Mocha Mousse inspired nail polish color from top: Hermes nail polish / Chanel brown nail polish / Chanel medium brown nail polish /

Now that Mocha Mousse has been announced as the color of the year by Pantone, let’s look in our nail polish collections and see what we can find in the ballpark!

We have three nail polish colors from 2024 which are in the brown family and are still in stock in stores; just in case you didn’t already indulge. The nail polish color featured above are Hermes Vert Bronze, Chanel Faun, and Chanel Spirituelle. Since we don’t have to have to the exact Mocha Mousse shade this upcoming 2025 year, any hue in the brown family will do. Love that!

If you already have a favorite shade of brown, you’re good to go for the new year! If not, I recommend one of these three colors. They are neutral, play well with any outfit you put together, and will carry you through the new year. I will definitely be rotating through these three hues! I am currently rocking the Hermes color. Love it!

So, without further ado, here are a few brown shades of nail polish from around the web you will love for 2025.

Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for more winter coverage and new year’s news!

What’s in my travel beauty bag winter 2025

Inside my travel beauty bag winter 2025: (shown) beauty bag / travel size body cream / shampoo and conditioner, travel size / powder /

‘Tis the season of travel! As you know, I prefer to carry-on my luggage when I travel; if possible. This means I always ensure my beauty products are TSA compliant. Beauty products for carry-on luggage need to be 3.4oz or less and fit into a one-quart bag. I’m not sure if my beauty bag is exactly one quart, but TSA seems fine with it, so I’m good!

Since it is difficult to travel with perfume, I prefer a scented body cream which is easy to travel with and provides a nice fragrance. This scented body cream is perfect for travel and offers a powdery gourmand scent which I love wearing. I have to credit my daughter for showing me this body cream! It’s fabulous!

I also travel with minimal makeup and prefer powder foundation over liquid while I am on vacation. It’s one less liquid to deal with!

So, without further ado, here is what’ inside my travel beauty bag for winter 2025 and the holiday 2024 season:

Thanks for stopping by, and safe travels!

Holiday manicure ideas: Dior holiday top coat / Chanel holiday nail polish / pictured below: Dior holiday nail polish / Chanel iridescent nail polish /

This holiday season Dior has made it so easy to create multiple, festive holiday manicures for the entire season. Thier sparkling gold top coat easily works with any nail polish color. My favorite so far is how it pairs with Chanel’s dark holiday nail polish. It’s perfect for parties throughout the holiday season and New Years. Love!

If you already have nail polish colors at home you want to wear during the holiday, the easiest way to update your manicure is by adding this top coat. You can enjoy your favorite color and turn it into a festive holiday look by simply adding this Dior top coat. Love that!

So, I don’t think I need to keep typing about how amazing this top coat is and how it can turn any nail polish into a holiday look. You can see for yourself! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
