First off, I'd like to apologize for the complete lack of makeup and those atrocious dark circles...yikes! So earlier this evening, I was stuck in night class and the professor started rambling about one thing or another. You remember how in Charlie Brown the teacher is always just saying, "Wah wah wah wah wah"? Well, it was just like that. So as you might imagine, my mind started to drift on about happier things like makeup, blogging, and nail varnish. Luckily, I was seated far enough in the back of the lecture hall and managed to snap a photo of something that has kept me smiling the last few days: candy corn nail art!

Keeping in the spirit of autumn and trick-or-treating and all things good and Halloweenish, I thought it might be fun to try these nails and truth be told, I've NEVER gotten so many compliments! All it takes is a few coats of white nail varnish, orange and yellow up top, a mildly steady hand (or in my case, my Mother's), and a lot of patience. The colors are bright and they pop, and so many people instantly get what they are suppose to be! The first time I spotted these nails was on Post Grad Crafts blog. Just found her blog the other day and can't get over all her nifty ideas! ou should try this one out, it is so simple and cute!

October is without a doubt my most favorite month of the year. Who can resist little munchkins dressed up like ballerinas and ghosts? Or the mahusive buckets of sweets at the grocery stores? Or carving jack-o'-lantern carving, scary movies on the telly, leaves changing colors...I'm getting so excited just thinking of it!
So in honour of all this festive wonderfulness, here are a few nail varnishes that have been helping me get in the spirit of things! Warning: I may have had a little too much fun photographing these.
