Solid Monday/Fall Surprises

Kleancolor "Jazz Olive" (#118)

Hello everyone! For this week's solid Monday post I chose a metallic green by Kleancolor. I know I need to switch up brands because I always use Kleancolor but I cannot stress enough how amazing this brand is and how cheap it is. For today's post I chose "Jazz Olive" (#118). This color encompasses the Fall season to me. Metallics are in right now especially in the Fall color palette. It's a little harder to match your outfits to green but you could use any metallic color to really pull the Fall look off. If you put a layer of Sally Hansen's Double Duty Top & Base coat, it adds even more shine to your nails to make them even more noticeable. I am also featuring something very special this week! I just found a new nail design trick that I cannot wait to share with all of you! So make sure you come back and see what that's all about!


Fall Season Goodies!

Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I love the pumpkins, Halloween, sweaters, hot cocoa, bonfires, and Thanksgiving. So I decided that today I was going to feature some of my favorite Fall things. (Sorry they don't really have to do with nails at all).

First I would like to start off with 3 of my favorite fall foods. Caramel apples are my all time favorite. When this season rolls around, those are the first things that I pick up from the apple orchard. If you live around the Dekalb, Illinois area there is a great apple orchard to buy these from. It's called Edward's Orchard. Not only do they have great apples but they also have the best apple cider and apple cider donuts. They also include a petting zoo, buffet, live band, and a fun maze for kids to run through. It's an overall great place for families to go. If you have never been there, check it out. The next food item on my list is apple pie bites. They are so cute! You slice up an apple and roll each apple slice into a crescent roll and coat it with cinnamon and sugar. They are to die for and they are so easy! The next food is little pumpkin cheesecakes! They don't even need to bake. These are so incredibly good and very easy to make also. You can even buy some cinnamon sticks for a cute addition! If you love pumpkin, this a must try recipe! I have to links for both recipes below if you'd like to give either a try!

I have one more fall related feature to talk about and ladies that is fall clothing! Sweaters, jeans, leggings, boots, scarves, hats, and mittens! Everything about fall clothes makes me happy. I love wearing big, over-sized sweaters with leggings and a pair of Uggs. Then you come home after school or work and curl up under a blanket and watch crappy movies and sip on hot cocoa. It's my favorite time of the year especially if you have a boy to cuddle up with. This leads to another reason why I love this season so much. Scary movies! I live to find a movie that scares the crap out of me. The one movie that still scares me every time I watch it is Insidious. I also recently saw The Conjuring which gave me the chills. It was super creepy and made me jump multiple times. I also admit that I may have screamed out lot a couple of times in the theater. There are thousands of reasons why I love fall so much but if I listed them all, you would all probably get very bored. 

Make sure you keep checking my blog all week because I will be starting to feature Halloween designs! Once again if there is a design that you wanna see done whether it was from my blog or somewhere else, please email me. I would more than willing to figure it out and post a tutorial! Happy fall everyone!
