NOTD: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel in Hunger Flames
This color is giving me all of the feels, and I am v confident when I say that Katniss would totes approve!
Though Hunger Flames feels summer-y, the red undertones make it fully apropos for transitioning into autumn.
Formula here is flawless. Though slightly thin {unsurprising given the shade and finish}, it's smooth, fluid, and builds beautifully, so you get full coverage in just a couple of coats. Totally recommending this beaut!
What nail color are you rocking for #ManicureMonday?

NOTD: JULEP Nail Color in Marcella
Le sigh. Marcella is the stuff Barbie dreams are made of.
Though described by JULEP as a weathered pink, the subtle lavendar undertones make Marcella the perfect Barbie Girl-inspired orchid pink.
Formula is brilliant on this pretty lady. You can easily achieve full coverage in one coat, but I love a lush look when it comes to my lacquer and opted for two. Highly recommend this beaut!

bohemian summer to fall transitions with Brazilian Bikini Shop!
I wanted something that would capture the essence of that wild and free bohemian spirit while transitioning seamlessly into autumn via rich hues and textures, and I found all of the above in the HiPANEMA x AMENAPIH Cheyenne Crossbody Bucket Bag.
While I loved the Pink and White offerings, I ultimately went with the Yellow given its lush cognac / saddle suede trim, strap, and drawstring closure, and gorgeous tribal embellishment.
Though smaller than what I typically carry, I've been trying to downsize as of late, and find that this bag suits my belongings perfectly - while working with virtually my entire summer and fall wardrobe. It's the ideal size and shape for late-night coffee runs, mid-morning brunch dates, and early afternoon shopping excursions - the 3 things that keep me going.
Literally obsessed with this lovely, and seriously considering picking it up in the other 2 colors!

NOTD: nails inc. Devonshire Row
Based on nails inc.'s description of this shade being a deep rich lilac, and the color in the bottle appearing v. radiant orchid, the last thing I expected was for this shade to be so dark; but on the nail, it definitely is.
Devonshire Row is a red-toned purple that leaves the color looking v grape-y in hue that feels more fall than summer {no big considering it is almost fall}. The formula here is pretty flawless, reaching opacity in almost one coat, and being very fluid during application.
My one qualm: Within a few hours of applying top coat, the shine begins to fade. Deal breaker? No. But it does require a top coat touch-up to keep it looking glossy.

links à la mode: the IFB weekly roundup {september 10, 2015 edition}
This week several IFB bloggers showed how to look chic while not breaking the bank. Between the Racks in particular is described as having a passion and addiction to shopping for designer on a budget, but i’d call it a gift. Others, search out trends like studio 54 glamour from favorite moderate retailers. While another, talks about editing and refining her current wardrobe. The budgeting continued on with beauty posts, and one blogger has a routine post of “Third Thursday Thrifts.”
There were also wonderful pointers on how to dress for one’s size, shape, and age. The latter isn’t exactly what you’d expect.
My favorite quote, “This one is gonna kill the author.” Please everyone, go find it.
