She’s Electric: Lagerfeld’s New Nails

lagerfeld nails.jpg
Is Chanel’s Black Satin nail polish finally fading out? Two signs point to yes:

1. The girls on The Hills were sporting it on this week’s episode, meaning the trend is way past its peak.

2. Karl Lagerfeld woke up his black sheaths with electric pink nails on his runway yesterday, and color will also explode on Chanel’s imminent Fall catwalk.

Those of you that want to be ahead of your time, take note: you can get this shade for $3 at any drug store. The recipe:

1 bottle of N.Y.C. New York Color Nail Polish in Taxi Yellow Creme (#114)

1 bottle of N.Y.C. New York Color Nail Polish in Fusion Pink (#237)

Pour a pool of the yellow polish onto a plastic container lid; then drop the pink polish into the yellow and keep mixing until you get the perfect neon pink. Use it wave to Karl, crash the Chanel show, and get internationally famous - or at least get away from last year’s inky nails.

I agree! Chanel was also trying to way overplay this trend, coming out with Noir Ceramic. I'm ready to switch to neon pink.

This weekend I saw two very cool girls, in two different places, both wearing neon pink nail polish. Yup, we're tired of the black.

Next to the hot pink, some of my clients are now overlaying the hot pink with opalescent NYC Color, looks good if you do it lightly :)
