Right on the Nail
My Old Flame..Tiny Dancer and My Romance (one coat of each)..Perky Purple..Angel Eyes..these are a few of my favorite nail polish colors besides black. I dream of receiving the full spa treatment of a manicure and pedicure, but I don’t have the time. That’s why I paint my own nails. This season, the trend that’s buzzing on the fashion scene is bright colored nail polish. It’s an inexpensive accessory to add on for that finishing touch to complete your outfit. And yes, black is still a popular color but it’s now the season to flaunt your bright colored hues. Pinks, purples, and reds are the colors to wear this season!
If you don’t have time or can’t justify the cost of a manicure, simply do it yourself. Keep in mind that dark shades take almost twice as long to dry as light ones. If you’re not good at coloring in the lines, keep practicing..as the saying goes, ‘practice makes perfect.’
Black nail polish had a reputation of a wanna be punk rock star with a gothic theme…but today, black is the ‘it’ color. The black craze began two years ago when Chanel launched their best selling ‘Black Satin’ nail polish and hasn’t slowed down. Just remember…when you wear dark colors, your nails should be trimmed and filed neatly.
Purple is one of my favorite colors; especially the one by Yves Saint Laurent. The color is the same as the picture above. This color is a deep, rich purple that can be used as a substitute for black. Have fun painting!
