Fall In Florida

Fall is kind of a strange season in Florida.  It really doesn't cool down much - our humidity just gets WAY better and there is typically a nice breeze around, but that's it.  It is still pretty warm out and air conditioner is still needed.

Seeing as the weather doesn't change drastically, our clothing doesn't either - which kind of sucks in my opinion, because I LOVE Fall and so want to wear all of the fuzzy sweaters, scarves and boots!  I make small changes in my appearance in the Fall.  In the past, if I had lighter hair or highlights - I always went to my natural dark brown color - which lately I've stuck to (I hate being a slave to the hairdresser).  I also change up my makeup and polishes.

For makeup, I tone down the dewy makeup that I usually do and try to use more matte colors and a lot of browns and neutrals.... hello Naked Palettes!  Another great palette would be the Lorac Pro Palette 2.


When choosing a nail polish in the Fall, I stick with more earthy or darker tones.



As for clothes, this is how we pretty much walk around in the fall.... just sad ;)



Have a great day!

Come visit and have all of our Fall!! Half of Fall is a mindset I think... getting ready for the change in colors (nails, makeup, hair) and different accessories, more red wine, warm coffees and pumpkin candles!

I love the nail polish that you picked - it's so pretty and I love a purple/berry color!! Fall in Florida is a little off - but it's totally perfect!!

Fall is my favorite time of year! We have a pretty short Fall season in Texas, but I soak up every single minute of it. Love that polish color!

I kinda wish I was in FL all year round... love the heat and not having to wear a jacket 9 months for the year... we can totally switch places and you could move to Canada :-)

Yes, I couldn't have explained it better myself. :) I do love being able to wear true fall clothes now that we don't live in FL anymore. I always wore a scarf, no matter the temperature there! I can't wait to start painting my nails in some darker tones, they've been bare for weeks, you've inspired me to get my stash out and see what I have. :) Hope you get some cool breezes soon!

I definitely have my eye on the Lorac Pro Palette 2, and that polish is gorgeous!

I want that polish :)

Totally agree with the darker nail polish, so fun. And don't be too jealous of our fall, because last year Ohio had 5 months of snow. Loads and loads of snow, basically before fall really started. Terrible. I would've given anything for Florida weather ;)

OMG I seriously need that scarf!! And yup; a scarf, tank top and beans is our "fall" attire! :)
