I am a fall person. I can’t help it. I was born during the Autumnal Equinox, and I always found something poetic about it because I’ve always felt like I was an old soul with a darker disposition. Maybe that’s one of the reasons why I hate summer so much!
This Sunday, our theme is “Can’t Wait For Fall” and it couldn’t be more appropriate for me. Today I’m teasing you with Pumpkin Delight, a color from the Jessica Spicy Dream collection that is not available just yet. It should be available this month so keep an eye out for it if you love dark, spicy and rich fall colors. If you would like to see swatches of the whole collection, you can click here.
I started out with 2 coats of Pumpkin Delight:
Then I used stamp BM 309 for this design. I’ve got to admit that I hate birds. They freak me out so this was a big step for me to actually have birds on my nails even if they are supposed to be cute owls.
So what do you think of this look? I wasn’t feeling super inspired today. This was actually my second mani for Stamping Sunday; the first one was a complete fail that I didn’t even photograph before taking it off. Don’t you hate it when things don’t work out at all the way you pictured them in your mind?
I hope this weekend has been nice and relaxing for you. The heat has not eased up here in So Cal so I’m beyond grouchy at this point. All I have to say is that next week better be cooler or else…
i love owls!! and I liked how it looks over this nice colors..
Thank you!! 🙂 The color is definitely the star.
I am digging that Pumpkin Spice. I like the shimmer in it. From my phone I can't really make out the owl in your stamping. The use of black to stamp makes me think of fall, duh that's the point, when I see your mani. 🙂 I think you succeeded in the mission.
I keep calling it pumpkin spice but it's actually called pumpkin delight! lol It's my favorite color in the collection….it's just so rich and gorgeous. I bet it would look great on you. It is a little difficult to make out the owls which is why I first thought of stamping with white but I think it is more fall appropriate with black.
I am already a twin but I swear you could be my other one!! I just picked up a Jessica set from TJMaxx on Friday with similar colors!! Looks fabulous AGAIN!!
Thank you! I'm going to check out TJ Maxx for Jessica polishes. Love them and can't resist them at a good price! 🙂
yes they had a wide selection (at least the one by me did) of Jessica, Barielle, Nicole by OPI, mini OPI collections and Cynthia Rowley
I have seen some Jessica polishes but didn't really want them. I got one Barielle set (Vintage Wines) and I passed on a blue set that I am not kicking myself in the ass over. I wish I had been able to find the fabled Deborah Lippmann's but I guess those were rare and HTF. I was those Cynthia Rowley and was going to get one just cause of the name. lol
They had DL in TJMaxx? You know how many times I have passed on a polish thinking oh it'll be there when I go back but poof they're gone.
YES! I thought it was an urban legend but someone posted pics. I think they were selling them for like $5 or something ridiculous like that. The colors didn't seem THAT interesting but still…it's DL!!!!

That Pumpkin Delight is my favorite from that collection and I think the owl stamp is cute! I think it definitely successfully conveys fall!
I do hate it when manis don't work out as you planned…I end up pissed & take it all off out of frustration!
Weather has been eh here…still quite hot, like high 80s-low 90s, but compared to the 105 or whatever craziness last weekend/beginning of last week, it seems tolerable. Fall can still get here now, though!
I love the owls! What a cute stamp!

omg i love these, that color is gorgeous and SO fall!!! and that stamp is adorable!! As you know I am ready for Fall too! I am a Winter Equinox baby so maybe that is also why I hate summer… (with the exception of getting to wear my fabulous sandals, and bright colored nail polish)

I am actually freaked our by birds too, but I love this stamp. I think it looks really cute! That Jessica polish is really pretty and makes me excited for fall and I'm a summer girl! 😉
