Wait did I say nude?
The Chief Blonde is wearing Crab Tree and Evelyn Mocha Nail Lacquer ($6), Gold Double Happiness Necklace (gift from friend, similar) and O-ring Gold Heart Ring (bought in Zurich Switzerland, similar).
I hate applying my own nail polish, do you?
It’s not that I hate nail polish application, it’s just that I am such a spaz. I am the messiest person in the world and it seems that my skin gets more nail polish on it then my finger tips. BUT…guess what I discoverd? I was sent these lovely nude shades from Crabtree &Evelyn. They not only stay on a long time, but also apply easily. With them being nude shades, even my tiny little mess-ups are very hard to see. BONUS!
My favorite of the four new shades is the Mocha which I have on my nails above. The perfect shade for fall manicures. I like the staying power of the polish (2-3 days with no top or bottom coat.) The Crabtree & Evelyn Nail Lacquers:
- Reinforces and protects nails
- Formulated without camphor, dibutyl phthalates, formaldehyde or toluene
- Universal shades that flatter every skin tone

Which is your favorite of the four new shades? Will you be wearing nudes for your fall manicures?

These are great and definitely my style. I like shades that are more sheer and neutral. Now, that it’s winter you could step it up by doing darker versions of these shades if you wanted.
I love Almond & Peaches & Cream. oops that’s two! so pretty can’t decide. I’ve yet to try C&E polishes & these are beautiful and perfect for work. Wishlist~
I love that shade and especially with the gold jewelry accents. It is the perfect shade for both work and play.
I love the Nude colored Nail Polish!!
My favorite is the Peaches and Cream. I’ll probably wear a mix of nudes and some color for the fall.
I love the Mocha shade also. I always lean towards softer shades on my nails when I wear polish. I usually do my own nails. I don’t enjoy it but if I even think of getting my nails done professionally, I am sure to break a nail or two!
Yes I have so much trouble applying my own finger nail polish. Thank goodness I have 5 granddaughters that love putting on my fingernail and toenail polish for me. They are all such Angels. I love your OPI Nail Polish, in the My Dogsled is A Hybrid shade it’s one of my favorite colors.
I really do like the Nail polish you have on the Crab Tree and Evelyn Mocha Nail Lacquer ! It so soft and it does have a Beautiful Metallic look to me! Yes I do not like putting on my own Nail Polish.. I seem to get a bit messy and turns out much Prettier when I have it Done!
Hi Cathy. I am a mess with nail polish too. That’s why if I wear any, it’s usually these nude shades. Shelley Zurek
I do love the nude manicures. However I trend towards the Metallic nude colors. I love the shine of the metallic! I also prefer the Beige metallic. Very Pretty>
I like these colors.
I don’t hate doing nail polish, I just don’t do it. This is a nice color for fall.
I like nude polish. I typically choose browns for my make-up and nail polish is the same way. I’d wear all of the four shades, and I am glad they are in style.
My favorite is Peaches and Cream.
I’m really bad at doing my own nails, too, and I like nude shades because they need less maintenance.
I used to love bright colors but lately I’ve been really loving nude shades!
Crabtree and Evelyn is one of my favorite stores; EVER! I change my polish every two or three days and I have found the older I become, the more I appreciate nude colors. It seems that nude shades make my fingers look longer and result in thinner looking fingers.
I really like nude colors. I think they are classy and never really go out of style.
I tend to lean toward Nude, White and really hard to tell light pink. I very rarely change. So I will be wearing Nudes this fall.
Nude colors just rock, anytime of the year! Thanks for the review of ‘crabtree and evelyn’ nail polishes, they are affordable!
I love that color on you, not sure how it would look on me but its a great color, knowing me I would end up adding sparkles or glitter ,,
Try it Dotty. You might be surprised. The Chief Blonde
