Fall into Color

Fall is synonymous with jewel tones and this year is no exception.  From burgundy to evergreen these beautiful rich colors can be found in Zoya's NYFW 2012 Designer collection (in Canada avilable here + on sale!).   The collection was inspired by last February's NYFW fall/winter collections and includes some custom colors for designers Peter Som and Bibhu Monhapatra. I love all the colors but my favorite is Toni, the deep burgundy shade.  Here are some of my fall picks inspired by Zoya's Designer collection.

1. ASOS Super Soft Cropped Jacket  2. BaubleBar Ocean Cascade Collar  3. Jeffery Campbell Rumble Boots  4.Top shop rings 5. H&M Cardigan  6. Coach Legacy Duffle (comes in17 colors!)  7.  BB Dakota Swell Traveled Skirt  8. Forever 21 Wool Fedora 9. Old Navy Pop Color Rockstar Cords (only$34!)

Weekend Love List

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, life just got in the way.  Anywho here are some of the things I love from this past weekend. 

Gotta love Canadian winters :)  

Party time

Here's what I would have worn on NYE if I had gone out.  Instead I opted to stay at home and plant myself on the couch.  My sister and I made some yummy appetizers (a few pics here) and we spent the night watching the US/CAN hockey game (CANADA WON btw!) but unfortunately we lost last night's semi final :(

This dress has a nice subtle sheen to it, see photos below.

DIY bracelet and glittery nails.  

I love this bright orchid nail polish, a new purchase with my gift voucher from here.

I love this school boy blazer especially the buttons!

My best find from 2011, read more about it here.

I still have about a week before I go back to work (school's still out), but I'm looking forward to all the new and exciting things that will happen this year!  I also want to thank all of you for your thoughtful comments.  I read every single one and truly appreciate it!  Remember if you love my blog then please follow on Google Connect Friends or Bloglovin :)

Beauty Break: Subtle Glittery Nails

The glittery nail trend has been going on for a while, whether it's glitter on the ring finger, all over, or on the tips.  Right now I'm loving this combo of Rimmel Lasting Finish Pro in Gold Silk and Pa gold glitter nail polish (Random Japanese brand from my sister).  They give my nails a nice subtle sparkle which is perfect for work.

I started by painting on two coats of Gold silk (I like my base to be darker, but you can just paint on one coat for a more sheer look).  It's hard to tell in the photo but the color is actually more of a rose gold <3

Then once completely dry, paint on one coat of gold glitter nail polish (sheer).  Let dry and finish with top coat (I use OPI).  I also like to use drying drops to speed up the drying time, drip dry by OPI.  That's it! I love how the look changes in different lighting.

I'm thinking of mixing up the shades of metal and glitter, and trying some of the other trends too.  What's your favorite nail trend right now?
