Ever since going through Christian Dior's Fall 2011 runway show the cogs in my head have been turning over how to incorporate that kind of awesomeness into my own style. The first thing that occurred to me was a manicure. Since voicing this plan, however, I've had a lot of questions as to how on earth you turn an entire runway show into a manicure. My thinking was that Dior focused heavily upon using different textures, patterns and colours in a really phenomenal way. Similarly, nail polish is available in a variety of textures now (matte, suede, glossy), and patterns are not a problem for me. So, much like the
last manicure I posted, I'm planning on using different base colours for my nails overlaid with different patterns. But this time I'll be using different textures too!
The reason I haven't already started this mani is because until now I was lacking a few crucial colours. But yesterday while running errands I had a chance to go to Shoppers and get what I needed! Below are examples of the patterns, colours and textures I'm planning to work with, as well as the nail polishes I picked up so you can have some idea of what I'm thinking. Can't wait to see how it turns out!
