Nail Polish makes ur Hands more Beautiful

Nail color speaks reams about you as a person. There are so many colors on the market that it is easy to find one that suits your personality. You can try a variety of colors to suit your mood. So what are the best nail polish colors? Well this will of course depend on your particular moods, and of course your personality. You will be surprised at how much the color of your nails will reflect on you.




Some colors like green nail polish will subtly tell someone, “Here is someone who is exciting to know.” Green is a color that comes in many shades. You can have exciting dark shades to add drama and mystery to your appearance. On the other hand you can use lighter shades to bring out the feminist and gentler side of your personality. There is really a wonderful variety of mood polish in this particular shade.




Dark nail polish will bring out a different trait in your character, perhaps hinting at a little mystery and strength of character. These colors are very dramatic and will certainly turn some heads. Navy blue is one of the colors the celebrities are making famous right now but there are other exciting colors to try. Some people like to go extreme with black nail polish while others like to go retro with dark reds, if you have an olive skin tone these colors will look even more dramatic. It is important to apply this type of nail polish correctly as due to the dark colors even the smallest mistake can be seen.



Trendy polish will tell people that you are interested in fashion and want to be “in with the crowd.” You can change your nail polish according to the season and what the celebrities are wearing. For example matte finishes with grey, navy blue and matte white are being worn by the trend setters this fall. Your nails will not have that shiny look but will look magical at evening occasions.



Metallic nail polish is also in vogue right now. They give a little shine to your nails as opposed to the matte look. Silver colors are the best but gold, bronze, graphite and chrome will make eyes turn. These colors have the advantage of going with anything and at the same time adding drama to your look.
Of course if you want a traditional “French Manicured” look use pale and pastel colors like white, pink and clear colors. You can also use apricot and peach. Using the “French Manicure” colors will tell others that you are a traditional person who also likes a little European class.


Pick your nail polish according to your mood and not necessarily your skin tone. Most of these different shades will look good on any skin color. The key to beautiful nails is not only the color you use but how you look after them. So do not forget to keep your nails healthy and well manicured. This will reflect well on you and show off the color of your nails to perfection.

Gareth Pugh chose Grey for Spring 2010 at Paris Fashion Week


Gareth Pugh, young British designer famous for his extreme, cyber-gothic, all-black, collections, made it a grey day at Paris Fashion Week. He created a melancholic vision in every shade of grey from smoke to pewter. Pugh mixed menswear and womens-wear in his show. His men’s clothes were significantly more restrictive than women’s. Models were dressed in such a way that it was almost difficult to identify them.

His first outfit, a trench belted, over a floating chiffon dress, in tone-on-tone shades of gray, set the mood for show. Models were done with a shaded face makeup as though they’d walked through an ash cloud, with grey head wraps. They marched to mournful sound of strings and drumbeats, a Matthew Stone soundtrack that featured a stentorian interpretation of the theme from Requiem for a Dream.


The girls’ dresses were, literally, slashed to ribbons, in in zippered trench-coats and two-tone shades of grey silk chiffon, skin-tight leather tailoring, and high, wedge-soled boots laced up with satin ties. Skin-tight, knitted dresses were, similarly, paneled in contrasting shades, or featured tiers of fine pleating. Overall the effect was a kind of moon-glow lightness, rather than alien articulation his clothes once relied on. The show drew an impressive front row, including Rihanna, Terence Koh, Michael Stipe, Daphne Guinness, and Adrian Grenierfrom from Entourage

DSquared2 combined Camp with Ramp for Spring 2010 at MFW

The spring/summer 2010 collections previewed on runway at Milan Fashion Week’s last day spoke of happy colors, easy styles, and lots of sensuality. And best example for this is the DSquared2 campsite.

The curtain parted at Dsquared2 to reveal a woodsy scene, completed with pair of tents lit by chandeliers and mirrors propped against the trees. Camp is always an element at Dan and Dean Caten’s shows, but for Spring, twins took the camping theme quite literally.

known for their fun-loving styles, twin designers put together the perfect outfit for city-slicker camper. Distressed pair of jeans shorts, boy scout shirt decorated with badges and a baseball cap were among the basic looks. Trousers were slightly oversized in bright plasticized fabrics worn with an ‘I love camping’ sweat shirt with the Canadian maple leaf.



Cutoff shorts, tees, and jean jackets came tarted up with sky-high neon patent-leather platform booties and gray hiking socks, tweaked with plastic coverings – a better way to stay dry in wild.

The latter in collection included a cropped butterscotch leather jacket and a color-blocked parka. Collection was as usual was full of fun packed in bright colors.

Designers set hot fashion trends for Spring at Milan Fashion Week

Luisa Beccaria Spring/Summer 2010 ~
Luisa Beccaria was diversified for her spring collection. She didn’t send a string of black dresses down the runway or do anything as drastic to her parade of pastel-y party frocks. Instead, she launched a range of hand-blown Venetian glass and collaborated with Citroen on a car covered inside and out in a rose print from Spring line with a 1950’s reflection.
Fendi Spring/Summer 2010 ~
At Fendi, it was a season of wispy fabric, ivory and ecru, off-pastels, and fraying edges, with an added Parisian lingerie twist. There were couple of pairs of chamois-fine pants, and puffy, feathery collages of leather on shoulders of a tulle jacket and a cream silk high-necked play-suit and a dotted tulle shirt with a frilled triangle bra beneath. There were a lot of wood-handled bags that came with a snap-on fabric cover and shoes which were again trenched in fabric.

Cynthia Steffe Spring 2010 Collection ~ MBFW

“It’s no longer about the head-to-toe look. Today’s woman wants to take a little from here, a little from there, and make it her own,” reasoned Shaun.




Ruffles played a key role for collection, while flirty frocks with cascading lapels felt just right. There was plenty to grab like a washed cotton-linen boyfriend blazer, an airy suede utility vest, and a sexy mini bedecked in swishy pearl beads. The playful drop-waist and pastel minidresses were attractive and jackets were fantastic – especially at their price point.
