Spring Collection 2014

I'm always really interested in what's news and trending before it's time. I seem to have a nick for the colors that are about to trend. Don't you ever feel that you keep looking for the an exact color for months and then, all of the sudden, this color is prominent in all stores.

What I'm most excited about it how the fashion industry has taken a great stance for nail art. They are highlighting this as the "it" finish to complete any look. Besides color trending, the nail art community is growing at a fast pace and making a stamp as a strong category of its own.

I also have a strong love/hate relationship to the fact that the big brands are following suit in the indie brand polishes. All of the sudden these weird mix of glitters and finishes are available at a mass market. Yes, I love it due to the fact that now these finishes are so accessible, but I dislike the fact that they are robbing the indie feel making them more mainstream than special.

Back to what the post was about, spring trends.

Embellished Whites
There was a lot of whites and nudes with crisp finishes such as rhinestones and pearl accents. I want to try a white base with white matte glitter, let's see how that turns out.

Moon mani
Moon manis are keeping strong but this time try it with nudes such as beiges with white moons etc. the moons are a bit bigger now so don't be afraid to exaggerate.

Metallics
Whether you go for a full metallic nail, ombres or accent metallics, this season you will see it everywhere.

Striped nails
Cutouts, vertical lines, horizontal lines. Keep it simple but lines will be a dominant feature.

Unexpected Pastels
Pastels that are not really your typical go to such as orange, hot pink etc. Think Easter with a twist.



What I see most in the fashion world for nails is simplicity, you don't have to be a master painter to be on trend, just get yourself some nice nail art brushes (I got mine at amazon) and learn how to o glitter gradients, works every time ;)

Did you see anything new or exciting???
