sidda wears polish: "Cocktail Dress," by Ciate Paint Pots.

I wore this very polish on the day that Justin & I got engaged. For that reason, I felt it was fitting to pull it back out & paint it on for our one-year anniversary trip to Charleston. 

What I learned this time around: I'm painting my coats way too gloppy & thick, which makes them bubble up & look horrible. Will be working on thinner, cleaner coats next time around. I also need to invest in a topcoat. I do love this color though, especially for Fall.

sidda wears polish: Fall 2013 Nail Polish Picks.

Fall is one of my favorite seasons. The chill in the air, the pumpkins popping up on doorsteps, the creepiness of Halloween... I could go on & on about why I love this season. But, shifting into beauty gear, one of the top reasons I love Fall is the influx of what I consider some of the prettiest nail polishes. I love deep nail colors, & all Spring & Summer I find myself holding back from wearing dark, sparkly hues. When the Fall Equinox finally rolls around, I always comb through my nail polish collection & pull out the polishes I've been pining for. I've listed out my Fall selections for you today, as well as including the video I recently uploaded to YouTube, which explains them in a bit more detail.
