Prada Spring 2013 Nail Art DIY on TeenVogue.com

I must say that I am proud of my second nail art feature with TeenVogue.com. I had been dying to use this Prada Spring 2013 collection for nail inspiration and the features and photos just look insane. Mark did such an amazing job with these, I love how editorial they look. (p.s. he also just updated his website, so check it out!)

Holiday Nail Art with Look TV

The holidays are here and I'm celebrating with festive nail art inspired by Michael Kors, Marc Jacobs and Alexander McQueen. Enjoy!

Derek Lam Fall 2012 Runway Inspired Nails

Derek Lam's florals are a major fall favorite and to get the runway-inspired look on my nails I went with different sized variations of the flower pattern. I used a black or white base and painted flowers on top using my paint pens. Since the zoomed out view doesn't offer a lot of detail on its own, I wanted to capture some of the finer aspects of the actual flowers.

Polished Nail Art

In case somehow you missed it, you should probably watch my new nail show on Look TV. I've gone ahead and pulled each look out separately so that you can choose between Dior, Altuzarra and Chanel.

Christopher Kane Aqua Gel Clutch-Inspired Nails

I have a definite soft spot for fashion that is also fun. Christopher Kane always delivers on that front and his Fall 2011 collection was no exception. The item that stood out on everyone's list was his Aqua Gel-Filled PVC Clutch. I knew I wanted to adapt this piece to my nails if only to bring back so many memories of trading stickers during recess and being lucky enough to score a jelly one.

To get the look, I layered a Deborah Lippmann sheer purple with an Essie neon pink and swirled the two colors while they were still wet. After letting the colors partially dry, I took the back of my brush and drew wavy lines, revealing my natural nail underneath, then finished it off with a clear top coat.

Stella McCartney Resort Nails

As I mentioned before, I am completely in awe of Stella McCartney's Hawaiian print collection for Resort 2012. I thought this might be the perfect opportunity to try out the marble nail techniques I've been dying to experiment with for a while now. After all, if there's any way to capture kitschy-cool waves on your nails, it's going to be with marble swirls of color.

I will spare you the messy how-to's, but it basically included a lot of water, nail polish, lotion to protect my fingers from the polish, trial, and error. The marble looks is pretty awesome when you get it right, but if you are going to try it out, I do not recommend using white as it goes on too sheer. Add a few flowers and you're Stella-approved.
