The fashion of season of spring begins in March, a month from now. So, I've complied a series of nail trends to welcome spring/summer 2012 ;) Still don't have a good camera to photograph my own polish, so I'm borrowing from other sources to show you swatches of the colors. In no particular order:
1. Greens
Recall: 2010 was the year of the yellows, 2011 was the year of the turquoise. This year, green will be the it-color of the season. From light mint greens to beautiful teal shades ;)

2. Nudes
Nude colors are romantic, elegant and feminine. Not only are they suitable for professional settings, these colors are also quickly becoming a fashion statement.

3. Orange
Tangerine was named Pantone's color of the year. Orange has been spotted on numerous runways and it's quickly becoming a hot trend. Every hot chick needs this sassy, eye-catching, sexy color!

Fun, flirty, and easy to create! Glittery manicures are going to be big this season.

5. Nail Art
Nail art doesn't have to be over the top and hard to do. Simple designs like polka dots, stripes, half-moons, funky french tips can do wonders to spice up a monotonous manicure. Ladies around the world are realizing that cute manicures can be done in the comfort of their own homes for much less. I mean, just observe the nails around you the next time you go out. You'd be surprise to see how popular nail art is ;)
I still don't have a proper camera to document my nail art :( Pictures from the previous posts were from hand phone. But fret not, I will continue to post nail art ideas ;) Stay tune!

| My nails! Ideas enough to last from Monday to Saturday. Hah :D |
FYI: I am not being sponsored by Essence or anything. Just that lately I've been obsessed with this brand. It applies smoothly and the brush fans out nicely for even application. Some colors are rather sheer but with a few coats it dries out perfectly.
If you are not one that keeps up with trends, no harm investing in classic, evergreen colors like reds and neutrals ;)
