Essie can do no wrong in my eyes.  Thier luxeffects still continue to dazzle me.  My latest luxe obsession is Stroke of Brilliance a sparkling icy blue glitter!  Especially over Don’t Sweater It from the fall release.

Since before Halloween I’ve been sporting a lot of black & near black shades so the switch to neutrals was a welcomed change.
Don’t Sweater It was a bit darker on than expected making it a perfect fall basic.  The entire fall collection are must have basics in my opinion.

You know what’s even more perfect than the fall release from Essie?  The winter release!  As if that wasn’t enough, Essie collaborated with Bauble Bar to create coordinated arm parties with each shade from the Winter Leading Lady Collection!  Check out Bauble Bar to create your personalized arm party!  For $50 you pick a shade with matching bracelet then pick any 2 other bracelets to make a coordinated set!  PLUS if you are new to Bauble Bar you get 100 points just for signing up which you can put toward your first purchase giving you $10 off making the set $40 with FREE SHIPPING!  This collab is to die for so sign up, pick your set and arm party like its 1999!

From left to right (furthest to closest).  Fall Stylenomics Release:  Don’t Sweater It, Head Mistress, Skirting The Issue, Stylenomics followed by the Winter Leading Lady Release:  Leading Lady, Where’s My Chauffeur, Snap Happy and Beyond Cozy.

I’m a sucker for these mini cubes because you get just enough polish to last you until you’re on to the next trend.  And who doesn’t like anything and everything miniature!   These two collections and the collaboration with Bauble Bar are nothing short of a stroke of brilliance, good job Essie!
