Bridal Nail Ideas You Can Steal from New York Fashion Week

Charmaine Kon by Charmaine Kon on Apr 22, 2016

While New York’s celebrating its bridal fashion week, we’re pulling bridal nail inspo from this spring’s runway.

Some ideas to add to your ‘Dream Wedding’ scrapbook!

1 Gold Flakes on Negative Space

Seen on the Alice + Olivia show.

We love how simple, yet elegant this look is. Metallic flakes add a nice pop of interest to clear varnish. Scatter metallic paper all over the nail, or at the tips.

Embellishments like confetti and Ciaté Caviar (available at Sephora stores) work great. Make sure the whiteness of the whites match for that chic, subtle look

Instead of the classic French manicure, paint metallic tips on a clear, pastel, or matte base. It makes a pretty, contemporary look.

Select a nude and metallic colour that are close to each other. Then paint each colour on a few nails.

Play around with complimentary colours to find a combo you like. We love this ice queen look of frosty pink and blue.
