Barielle Cosmetics : Sophisticated Lady Collection

Hi, my darling readers! Happy Hump Day! Just two more days to the weekend and a long weekend too at that here in the US! And now that Fall, my absolute favorite time of the year, is just around the corner, I look forward to the weekends even more anxiously!

Ah, Fall...when the viciously high temperatures of NYC start to take a dip and the weather has a bit of a bite of to it early in the morning and late at night, when the trees are resplendent with warm golds and reds and when commuting is not such a pain because you're neither freezing nor sweating to death! Oh how I love Fall!

And speaking of Fall, don't you just love the Fall colors? Rich, dark, vampy colors and warm shimmers? I know I do! And Barielle is coming out a gorgeous collection just perfect for Fall, which I have up for review--here's a look at the upcoming Sophisticated Lady Collection!

(All descriptions is italics and quotation marks are from Barielle's press release.)

First up, I have London High Tea--Barielle describes it as "a creamy bright pink". To my eye, this gorgeous pink is reminiscent of English roses, with a hint of a gold shimmer--quite the appropriate name then, right? The application on this was lovely--no streaking or patchiness. I used 3 smooth coats for the swatches below, with one coat of G&G's HK Girl to finish the look. Isn't this a lovely feminine shade?








With flash, to show the shimmer off!




The second polish in this collection is Dinner at 8, described as a "plum red rose" and it's a vibrant rose red shade that's both sophisticated and eternally sexy! Again, no issues with the application and I used 3 coats for the swatches below, with one coat of G&G's HK Girl to finish the look.









The third polish in this collection is In Good Taste, described as a "chocolate brown", which is also part of the Nude and Naught collection reviewed HERE. This unique shade is indeed a shade that calls to the mind the milkiest of chocolates! Application was a breeze and I used 3 coats, with one coat of G&G's HK Girl to finish the look. This polish also appears in the Nude and Naughty collection reviewed .






The fourth polish is this Fall-centric collection is Edgy, described as a "deep purple". This is a rich, eggplant-toned purple in some lights and an-almost-burgundy in others--this polish certainly lives up to its name! The application on this was smooth and even and I only needed 2 coats for the swatches below, with one coat of G&G's HK Girl to finish the look.








Last but definitely not the least, I have for you Tres Chic, described as a "creamy black-blue". This dusty blue shade reminds me of a favorite pair of jeans, flattering on most and yet always trendy! No issues to report with application and I used 2 coats for the swatches below, with one coat of G&G's HK Girl to finish the look.








So there you have it--a sneak peek into Barielle's upcoming Fall 2013 Sophisticated Lady collection! You will be able to find each of these shades HERE as of September, for the price of $8.00 for a full-size, 0.45 oz bottle or for $25 for the entire collection!

So what do you think of this collection? Which is your must-have Fall shade? Or do you need them all? Tell me in the comments section below--as always, I love to hear from you!!

Until next time,
