It’s Friday and it’s February 1st and love is in the air! Doesn’t Bebop look lovely in pink pearls? As an alternative to last year’s cute hearts Valentine’s Day nail art, I thought I’d take the saucier route this year with a little hot pink, black lace mesh, and gold glitter. Now, there are many …
I saw so many pale nails on the Spring 2013 runways but wasn’t quite really ready to give up on fun nail art designs just yet, so I thought I’d play around with some light neutrals and here’s what I came up with. It is simply a take on the Chanel nails from last year …
My New Year’s Eve manicure is directly inspired by my NYE outfit, which is generally in this color palette, and of course, abstract rather than precise. It actually kind of reminds me of a bathing suit I had in the 80’s, which I loved, obviously 
I was originally leaning towards black with blue only …

Halloween or not, this may be one of my new favorite manicures ever. Done with metallics, shimmers, and fine glitters, any three colors would look fantastic really. After compiling my Halloween manicure ideas from around the web, I was determined to create something different. And while this isn’t spooky, I think it’s a chic way …
Eager to try out the Messy French Tipped Manicure I was inspired by last week, I grabbed my two favorite blue hues and got to work. In the end, my left handiwork looked indeed like a messy French tip. But my other nails, painted with my right hand, looked more like clouds at the end …
I have been waiting and waiting for the weather to turn chilly and the leaves to fall to do a jewel-inspired manicure. And even though it still seems a bit early, I’ll just offer it as inspiration for the coming holiday months. I think this will be a perfect late November {aka Thanksgiving} and Christmas …
Inkblot nails: Rorschach Manicure It’s almost October… really I can’t believe it!! So I’ve been searching for a little Halloween nail art inspiration of course, and the internet is brimming with fun ideas. I gathered up my favorite manicures and my goal is to somehow come up with something new and different… and FUN! And …
After staring at my pretty dried flowers for a few weeks, I finally had a chance to test them out. And really, I LOVE THEM. No surprise there though They’re fun on every nail or would make really pretty accent nails for a more simple approach. I noticed the dye from the red flower …
Inspired by my Camp Beverly Hills sweatshirt, I painted my nails minty green and gray and wanted a little extra pink as accent nails to tie it all together. The colors are admittedly 80’s, and some of my favorites really, and I’m loving the ombre effect. I kind of wish I did it to every …
A few weeks ago I came across Chanel’s silver and pink 2012 runway nails and thought it was a better {and much easier} way to achieve that neon rimmed nail art manicure that didn’t go over so well — and I couldn’t wait to try it! Luckily I had a fresh pack of metallic silver …
I’d been planning a festive red, white, & blue manicure for the 4th of July but hadn’t really come up with any original ideas until I featured a fun tie dye manicure tutorial on BlogHer Style over the weekend and was instantly hit with inspiration. But let me just warn you… this is not a …
A package arrived last week full of goodies for an upcoming Sonia Kashuk beauty review I’ve been asked to do… but I couldn’t wait and had to try out the nail colors asap! They were obviously made to complement each other and I actually love the mint with just the gold tips. But since it’s …
I’m in love with this Rorschach Inkblot manicure. It spawned simply from wanting black and white nails without using polka dots or stripes. That was it really. But after I thought of it, I was perplexed at how to achieve the look without just free-handing it. So I kind of incorporated both. Obviously it can …
After creating this manicure the other day, it occurred to me that I may have seen a similar technique on Consider Me Lovely’s Instagram feed. It wasn’t until a day after I painted my nails though that I realized I may have seen it elsewhere, though I’m still not completely sure. That’s how inspiration works …
