How many of you love getting French manicures? For me, it’s my nail version of the LBD. Then I discovered an ultra femme version of this classic nail look. This new trend was spotted on the spring runways during last Fashion Week: models at Vena Cava’s spring 2011 show were wearing a black and beige version, as seen below:

Give your nails a new look for your upcoming holiday parties (or just because!). Try Sally Hansen’s Color Quick nail color pens in a natural color like sheer beige, sand shimmer, or stone, plus black for the base. Use gold or silver for the perfect New Year’s look. Or, go mod and use two contrasting colors (like orange and fuchsia) for eye-popping style you can switch up endlessly (and without the price tag of a classic French manicure)!
