‘Tis the season, for fabulous nails! Yes! Loving the nail polish colors designers are giving us this year for the holiday season. It is so refreshing to not be given light pink and cherry red. I love holiday hues which are not traditional, yet still evoke a festive holiday vibe.

This holiday season, designers have been playing with pink, purple, and berry hues. Two of my three favorite nail polish brands are giving us holiday colors which do just that; play with berry, pink, and purple.

If you have something similar in your nail polish wardrobe, you can pull it back out and easily update your manicure with this sparkling top coat. I love how Dior gives us a festive holiday top coat each year. It can be applied to any nail polish hue and instantly turn it into a current season mani. Love!

So, if you are still in love with another color, from another season, or you have a berry, pink, or purple hue you in your nail polish wardrobe you prefer over the new colors, snap up this top coat and update your mani for the season! It is the easiest way to update your nail polish without breaking the bank. Love that!

Which nail polish color is your favorite for the holiday 2024 season?

New York Fashion Week is here, and so are the upcoming trends for the spring/summer 2025 season. Love! This means we have a whole new color palette to fall in love with. Thankfully Pantone has released their seasonal color trend report from the runways of New York Fashion Week. These are the top ten colors designers used from Pantone on their spring/summer 2025 runways, and also the top five neutral hues.

I am loving the shades of blue and green as well as the neutral hues. The overall palette offers soft versions of traditional spring and summer hues, which I love. Even the neutral colors have nods of blue in them, love that!

fall 2024 handbag trends

We are in luck this fall 2024 season! The handbag trends are building on what many of us already have in our closet from recent seasons. So, if you have had your eye on a handbag, you still have time to snap it up and move it from your wish list to your wardrobe. Love that!

Fall 2024 is all about the anonymous handbag. We are looking at a surge in north/south totes and east/west satchels. The color palette is traditional with neutral hues, black, olive, burgundy/maroon, and winter white. Logo’s are still staying stored in the back of our closets, and high quality, simple silhouettes are reigning supreme.

When it comes to handbags, look for a color or colors you feel will blend with the majority of your closet. Investing in a dark red or olive-type green will give you a traditional handbag you will wear every fall season. So, don’t feel guilty getting an autumn hue, it will have longevity!

The handbag trends we are seeing for the fall 2024 are also perfect investment handbags. Since they are not trendy or fleeting colors, they can stay in our wardrobe for years and get continued use. The silhouettes are also timeless and should give us a lot of wear right now and as we move into the new year. None of these styles are hyper-trendy, so we don’t need to worry about spending money on a new bag for fall. Love that!

Speaking of spending money, the hottest brands, designers and styles right now won’t break the bank. You can get an IT style for under $1000. In fact, emerging designers and relatively unknown brands are having a moment. So, investing in a high-quality bag with a simple, chic silhouette is hot right now. Of course, brands such as Coach, Mansur Gavriel, and Songmont are also continuing to be hot right now too. Love!
