Nails So Fancy

With Autumn slowly but surely approaching, I do find myself getting quite happy about that because as much as I like Summer I have to say I love Autumn/Winter. I love the colder weather, I love wearing layers, I love the rich jewel tones associated with the A/W months; I just prefer that time of year for many reasons! So around this time of year, shops are filling up with autumnal collections and my mind starts to get into that mode, stocking up on a few new pieces for the season ahead, and it's not just clothes & accessories- I love to start stocking up on a few nice new colour nail varnishes. Which brings me to this post, I have taken some of the nail trends for A/W'14 and then picked my favourite colours, which includes neutrals, reds, greys and metallic. So here's the best nail polish colours out there for A/W'14.

Neutral Nails

Choosing a colour for your nails can become quite a difficult decision seeing as these days there are so many colours, brands and techniques to choose from and not to mention trends. Last year for me it was all about the bright colours, all Summer long I favoured the brights and pastels then during the colder months of Autumn/Winter I loved the deeper jewel tones. This year though its all about the neutrals- greys, beige's and even the palest of pastels and I've put together my pick of the best neutral nail polish colours out there. So let's start...
