Summer Trends- Colorful Nails

Jelena J — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 04:44:31 +0000

We often forget the importance of nail polishes and the positive effect nicely painted nails can have on an outfit. During the winter months women tend to paint their nails in neutral or dark colors but as soon as the weather starts getting better, nails follow and the entire palette of yellows, reds, greens or blues becomes the most common sight. Summer is the time to ditch heavy clothes, gloves and footwear and expose your body in all those gorgeous outfits, strappy sandals, peep toe pumps and flip-flops.

When it comes to picking a nail polish color, there is that creative and artistic element to it. You get to chose your favorite colors and decide whether you’re going to match them with your outfits or chose a completely mismatching style to accent your hands and feet and express your personality. Heavily decorated with sparkles, beads, crushed shells, dried flowers or other types of nail art, nails become an important accessory almost like jewelry so whether your nails are short or long, you can’t let them remain unpolished and out of style this summer.

Summertime is perfect for wearing all those bright nail polish colors you didn’t feel confident enough to put on during the winter. Whether is orange, lime green or something from the neon color specter, anything goes as long as it’s bright, shiny and eye-catching. Fashion experts agree that orange, golden, yellowish and burning red tones look the best on sun kissed skin. So, don’t forget to throw in some of those in your make-up bag before you go for a vacation. If you like experimenting and changing your look, taking a little bit of time to do your nails before you hit the beach won’t represent a problem. Candy pink nails are going to make you sweeter than those cocktails at the beach bar, sparkly golden nails will turn you into a sun goddess and bright red will go perfectly with your new Caribbean beauty tan.

If you, however, don’t have the time, skill or the patience to do your nails on your own, you can always pay a visit to a beauty salon and get your manicure and pedicure done by a professional. There are plenty of techniques to fix even the shortest and the most brittle nails and make them glamorous, long and strong. UV gel or acrylic reinforcement or lengthening combined with special 3D and 2D nail art is going to turn your nails into a masterpiece everybody will notice and you won’t have to spend a second fixing them afterwards.

Style Guide- Celebrity Trends for US Summer 2010

Natural Hairstyle- Whether it’s wavy or straight, your everyday do should look as natural as possible. Take Cameron Diaz’s example and you’ll find out exactly why she always gets points for her style. This is a prefect summer look and the best thing about it is that it’s girly, fun and easy to do. Save the neat, polished look for special occasions because it doesn’t go well with the summer heat and pretty soon your hair might end up looking like a messy, greasy blob. Picking your hair up in a loose bun and/or adding an interesting hair band is a much better alternative that’s going to earn you some major style points. Wild Shakira hair, Cameron Diaz laid back surfer look or a more refined Paris Hilton hair, the choices are numerous and neither of them requires paying a visit to a hairdresser.

Bight Colored Pumps- Be brave enough to match your shoes with your mood and that only! Tastefully picked pair of neon colored pumps could make a regular single-color outfit edgy and glamorous. Sure, getting a pair of matching pumps is a fool-proof tactics, but going multi-color is going to show your artistic side and make you stand out. Everybody wants to be around a creative, fashion-conscious person.

Ray Bans- Doesn’t matter if it’s Wayfarer or Aviator, Ray Bans are something you can’t do your celebrity style without. Your going to need sunglasses anyway, why not invest in a pair of these and get yourself the Rihanna/ Lady Gaga look as a bonus?

Nude And Sheer- Nude dresses and sheer tops are the hottest style of the season. And, although going nude or sheer is not exactly the most preferable in the working environment, you can rock this sexy, refined and feminine look anywhere from parties to fancy dinner outings. You have to be careful with this style, thought, because many celebrities proved that you can actually go wrong with it. The point is to tease but still leave plenty to the imagination, not look like you forgot to wear clothes and then wrapped some window drapes around you hoping nobody will notice it. Seamless, neutral colored lingerie and a lot of layers are the corner stone of pulling off a nude and/or sheer look. If Penelope can do it, so can you!
