| From Rag & Bone SS 2013 (same show as I have pictures from on my BB cream post) I stole this picture from a great Aussie site that has pictures of most of the nails coming down the SS 2013 runway |
So I was looking at a bunch of pictures coming off the runways
and I came to three conclusions: a) designers are really nutty b) nail art is
still going strong and c) that it is high up keep nail season. Not only is
there crazy nail art, but also a lot of pastels and whites which are always
high maintenance even if they are seemingly not. The problem with whites (and
pastels) is that the formulas are generally thick, they require several coats,
and show flaws easily. Funky nails also draw attention to the flaky, lizard
hands that Canadians have a tendency to get in the winter time, and we are too
impatient to wait until July to wear the spring trends. So dig out your hand
cream, cuticle balm and buffing sticks. Here is some inspiration from the SS
2013 shows:
