So, You Wanna Wear Black Nail Polish!
The trend has steadily increased with more and more classic and sophisicated women adorning their fashion statement with Black Nail Polish. Since the emergence of Chanel -219, we are all able to purchase Black Nail polish from consumer buyers for as low as 99 cents a bottle: such as - Wet N"Wild-Black Creme, Opi Classsic - price ranges between $8-$12 Dollars, China Glaze Nail polish-approximately - $5.99 and Black Diamond - just to name a few.It is no doubt that sporting Black Nail Polish will make a statement - a bold one at that! However, if worn appropriately, you can send out a very unique and trendy statement about your choice of style.
A short note on the history of Black Nail Polish
Black Nail polish has not always been associated with the agenda of anti-establishment or those rebelling against a cause; in fact, it was highly associated in the past with royalty and one who had a lavish lifestyle.Â
In China, it was used as a method to determine social rankings; the common people enjoyed such shades as pink while royalty used red and black.
Black Nail Polish Length
Keep the length short - square off the tips
Due to the pronounced statement of the color - keep nails clean and filed
Feeling edgy - place one crystal on one of your fingers on the left and right hand
Apply a top coat of clear polish to maintain that glossy effect and NEVER wear the Black Nail Polish chipped
We are seeing more and more of this trend on the catwalks, fashion magazine, celebrities, as well as everyday people. Jada was just featured in the Essence Magazine for July -2010-sporting a very sophisicated look with her Black Nail Polish - she looks absolutely gorgeous! If that wasn"t a big enough motivation for me to put the magazine down and go out and purchase a bottle of Black Nail polish; other celebrities such as: Gwen Stafani, Jessica Alba, Rihanna and Lindsay Lohan are just a few to grace the fashion scene sporting their Black Nail Polish.
Advice for the Professional Woman
When wearing Black Nail Polish - you must think about the look you are trying to achieve.Â
Do not wear ALL black as this will send across the very message you are trying to avoid (anti-establishment).
Keep the jewelry wearing very simple
You must be able to have total self-confidence in order to pull off this look - it is not for the shy and inhibited.
