DARK NAILS FOR FALL!!

Last week we saw Michelle Obama looking truly radiant with her hair, makeup and wardrobe done to perfection.  What she also had that was going on was  on her nails.  A very popular color for fall, a blue grey color called "greige."  But not only Michelle has it going on.  Last week the runways were teeming with girls and their trendy nail colors. The thing I love about nail color is that for the most part they're inexpensive so you can get the latest colors and feel hip without breaking the bank.  Essie has some fun colors shown here

And so does Nicole and OPI.  All of these can be found at Target with prices from $7-$8.50.

The key to wearing a dark shade is to keep your nails on the shorter side and shaped nicely.  Try and keep them all the same length as well.  It will add a cleanness thats super chic and cool.

If you're unsure about a color try it on your toes first before you dive into the finger nails.

It's fun to be daring though so don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and go bold. After all, it's only nails!

Are there colors you'd like to try for Fall but are too afraid to try?  I'd love to hear about them in the comment section below!

KIM KARDASHIAN- UM, NOT SO SIMPLE

With Fashion Week kicking off last night in NY we have been inundated with photos of fab people.  These shots of Kim Kardashian looking not so simple struck me.   They were taken as she headed to the "Du Jour" Magazine party and I'm sure heads were turned.  I personally think she looks beautiful.  I always love the color combo of black and white and she's been working it a lot lately.  I love how her body fills this dress and I love the cut-outs creating the "art deco" style.  I like how she did keep her makeup clean and simple and her hair pulled back.  Letting her figure do all the talking.

What do you think about Kim's look? I'd love to know!!
