Nail Polish Summer School: To bling or not to bling

Filed under: Accessories, Cosmetics, Fashion, Beauty, Makeup





A little visual jazz on your fingers and toes can go a long way toward driving away the blues and beating the doldrums. It's cheaper than doing drugs, and also not illegal. And it can be such a creative outlet! From glitterly gold stickers to 3-D ceramic flowers you can even get a photo transfered on to your nails!

We recommend avoiding something like the screw in handcuff nail dangle pictured here (just $14.99!) if you have a court date. On the other hand, if you're feeling a little stuck in a rut this brightness at your fingertips is sure to cheer you up.

Where do you rate on the bling continuum?


Of course we understand that some people are more conservative than we are. And that's fine. They can enjoy their shell pink, short square nails as long as they respect our right to bling out three-inch long fakies, all the way to the very edge of acceptable taste.

What about you? Do you dare to wear the crazy nail jewels? Or are you squeaky clean?
