My #4 Fall Favorite Polish for 2015...

Essie Vested Interest!

My most favorite out of all my fall picks. I always love a good green polish though. Ha! This polish is from the Essie 2013 Fall Collection. It is a very greyed out green with a little splash of blue. The creamy formula is very easy to work with and it has the perfect thickness. LOVE!

This swatch is two thick coats. So beautiful and perfect for fall, ya'll!

As you can see in this photo, it does really have a bit of blue in it, especially compared to Sew Psyched, which is more of an army green. And, it is much darker than Maximillian Strasse-her. (Just so you know I could have put all these greens in my favorites :), but I had to limit myself to one green.)

If you picked up Essie Fall In Line from Essie's 2014 Fall Collection, then you definitely don't need Essie VI because they are pretty much dupes. I don't own that polish-for obvious reasons so I couldn't picture it here. VI is such a unique color, in my researching I found only one easy to find polish that comes pretty close to VI, and that is China Glaze Take a Hike from their 2015 Fall Collection.

I decided to go with a Fall Flower nail design with negative space. I love the way it turned out!

My #3 Favorite Fall Polish for 2015...

Bobbi Brown Nectar!

I know, I know! This was a limited edition polish from Bobbi Brown last summer, and it's really hard to find, but I had to include it because, well... I love it! And, I know it was released as a summer polish, but I prefer it as a Fall polish, cause I am crazy like that! It is definitely a unique orange. Sometimes it looks pink and sometimes it looks red. It keeps me guessing and that makes me happy. (I am so easy to please:)). The formula is thick, creamy and perfect. It is opaque in two thin coats or one generous coat.

And that swatch! Wowza! That just shows how amazing it looks. So since it is almost impossible to find, I definitely had to find some dupes for you. That way you could enjoy a color like this too because, well...that's what makes you happy. Right?! I didn't find an exact dupe, but I came really close. Here are my comparisons...

So, Essie Chubby Cheeks (which I have seen at my local Ulta) is a little darker and slightly more red. On the nail (or in this case the nail wheel), this was the closest dupe in my opinion. Sally Hansen Poof! Be-gonia looked like an exact dupe in the bottle, but when swatched it was a little more brown. Both are pretty darn close if you're not as picky as I me ;). I put Essie Peach side Babe in there to show you how much lighter it is than Nectar, and Essie Cute As A Button to show you that Nectar really is more of an orange than a coral. All of these polishes have a great formula.

I decided to do an Ikat manicure for this favorite color of mine. I LOVE the way it turned out! Have you tried your hand at this before?

Here is a tutorial if you want to try it...

#2 Favorite Fall Polish for 2015...

OPI Do You Have This Color In Stockholm?

 DYHTCIS-came out in the Fall 2014 Nordic Collection. It is a vibrant slightly blue toned purple. It has a crelly (cream/jelly) formula. Only two coats for full opacity. I love wearing white, gray or black  with this polish on my nails because it is a stand out! Gorgeous!

Comparisons from my collection. Compared to ORLY Saturated, you can tell Do You Have This Color in Stockholm has that slight blue tone. OPI Lost My Bikini in Molokini is more gray toned. Essie Suite Retreat is more blue and gray. OPI My Car Has Navy-gation is just as bright as DYHTCIS but is definitely Navy. No dupes in my collection. :)

Nail design using Do You Have This Color in Stockholm?- Fishtail design. Pretty simple, just takes some patience waiting for layers to dry. (Check out my Instagram for more nail designs-@gopolished) Have you ever tried doing a fishtail design?

#1 Favorite Fall Polish for 2015...

China Glaze For Audrey

My most favorite China Glaze polish-Hand down! The most beautiful Tiffany blue polish-named after the elegant Audrey Hepburn. There is a reason this polish has been around since 2007! The flattering color and perfect formula make it hard to resist. It's opaque in two smooth creamy coats. Everyone should have this in their collection (in my opinion)!

I have four polishes in my collection to compare. Left to Right- China Glaze For Audrey, Essie Turquoise and Caicos, OPI My Dogsled is a Hybrid, and China Glaze Too Yacht To Handle. As you can see For Audrey is a turquoise which leans more blue (which is one reason I love it so much). It also has a subtle brightness/glow. Actually, I can't get enough of these turquoise shades. I like them all for different reasons (haha), but For Audrey is a stand out!

-Nail design for For Audrey- Polka Dots :). Simple. Love. Today was the first day it really felt like fall- perfect day to start showing off my fall favorites :).
