New Year, New Nails!

Ok, so we know you may all be busy caught up in all the excitement and madness that follows on the run up to Christmas, eg. Christmas shopping, wrapping presents, parties, etc, but with only 3 weeks to go until New Years Eve, it is so easy to overlook preparing for your New Years Eve celebrations, so it is not too early to think about your New Year Nails.

You may want to stick to the current winter trend of sticking to darker shades, such as Taffeta, and the lovely christmassy Rosso Red, or if you feel you want to match your nail colour's to the recent spell of frosty arctic weather that we have currently been experiencing, then what could be more fitting than Organza. It's beautiful sheer pearly white shimmer immediately conjours up images of frosty winter mornings, where you are faced with having to de ice your cars before you leave for work each day, and the pretty sight of fresh dew on the grass. In addition to this, the glittery tone is the perfect option for New Years Eve parties, enabling you to shimmer and sparkle on the dancefloor.


This colour is a popular choice with Rosie Hunting-Whitley.

And of course, there is no need to stop on New Years Day. Why not carry on the trend into the New Year? Once the Winter is over, why not mark the thawing of the frost and ice by wearing Nubar Baby Blue, which is set to be the hottest new shade for spring. This exciting new shade is already popular with various different celebrities, such as Diana Vickers. Hopefully many others will follow her lead!
