Try Out Ombre Nails

You've seen the ombre look everywhere I'm sure. I'm seeing it everywhere and I love it! "Ombre" is a fun trend that started in France and is making its way everywhere. I've been seeing so many people with ombre hair, either fading from dark to lighter, or light to darker. I've seen a variety of people rock some amazing colors--it's fun to really see how creative people can get with the color combinations. For more about ombre hair, see my previous post!
If you are wanting to try out the ombre look, but not ready to take the plunge by coloring your hair, try it out on your nails. It's super fun, and you can choose to go lighter to darker or darker to lighter. You can try this out with so many different color combinations. For Halloween, you could do an orange shade fading into black, or you could try a hot color this fall and use shades of purple and plum. Have fun with this and get creative! If you don't like it, you can always use a good nail polish remover to take it off and start fresh.

Ombre Hair is IN



I'm all about Fall fashion. It is my favorite time of the year and there is nothing about Fall that I don't like. There are so many great things about it that I really just can't get enough: the apple cider, football games, new fashion trends, Halloween, cool weather, and of course the copious amount of meals I make in the crock pot.

Anyway, I've been seeing this "ombre" look everywhere and I absolutely fell in love with it! This is a French trend (go figure, everything awesome starts there, they are the fashion capital of the world...) So many celebs are trying this out (think Khloe Kardashian). You can make this work whether you want to go bold or try something a little more nonchalant. Think of your job, too, before you go too bold! During the warmer months, go for lighter and brighter shades and in the colder months of winter, try out ash tones. Have fun with this and post some pics if you get this done--I'd love to see!
