Welp, due to some circumstances here at home, I didn't get to go to Miami : ( I was bummed, but also excited that I didn't have to travel solo, haha. (I'm not the most daring of travellers, you see...)
However the reason that kept me from going is a GOOD thing, so hopefully I'll be able to report lots of fun news to y'all soon. Let's just say there are changes on the horizon that will be so great for our little family! (And no, I am not with child, ha!)
Anywho, so today I wanted to talk about a trend that I'm LOVING. Lately, I've been seeing the one glittered nail trend from this past summer carry over into more fall-ish looking manicures. Stars like Vanessa Hudgeons have been rocking it on the red carpet and I le dig.

On a whim, I went to Target yesterday and bought the supplies to create my own glittered nail mani. The results below were attained by two coats of Essie's Devil's Advocate (a dark, deep plum) followed by two coats of Sephora for OPI's Only Gold for Me on only my left ring finger nail. I was quite pleased with the results!
I also heard some fun symbolism behind this mani. Married, Engaged or Committed chicas paint their left ring finger nail. Single and Ready to Mingle girls paint their right ring finger nail! Clever, no?
I guess if you aren't into nails, you could always paint up some glittery boots! These are adorbs...

Be blessed, lovelies-
Cute cute cute! I haven't tried it myself, but I love the look.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great idea. I've been wanting to try this for awhile (grey nail polish with silver glitter) but haven't gotten around to it yet.

I am itching to try the slow fade glitter on my nails. Just need to get my supplies!
ReplyDeleteI did this about a month ago and loved it! However, glitter naipolish doesn't stay on my nails very well so it came off way too soon!

Thanks to Pinterest I have jumped on the glitter bang-wagon too! I loved glitter nail polish in Jr. high and I ams o glad it is back in style. And I love that it doesn't chip as easily! :)
ReplyDeleteI love having an accent nail!
ReplyDeleteI adore this!! I think Im going to glitter a nail tonight!
ReplyDeleteUm, yes. I WILL be doing this. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteHaven't heard of that Essie color yet. May have to take a Target trip as well. Did you get the gold there too?? My local Target has been low on color options lately. Fingers crossed they've restocked by the time I get there tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this idea!! I am a massage therapist so I have to keep my nails short (sigh) but I'm going to go for it anyways! Thanks so much for the great up to date fashion advice, I love it. God bless:)

i love how this looks and have been meaning to try it out so your post was just what i needed to get myself over to the store to grab some sparkle! i used opi's-lincoln park after dark which is super similar to essies devils advocate and color clubs- take the stage. lovee how it came out :)
ReplyDeleteI tried this a few weeks ago after seeing it on Pinterest and loved it! :)
ReplyDeleteOK, I've been seeing this and wondering what the meaning was behind it (or if there was one). So glad to know! I love the look and will def try. The plum + gold is perfection. And those booties are super cute too. xo
ReplyDeleteIf anyone gets the follow-up comments on here and is curious- I did the glitter fade trend on my nails last night! Today's post shows it, so cute!

ReplyDeleteGot the Essie, went for a silver glitter. Painted the thumb, instead of my 4th finger, as my nail is tiny. LOVE IT
ReplyDeleteLove the sparkly nail!
