Nail Fetish

It's kinda hard not to be spoiled in Shanghai. The fine dining to street food, cheap(er) manual labor costs of ayis to drivers, 60mins foot massage to 90mins full body oil massage...a girl really can't complain much with the easy access and the lower cost of living that Shanghai provides.

I'm huge on nails. Not the gels or acrylics...but the simple and classy clean cut look of well manicured nails. A woman can never hide their true age...but it can be well maintained, hands including.

Was checking out one of my daily reads, and saw their post of Fall 2009 Nail Trends...too irresistibly cute to not share!!



Browns, bronze, dark undertones are in for this fall!


The lace-design aint anything new...
but note to self: must try the "plaid-look"!


 
Oooohhh....Jenny will <3 the green polish!! A new trend is to create "chunky" nails. You can do that by layering different colors; or paint chunky glitter polish UNDER regular colored polish. This gives any old nails a quick fix-up and adds texture to regular polish, for an added "omph" look. I think this only suits dark colors  though, because its subtle and less catchy. *another must try!!
