Metallic Nails for Autumn

I've noticed that metallic nail polishes are everywhere for the upcoming fall season. They are definitely going to be a huge Fall nail trend. Although I do not own a metallic nail polish, I decided to kind of make my own. My mom recently bought the Bobbi Brown Twilight makeup package during the Nordstrom anniversary sale. The package consisted of a sparkly taupe colored nail polish that I was hoping would be opaque enough to look metallic. Unfortunately it is a bit sheer to wear on its own and doesn't really achieve the metallic look. So I thought if I put it on top of a black nail polish it'll give a nice contrast to the shimmers, thus giving the metallic effect.
I absolutely love how it turned out! The black and the taupe shimmer make such a great combo.
