New season nailed!

A pretty set of well manicured nails finish off every outfit, it cannot be denied! They can be changed to suit your style or even your mood and the variety of different polishes and nailart accessories available on the market means that having a perfectly polished set of talons no longer requires an expensive salon visit. 
Whether you visit a nail technician or do a DIY job we will be arming you with the latest trends in nail colours and embellishment to get you ready for the season ahead.


As far as colour goes, anything goes! Neutrals are still as popular as ever and are great with any outfit choice. One of my favourites is Particulere by Chanel.




 If you plan on embracing some of the new winter shades look no further than your wardrobe for inspiration. Oxblood and berry shades are huge this season in fashion and this has filtered down through the cosmetic houses. Wear as a full set for maximum impact or mix and match with a more neutral colour or a shimmer for a fun and playful take on the trend. 



Grey shades are also set to be extremely popular this winter. On a recent nail appointment I chose a dark charcoal colour in a glossy gel finish. I think it looks very glam! 



Nail art is still a big deal but is set to take a more refined and grown up turn. Finish your look with a shimmery glitter polish to get you Christmas party ready or add gold beading for something a bit more special.



 The louboutin inspired look I wore a few months ago also looks like it's catching on with many bloggers loving the idea. This look is best on stiletto shape nails. Keep the remainder of your nail plain in a good nude or black shade. 



One emerging trend which I predict will be big over the coming months is this tortoiseshell effect. I'm going to try it on my next appointment so I'll let you know how it goes!
