Style Thursday: Ring Nail Trend

Once upon a time, I went to beauty school. I love hair, nails, and makeup and have managed to keep up with what’s trending in the beauty world and the number one trend my trusted nail artists folk are seeing, “ring nails.” The “ring nail” manicure is basically one style of polish on all but both of your ring fingers. Typically, it’s an ornate design, overlay, pop of glitter, etc. that makes your ring fingers stand out from the rest of your mani.

Of course, like any beauty or fashion trend, the “ring nail” manicure has made it’s way in to the world of bridal. The most popular choice for brides is a french manicure with a striking bit of nail art on the ring fingers. Many brides choose to express the color palette of their wedding with their “ring nail” polish and art. Others, choose something that is close to their heart or something for that proverbial, “something blue.” If you are digging this trend, whatever your ring nail choice, have fun with it! Here are a few bits of “ring nail” mani inspiration to get your creativity flowing.

Friday’s Favorites: Glam Cakes, Budget Dresses, and lots of Sparkle

Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? Me, I plan on getting some major organizing and cleaning of my house done so that I can re-clutter it with my wedding projects. Transitioning from planning for others and planning for myself has been interesting. I’m finding it’s so much easier making decisions for others than for myself. Thankfully, my fiance is really good about voicing his opinion, so we are making decisions together.

I hope you enjoy this week’s favorites based on this past week’s posts. There is some really great offerings from Etsy shops sure to get you shopping. Have a great weekend everyone!

‘A Little Sparkle for Your Bridal Ensemble’ by ravengrrl

If you love glitter and want to include some sparkle in your bridal wear, skip it on your face as it will show up as white flecks and go for it when it comes to your shoes and nails.

Stunner Thursday: Put a little sparkle in to your ensemble…glitter!

Today’s Stunner Thursday is all about adding a bit of glitter in to your bridal ensemble. The perfect way to do it? Glitter is perfect for your shoes and your mani. It’s suggested to steer clear of glitter when it comes to your make up as it doesn’t photograph correctly. Instead of beautiful sparkles, the glitter reflects the light and shows up as tiny white spots. Who wants that all over your face? Yep, no one.

So, if you are looking to add sparkle, keep it to your shoes and nails, which won’t alter your appearance. Here are some fun shoes and manis to help you get your sparkle on the right way!

Stunner Thursday: Wedding Worthy Manis

My apologies for today’s post being so late. I’ve been dealing with connectivity issue throughout the day. On with the post!

This second installment of Stunner Thursday is one of my favorite beauty regimens…the manicure. Whether you choose traditional french, incorporate your something blue, or go for full on ombre glam, you should definitely treat yourself to a professional manicure prior to your big day. Your hands will be photographed multiple times and since you are investing a good chunk of your budget to preserving the memories of your day, investing in a manicure is definitely in order. I hope you like the ideas presented below. What color/style manicure do you plan on getting for your wedding?
