Let's Talk About Nails
Have you thought about styling your nails according to what you are wearing??? No?? I found these tips on CNN Living, if you want to check out for yourself, here is the website address: CNN Living.
Here we go!!
Opt for jet black with an unexpected matte top coat or rock a super shiny snow white nail to make bright colors pop even more, creat a stark contrast to fall's bold colored clothing.
Lace
Avoid wearing black polish with black lace which will end up looking goth. A tip for you, Jennifer Lopez applies lace directly on her nails, it definitely has more impact."
Dots
Optic dots are big and brash this season, keeping nails dark with a deep grey shade that won't compete with your clothing, and go for a crème texture rather than a metallic.
Tough Chic
If you're rocking the tough chic look you probably like living on the edge, so you can pull off something a bit unexpected on the hands. Pairing up with Chanel's Peridot, a holographic multi-dimensional gold with hints of green.
Ladylike
This season shape is playing a key part in the overall effect of your nails. As opposed to barely there nudes, go for a creamy, opaque nude this season. Oval is totally in, so regardless of your nail length, pull out your file and round out those square edges!
Fur
Fur really is a luxurious fashion statement, so keep it classic with a red nail polish, now steer away from the tomato shades and pick a deep, burnt crimson. It looks rich and decadent.
- You can also be very daring, creative, and imaginative and DYI on your nails the new trends for the season like the ones below:
- This next one is even easier. You apply the polish on your nails and starting from the bottom of you nail you make semi-circles, like a half-moon, and keep going until you reach the center of the nail, like this:
- You cannot mess this one up!!
