Nails: Autumnal Hues


 I've been itchin' to get back into my darker, more wintry nail polish shades for aaaages. I'm still the biggest fan of white, off white, pinky white nails and wear them all year round but there's just something about darker talons that make you look more polished as if you've had your mani done by a pro. Here's a few of my favourite nail polish shades for Autumn.

O.P.I - My Private Jet, Leighton Denny - Forbidden Territory, Leighton Denny - Steel Appeal, MAC - Anti-Fashion

Leighton Denny - Passion (much deeper in real life), Essence - Irreplaceable, Leighton Denny - Feel The Burn

Nails Inc - Porchester Square, L'Oreal - Mysteriousicon, Chanel - Vertigo

All swatches are 2 coats with no base or top coat.

Leighton Denny - Passion is gorgeous in person. It's what I would describe as a true blood red and as you can probably tell from the photos, I'm almost at the end of the bottle. 'Feel The Burn' and 'Forbidden Territory' have been in my collection for at least 2 years but I don't think I've ever worn them. Not sure why as they're really Autumn appropriate, they remind me of leaves.

Do you own any of these polishes?

    1. The only thing I don't like about darker shades is how obvious one tiny chip looks. lol
