Hello there, friends, just kicking off the work week with a handful of autumn-appropriate polishes, holos tout and perfect for all of your Fall manicure needs. Let’s take a closer peek at these leafy-looking lovelies, shall we?
It’s the incredibly rare tree whose leaves turn this devastatingly sexy shade of candy apple red – possibly a sumac, they’re utterly gorgeous at this time of year. This is Different Dimension‘s Naughty, a beautiful Christmas polish that I think does double duty as a classic Fall hue (possibly even triple duty if you factor in Valentine’s Day!)
Next up, we have one of my favourite polishes, period, no matter the time of year, KB Shimmer‘s perfectly pumpkiny Rust No One. The holo effect with this one is quite pronounced, and I love that bright purple flash running up the center of the bottle – it makes Rust No One look like about three differently hued polishes all at once.
In third place, we have the only yellow holo I own, which of course means it always shows up in round-up posts, even though I’m really not that fond of it because while it’s quite beautiful in the sun, it looks like metallic urine in lower lighting conditions, which is rather unfortunate, and wow, that was one heck of a run-on sentence. Oh, sorry, this is Enchanted Polish‘s House of the Rising Sun. 😉
Next up we have another one of my favourite polishes, Enchanted Polish’s Lost Boy. This megawatt super stainer (for all that’s good and not dyed lurid, neon yellow, use this polish with two, even three layers of base coat) doesn’t look like very many leaves at this time of year (they’ve really lost this kind of vivid, fresh green) but there’s still a few clinging to their hues of brighter, sunnier days.
Second from last we have KB Shimmer’s Men Are From Mars-ala, a rich, reddish brown holo that looks like so many wonderful things in the Fall – crunchy leaves, scrumptious baked goods, the final inch of a delicious pumpkin spice latte. It also looks like the entirety of 1990s beauty in a bottle (brown, kids, there was SO. MUCH. BROWN.)
Finally, we have yet another KB Shimmer polish, brownie-hued Oh My Ganache! Mmm, brownies…also the raggedy edges of crispy, crunchy leaves.

Metallic urine!!! Never had I ever thought I would read those words together!
You know the movie Vacation? That horrible green station wagon they get (the Wagon Queen Family Truckster is its model name) is in a colour that’s either called Metallic Pea or Metallic Pee, I’m never quite sure which one! It does have a bit of a greenish-gold tinge to it, so I’m apt to go with Pee. 🙂

I am digging the last one, the KB sparkly brownie. I have a brown KB of a similar hue but with various shaped holo glitter. I love it. I think I need to put it on now.
Do it, do it, do it…!
