Essie is so good at creating moods with colour – you can be pretty sure whatever colours you’re feeling for when the weather changes, Essie will have anticipated that thought. I love down-shades for nails in autumn – the same colours I want to wrap myself in when it comes to sweaters and scarves. Ive picked out my favourites from Essie Fall 2014- the wear-anywhere colours that compliment everything from jeans and knits to workwear.
As you can see, Style Cartel is a kind of military blue – it’s not so inky that you look like you’ve biro’d your nails, but bridges the blue-black gap with undertones of grey. Fall In Line is a soft, greyish green – down-washed jade, if you like. I just think they’re all kinds of stylish.
Right now though, I’m wearing Essie Toggle To The Top from last year’s winter collection – this is a vampy, shimmer shot red with undertones of black that covers off diva glam like no other. It’s Wicked Witch meets Party Girl meets Hollywood. Why am I wearing it? It’s a massive, massive clue to my next BBB/LIB beauty box!

I love that grey green shade. I definitely need to check these out next time I am near an Essie stand.

Loving the green shade – I like Essie polishes, but..( do all my comments contain a but…?!) – I find the lighting on their display stands just awfull – far to bright and glaring – I have to walk 10 feet away with the polish to be able to see the colour properly!? Is that just me… there are other brands equally guilty. BBB beauty box – oh happy early Christmas to ME!
I love Style Cartel! A dark shade like that is one of my favorites to wear!
Oooo now that little comment at the end excites me -as does the red polish. I missed out on the last box as it sold out so quickly. Can you tell us roughly when the next one will be?????
