" and  Essie's "Chinchilly". 

You can never go wrong with a neutral! It's a must have color that looks good year round. It's a color that you can wear and not worry about it clashing with your outfit! Neutrals are also a perfect way to have polished nails without making a huge statement. The ones shown above are Julep's in "Florence" and Marc Jacobs Nail Lacquer in "Funny Girl".

Navy blue has always been one of my favorite fall colors! It's the perfect alternative to a black and is such a pretty color whether it's a cream nail polish or shimmery color. It's also the perfect color to transition into winter. The ones shown above are Essie's "After School Boy Blazer" and Opi's "Road House Blues".

I došlo je zimsko vreme koje mi nikako ne ide u prilog :) Žao mi je što su slike noćne,ali to je jedini period koji sam slobodna s obzirom da je mrak već u 17h. No, nadam se da ću uhvatiti i Sunca ovih dana :)

Veliki pozdrav za sve koji prate blog i one koji ne prate,samo su tu u prolazu ;)

Sweater Weather Tag!

I love tags and I love fall, so when I saw this tag going around YouTube, I had to do it! I love the questions in this tag, because it's different than the typical "what's your favorite fall product" kind of tag and also has some fun non-beauty related questions. I also love the name of this tag! Who else started playing the song "Sweater Weather" by The Neighbourhood in their head when reading the name? Love that song! Read on to see my answers to the questions!

1. Favorite candle scent? I know that everyone says this, but probably "Leaves" by Bath and Body Works. I may also be bias, because that's the only fall candle I've ever bought and I haven't stopped by anywhere to smell candles. "Leaves" though is such a perfect and unique scent though and I would definitely recommend checking it out!

2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate? Tea! In the fall, I love the Chai Lattes from Starbucks! I also love hot chocolate, but I tend to drink it more in the winter! I know, however, that Starbucks recently came out with a chocolate chai, which I really want to try!

3. What's the best fall memory you have? Hmmm, well I don't think that I have any favorite fall memory in particular. One of my earliest memories of fall though is making a huge leaf pile in my friend's backyard and jumping in it (the typical fall memory).

4. Which makeup trend do you prefer: dark lips or winged eyeliner? Winged liner! I think winged liner is a easy and simple way to make your eyes pop! Dark lips, however, are a little more one trend for the fall, but I can't pull it off.

5. What do you want to be for Halloween? I don't know yet, but I have Minnie Mouse ears, so I may be Minnie Mouse for Halloween, even though it's a pretty common costume.

6. Favorite Thanksgiving food? Stuffing! I absolutely love stuffing and for me, it beats turkey! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it..

7. Hats or Scarves? Scarves! I'm not much of a hat person, but I love scarves, infinity scarves in particular. I think that scarves are the perfect way to make an outfit look put together without trying that hard. Plus, they're perfect for the colder months!

8. Most worn sweater? My most worn sweater is my simple navy blue sweater with brown elbow pads. I love navy blue in the fall and I think that it's a very versatile color that can be worn with anything. The fact that it's super cozy is also a plus for the fall!

9. Favorite fall nail polish? Essie's "Bahama Mama" is a maroon, wine color that's perfect for the fall! I don't actually own this nail polish, but I'm thinking about picking it out because I eye it every time in the store. I love maroon colors and the fact that this one is creamy rather than shimmery is a plus for me, since I do generally like creamier nail polishes better. It's also a color that won't clash with any of your outfits!

10. Football games or jumping in leaf piles? This is a hard one because I liked going to football games, but I also love jumping in leaf piles and crunching on the leaves (even though I haven't done so since I was little). For me right now, even though I'm in college, I would have to say jumping in leaf piles, mainly because my university doesn't have a football team.

11. Skinny jeans or leggings? I'm not much of a leggings person and I didn't actually start wearing them until this year, so I will have to go with skinny jeans (even though leggings are growing on me).

12. Combat boots or Uggs? Combat boots! I think that combat boots are a fall essential and they go with anything! Uggs may be comfy, but I personally think that combat boots are more fashionable of the two.

13. What's your #1 favorite thing about fall? I absolutely love everything about fall, from the food to the fashion, but honestly, as cheesy as this is, my favorite thing about fall is the changing colors of the trees! Definitely the prettiest part!

I hope you enjoyed this post!

It's story of my life.
On he first place, everything seems too complicated and it's like "too much of everything", but if you have a lots of patience and you take a closer look you will see that nothing's impossible and it actually goes pretty well together... you just have to have those eyes that are looking a bit deeper!

Get the Look: Cher Lloyd - I Wish - Makeup Look!

Of all the Cher Lloyd songs, "I Wish" is probably my favorite, mainly because it kind of describes my life. In the video, Cher Lloyd was rocking a basic smokey eye and deep red lipstick. This look would be the perfect look for a night out or can even be a dramatic look for homecoming or prom. Read on to see my take on her makeup!

Face:

Start off the makeup by applying your foundation to cover any discoloration. Cher Lloyd had defined cheekbones and was wearing bronzer, so apply a bronzer in the hollows of your cheeks, temples, and jawline. Lightly apply a peachy-pink blush to the apples of your cheeks, because Cher had a little flush of color. Finish off the face makeup by applying a highlighter to the tops of your cheekbones and down the bridge of your nose.

Eyes:

To start off this smokey eye look, apply a shimmery nude eyeshadow all over the lid. Next, apply a true dark brown eyeshadow in the shade of a sideways "v" shade in the crease and outer corner and then blend well. Use a soft brown eyeshadow to blend the edges for a softer and more natural look.

For Cher Lloyd's defined brows, use a brow powder to fill in your brows. Next, using an angled brush, apply the dark brown eyeshadow using an angled brush to line the outer third of the bottom lash line. For the upper lash line, apply medium thick line of black gel eyeliner across the whole lash line. For Cher Lloyd's bold eyelashes, apply a volumizing black mascara.

Lips:

Finish the look off by applying a true red lipstick, such as Covergirl's "Hot" lipstick.
