@hm is my go-to when it comes to Holiday sparkle ✨ ((and holiday sweatpants)) and this year is no different. PLUS this dress has elastic waist and is pretty much the most comfortable (and most 🎄 festive) thing I currently own, so while I may be rocking it with sky high stilettos in this photo there’s a good chance I’ll be wearing it with slippers this weekend while I sit on my couch and binge Holiday movies!

I don’t know about you, but putting on a sparkly outfit makes me smile & I plan on doing it as often as possible this month! Who’s with me??

Prepare to “Fall” in Love with this Fall Foliage Manicure

Prepare to "Fall" in Love with this Fall Foliage Manicure

I know everyone is obsessed with capturing the perfect Fall foliage photo, so I figured why not create my own Fall foliage! The leaves took FOREVER to turn in lower New York and I was beginning to think that we wouldn’t see any thanks to the unseasonable warm weather we’ve been having. But alas, in the first week of November, we finally got a pretty awesome burst of it! I’ve been toying with the idea of doing a Fall foliage manicure for a couple years, but I never got around to it, and after seeing a few awesome ones on Pinterest this year I figured I would go for it.

I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out! The leaves were definitely a little challenging to paint over this chunky gold glitter polish, but overall it’s pretty awesome and SO seasonally appropriate!

Last month I did my very first step-by-step nail tutorial and since everyone seemed to love it I figured I would make it a regular thing. I totally understand the appeal and I’m glad that I finally found a lighting set up that works so that I can take clear and well light step-by-step photos of each step I took to create this fall foliage manicure! So scroll down and let me know what you think! I made the photo tutorial one large graphic so you can pin it for later!
