Lets get Nail Vicious!

Its not just the perfect shoe and bag to make an overall look pop. Your Nails are another key essential that can define your sense of style. Presently nude shades are running the town but for the upcoming spring/2011 these are some of the fashions and styles you will be see:

Moon Manicures: Sometimes you need more than a steady hand to get these moon shapes looking crisp. A nail art pen offers you more control if you can't manage a brush!



 




Metallics & Silver/Gold Foil: Paint a layer of clear basecoat and messily apply gold/silver foil onto your nail tips with a tweezer. Wait until dry, crumble the excess gold/silver foil off, then secure with a layer of clear topcoat. To wear the look with gold/silver polish, use a small piece of plastic to block the parts of your nail you don't want to paint, and randomly reposition it on your nail as you apply gold polish to the tips with short strokes.






Pop Art Graphics :For the ultimoate graphic nail, a good Minx salon would so greatly. Otherwise some opaque nail precision pens and go wild!






Do IT Neutral Baby: Don't match the nude shade too closely to your skin tone, lest you want to look like you have mannequin hands. Go a few shades lighter or darker, and choose a color with a high gloss.


Decals: Some heavy-duty nail glue will ensure your decals stay put. Layer a fast-drying topcoat over to set everything in place. If you want the look but aren't ready to commit, look for polishes with large pieces of glitter.
