Top 5 | My favorite fall lipsticks

Today I want to share with you my top 5 lipsticks for fall! It's no secret I love my lip products, so obviously I'm going to have some favorites for the fall time.

Hoy quiero compartir mi top 5 de pintalabios para el otoño. No es ningún secreto que me encantan los pintalabios, así que obviamente tengo algunos favoritos para este tiempo otoñal.

 1. MAC's Rebel lipstick: Rebel is a satin lipstick from MAC's permanent collection (so it's easy to find it) and one of their most popular ones for this time of the year. If you like the dark lips trend, this is your lipstick. It's a dark purple color but very wearable and pretty. It's my favorite one out of these five.

Pintalabios Rebel de MAC: es un pintalabios satin de la colección permanente de MAC (por lo que es fácil de encontrar) y uno de los más populares para esta época del año. Si te gusta la moda de los labios oscuros, este es tu pintalabios. Es un color morado oscuro pero es muy bonito y te lo puedes poner mucho. ¡Es mi favorito de los cinco!

2. Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stain in Smitten: this is also a dark purple color, but it's lighter than Rebel. This product is a stain but it's very creamy and it won't dry your lips, which is always a good thing.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stain en el color Smitten: también es un morado oscuro, pero es más claro que Rebel. Este producto es un tinte labial pero es muy cremoso y no te seca los labios, lo cual es bueno.

3. Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stain in Honey: as you can tell, I really like these. I chose this one because it's a light color but it's not bright. It's a muted mauve that I think it's perfect for the fall time. Even though I'm putting it as my third option, it's the one I wear the most out of the five.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stain en el color Honey: como puedes ver me gustan mucho. He elegido este porque es un color claro pero no es brillante. Es un malva apagado que creo que es perfecto para el otoño. Aunque lo estoy poniendo en el número tres, es el que más uso de estos cinco.

4. Maybelline lipstick in Lady Red (#527): everyone needs a red lipstick, and to me, this is the best one out there. Maybelline lipsticks are very good quality and this is just amazing. It has cool undertones so it makes your teeth look whiter than a warm red would.

Pintalabios de Maybelline en Lady Red (#527): todo el mundo necesita un pintalabios rojo, y para mí, este es el mejor. Los pintalabios de Maybelline son de muy buena calidad y este me encanta. Tiene tonos fríos lo que hace que los dientes parezcan más blancos que si fuesen tonos cálidos.

5. Maybelline Super Stay 10h tint gloss in lasting pink: another stain...but this one has a glossy finish. Even though the color is called lasting pink, I'd say it's more on the red side, but anyway, it's very pretty.

Maybelline Super Stay 10h tint gloss en lasting pink: otro tinte labial...pero este tiene un acabado gloss. Aunque el color se llama lasting pink, yo diría que el color es más tirando a rojo, pero bueno, es un color muy bonito. 

I also make a video on this, so here it is in case you want to see them (and some swatches) in "real life":

También he hecho un vídeo de esto, así que os lo dejo aquí por si los quieres ver (y los swatches) en "la vida real":

Nail of the day - Neon party

"Flip Flop Fantasy" by China Glaze is the perfect nail polish color for this summer. I was very impressed with the color itself because I thought it was going to look worse on the nails than the color you can see on the bottle, but I was wrong. The color is the same: neon coral.

Depending on the light it can look either orange, pink or coral; but I think this last one is its real color because it's the one you see most of the time with natural lighting.

I was surprised again when I painted the first nail and saw it was matte. A friend told me that all neon nail polishes are matte the other day, but I didn't know it when I was painting them. If you like matte nails then you're going to love this nail polish but if you prefer glossy nails, you can always apply a top coat.

Fall Trends

 First of all, I want to say that this post shows my own personal take on fall trends. When I go through actual stores or online stores and I see something repeatedly, I consider that an upcoming trend.

Stripes:

9.95€ - H&M

13.75€ - Forever 21

19.95€ - H&M

24 pounds - Topshop 

40 pounds - Topshop

58 pounds - Topshop

I love this trend because it continues summer's biggest trend: nautical. And I don't know if you realized, but the third top is the same I showed you on my haul but in a different color. As you can see, the width, color, texture or print of the stripe doesn't matter. 

My favorite item: the half sequin top from Topshop. It's just beautiful, and I'm probably going to buy it. It's just gorgeous and I love how the stripes gradually change width and the sheer sleeves.

Dark red:

12.44€ - Forever 21

19.75€ - Forever 21

53.84€ - Motel (found at ASOS)

20 pounds - Miss Selfridge

25 pounds - Miss Selfridge

28 pounds - Miss Selfridge

Any dark red color is going to be a huge success this fall; and it will work in fashion and beauty. Dark red eyeshadows and dark red nails are very pretty and will look great.

My favorite item: the tank top from Miss Selfridge. I love how it crosses in the back and also looks very light weight, which I love.

Ankle Boots:

59.95€ - H&M

69.95€ - Zara

75.95€ - Zara

68 pounds - Topshop

45.95€ - Zara

This is my favorite trend out of them all, and also the biggest one. Every store that I go or look at has ankle boots, either flat, with a wedge, or heel. I love ankle boots, as you know I already bought a pair, and I'm going to buy at least 2 more pairs. I think they're great for fall and winter since they cover your whole foot, so it'd be great if I can buy a couple more.

My favorite item: dark red suede ankle boots by Topshop. They cover 2 of these trends and are very fashion forward and pretty. I love the platform and the heel, and I think they'll be perfect to go out at night. 

H&M and Stradivarius haul!

This morning I went shopping to H&M and Stradivarius and here's what I bought:

Scarf from H&M - 9.95€

I love scarves, so when I saw this one I had to buy it. It could go along with the tribal trend even though it's not one of my favorites; but for some reason (and you'll realized pretty soon) I'm loving brown colors for this fall.

Oversized top from H&M - 19.95€

This top looks huge on the hanger and it's pretty big even though it's a size "small", so I'm going to wear it with a skinny belt around the waist to make it look preppier.

Wedge booties from H&M - 39.95€ 

These booties are my absolute favorite item from this haul. The wedge is not too tall (8.5 cm) so that's great cause I'm planning on wearing them to class and I don't want to look like a giant.

Metal ring from H&M - 4.95€ 

My mom didn't like this ring when I showed it to her, but I love it. If you see it from the front side, the top is kinda flat and looks almost as a mirror.

Bracelet from H&M - 2.95€

I do not like snake prints and all that kind of stuff, but this bracelet looks very cute on and I just had to buy it (it was also VERY cheap as you can see).

Trench coat from Stradivarius - 59.95€ 

This kind of trench coats give a very preppy vibe with every outfit, so I think it's perfect for me. I also love the color (you've realized already). I've been wearing this kind of coat since I was very little but there was this period of time when I stopped liking it; somehow, the love is back.

Elastic pants from Stradivarius - 22.95€

I never thought I was going to buy any tight pants but it looks very pretty on, and it's perfect to wear it with boots this fall/winter. The color is chocolate brown, even though this photo looks a little different.

I hope you liked it and maybe got some ideas for fall fashion :)
