This here is a little tribute to New York inspired by 3.1 Phillip Lim's Spring 2013 collection. His recent collections have been just fabulous, including the recent Pre-Fall line. I can't wait to see what comes down the runway this February.

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.

Proenza Schouler Fall 2012 Nail Art

When I first saw OPI's new Pure Lacquer nail polish strips a lightbulb went off. The metallic scale print  of the "Reptile" strips has a lot in common with the beautiful Far-Eastern patterns from Proenza Schouler's Fall 2012 collection--all they needed was a few angular black lines. To round out the full look, I painted Lady Amherst Pheasats (thank you Vogue.com for identifying the birds) on two fingers on each hand.

Comme des Garcons Play-Inspired Nails

After seeing heart-tipped nails I got it in my mind that I could take things a step further and go after one of my favorite logos, Comme des Garcons Play. I loved how accurately these turned out and it was surprisingly fun to have a ton of little eyeballs staring at me all day. These are very DIY-able, but I do recommend starting out with slightly rounded/pointed nails to get the heart shape.

In the pics I'm holding my new Comme des Garcons jewel wallet and wearing my new favorite item, my Nike Destroyrer jacket.

Louis Vuitton Spring 2012-Inspired Nails

With spring in the air, I wanted to take a collection that felt like it really embodied the season. The sweet oversized eyelet lace in Louis Vuitton's Spring 2012 collection hit that mark to pastel perfection. To capture the look I painted a few nails with pastel shades and left a few bare. Then I painted different eyelet patterns on each nail. To get the eyelet, I made groups of flowers and teardrops--some filled in, some not. On the bare nails I went over the eyelet with sheer pastels to capture the different layers of sheer fabric that Marc Jacobs used.

Some of the polishes that I used are Migi nail art pens, Sally Hansen Smooth and Perfect in Air, OPI Hey! Get in Lime! and Essie Haute as Hello and Demure Vixen

Flare Magazine Feature

I am so excited to share my feature in Flare Magazine's nail supplement for this month. I'm featured alongside fellow runway manicure mavens Fleury Rose and Miss Ladyfinger.

Proenza Schouler Spring 2012-Inspired Nails

I am newly in the mood for spring and always in the mood for a little Proenza Schouler. For this nail look I replicated my favorite pattern from their Spring/Summer '12 show, blue tropical flowers repeated on a bright yellow base. I copied the flowers with Sally Hansen Smooth & Perfect in Air and my fine black nail brush to get the retro wallpaper vibe. To keep it fresh, I went with Sally Hansen Lightening, my favorite bright yellow. I know I always say it, but I loved how these looked on!

Celine Spring 2012-Inspired Nails

What was supposed to be straightforward Celine-inspired nails turned into a sort of goth Valentine's Day look (not exactly the words I would use to describe Phoebe Philo or her fans). To get the look I began with a base of OPI Alpine Snow and used my red nail art pen to outline and fill in red geometric details. The combination of elements from the three looks make this set a little more current.
