wearing: blue dangle earrings c/o SugarFix by BaubleBar / Chanel lipstick / blue ruffle sleeve top (last seen here) / vintage Prada belt (also love this one) / boyfriend jeans (sold out, similar pair here) / Chloe bag / JINsoon fall nail polish / silver statement ring / black leather and rose gold watch / velvet booties (so comfy!)

We finally got some fall weather! This means I can wear jeans without melting into the floor! I originally bought this top, and these velvet booties, to wear at fashion week earlier in the month. The top was super comfortable, and turned out to be great for traveling. It does not wrinkle at all! I wore it tucked into my skirt in New York, and it was also packed into my carry-on suitcase. Nothing made it wrinkle. When I pulled it out of my suitcase to unpack once I got home from the Big Apple, it looked like it had just been pressed. Perfection!

This top had turned out to be really comfortable. Since it doesn’t wrinkle, I can tuck in it, then untuck it, and not have to worry about how it will look. The fabric is comfortable, it is machine washable, and looks cute with a skirt or with jeans. Love that! It is definitely my favorite top of the season!

These booties are super comfortable too. I wore them in New York for fashion week and they were really easy to stand and walk in. They are proving to be practical, and easy to wear here at home too. Since they are navy, they give my whole look a tonal blue look. I love shades of blue!

We need to talk about these earrings for just one minute. They are extremely lightweight, and so much fun! BaubleBar has created a special collection, at amazing prices, for Target this season. This collection is SugarFix by BaubleBar. it is filled with so many fun jewelry pieces to spice up any wardrobe. Every time I wear these earrings people compliment them. They are so much fun! If you are looking for some fabulous baubles at fabulous prices, check out SugarFix by BaubleBar! You can find the collection online here.

Which colors are you drawn to this season?

jinsoon fall 2017 nail polish collection review

JINsoon nail polish is one of the popular brands you find backstage at New York Fashion Week runway shows. I have always admired their nail colors, and their nail art, on the runways; so when they offered to send me their fall collection, I was thrilled!

The JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish collection is hot off the runway, and I am so excited to share the colors with you!

I tested out the JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish collection with one base coat, and two coats of colors. I found the nail polish to be extremely chip resistant. I did some household cleaning without gloves in order to test the durability of the polish, and it passed all the tests! JINsoon’s nail polish did not chip, or wear, off while I scrubbed the kitchen, the bathrooms, and the floor while wearing it; without gloves. Love that!

Fall 2017 is all about dark colors, soft fabrics, texture, and a vintage vibe. The JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish collection captures this vibe, and the colors work well with the look of the season.

JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish: JINsoon Abyss

jinsoon Abyss nail polish fall 2017 review

JINsoon Abyss nail polish for fall 2017 is my favorite color from the autumn collection. Abyss is a deep, dark, mysterious blue which has a slight greenish tinge in artificial light. In natural light, it is a beautiful, dark navy hue. I love this color and can’t wait to wear it often this fall season!

JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish: JINsoon Fable

jinsoon fable nail polish fall 2017 review

JINsoon Fable is my second favorite color from the fall collection. This is a fabulous, deep, dark purple hue. Purple is one of my favorite colors, so it makes a great alternative to my go-to blue hues. I plan on weaving this color into my fall nail polish routine often. It is simply stunning.

JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish: JINsoon Idyll

jinsoon idyll nail polish fall 2017 review

JINsoon Idyll nail polish is a classic orange-red. This is a timeless autumn hue which captures the essence of the fall season. My daughter spotted this color on my nails, and her eyes got wide. She snapped up the bottle and has made it her own. She is currently wearing Idyll on her fingers and her toes. She has no plans of returning the bottle to me. It is truly a beautiful fall hue. Love!

JINsoon fall 2017 nail polish: JINsoon Milieu

jinsoon milieu nail polish fall 2017

JINsoon Milieu is the ultimate classic taupe for fall. This is a great neutral color which should be a staple in anyone’s nail polish wardrobe. Milieu is a little bit more then a traditional neutral; it happens to have slight black undertones. These come out as appearing to add texture to the nail. You can really see it on my pinky in the photo above. I love when a neutral is not so neutral. When I don’t want my nails to compete with my outfit, JINsoon Milieu will be my nail color of choice.

This was the first time I tried JINsoon nail polish. I am really impressed! The colors apply smoothly; leaving no streaks. They are long lasting, and extremely chip resistant. In addition, JINsoon nail polish is priced under $20. Love that!

silver and black boots for fall 2017

Fall boots 2017 might be on your mind now that the temperatures are starting to cool off just a bit. There are so many on trend boots styles for the fall 2017 on store shelves right now. While both boots and booties are hot for the autumn season, booties are really in the spotlight for the fall season.

For the fall 2017 season, boots are anything but basic. Gone are the days of the chic black boot. Fall boots for 2017 are metallic, velvet, embellished with brocade or embroidery, furry, and eye catching. My favorite fall 2017 boot styles are metallic, velvet; and I have my eye on this shiny pair.

Which boot and booties styles for fall 2017 are your favorite?
