Matte is Murdered with Sparkle!

Hey Zombies!

The air is officially COLD here in NM. The large oak tree out from has now shed all of it's yellow leaves into my yard and all down the street. LOL Have I mentioned I LOVE this time of year?

I've been digging black (or darker colored) nails with a glitter topcoat lately. When I thought up this combo in my head, I had to implement it right then.


Isn't that freaking RAD? I love how the glitter in "Chunky Holo Purple" changes colors depending on the angle. It's not your traditional "holo" but it's super fun and unique. Also, the contrast between "Baby Got Back" and "Recessionista" is AMAZING!

The Goods:
Mialni base coat
ManGlaze "Matte is Murder" on all but ring finger
Essie "Recessionista" on ring finger
Kleancolor "Chunky Holo Purple" on all fingers but ring as bling
Darling Diva Polish "Baby Got Back" on ring finger as bling
Sech Vite top coat

A few of my favorite things!

Zombies!

The start of a new week! I hope everyone had an amazing and eventful (or relaxing) weekend!

As the air outside gets cooler, my go-to makeup/nail polish colors change too! I want to share with you all a few of my favorite things as of right now, as I'm sure they will all change in another month!

Let's begin, shall we?

RED NAILS!

I've been desiring the perfect candy apple red color for my nails lately. I've had the *perfect* color in my head but didn't have a polish that fit the bill. That is, until I asked my friend Megan! She handed over Zoya's "Isla" and well, I'm hooked! Just LOOK AT IT! I used Manglaze's "Matte is Murder" on my accent nail with Jordana Cosmetics "Sequins" glitter on top. I adore this combo. I'd wear this all Winter if my tastes weren't so fickle and change on a whim. ;)


RED LIPS!

I've worn red lips almost every day this past week. I'm normally terrified of red lipstick because of the size of my lips but have discovered that if I mix the perfect red lipstick with a blue (cool) based pink, it gives me the perfect red without being too crazy! I still need to play around or just GO BOLD! On my eyes I'm wearing L'Oreal's Infallible eyeshadow in "Golden Emerald" and a black matte eyeshadow from Sleek.



OWLS!

We all know I love Zombie related "swag"! But did you know I'm also addicted to owls? My husband gave me 3 adorable owl necklaces for my birthday and I've worn them every day since. He purchased them at Walgreen's for $6.99. (I only know because we looked at them together at one point.)

Isn't he cute?


I'm curious to see what I'll be wearing the shiz out of in the next few months. I wonder if my tastes will change. What are your go-to beauty/clothing related items these days?
