Fall Colors: Green Nails?
During Autumn, leaves turn from green to red and brown. But this year, expect green to stick around. The most exciting nail colors coming out for the Fall and Winter are emerald, seafoam, hunter, celery, and forest.

Fragmentation & Faking the Funk
This month, The Bad Pitch Blog has really great piece called "Try Being One Person" that delves into the extremely common practice of being different people at work and at home. I highly recommend it to anyone who, like me, spent many of their best years trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Every ambitious professional has to eventually ask the what-if questions: What if I got a job that better suited my personality? What if I could find a career that complemented my home life? What if I wasn't afraid to do something different? What if I'm really qualified for a position that hasn't been created yet? What if my job is to create that position for myself?
If you don't believe anything else, believe that there's a reason why these questions come up. If you can find a way to make the leap - hopefully sooner rather than later - JUMP, baby.
