LITTLE GEMS
Nail polish so dazzling, it doesn't need a trend. PS: Also eco friendly.
Nail polish tribes can be as fickle as their clothing counterparts:
Lately, black fingernails have gone from conjuring images of The Craft to the Chanel runway… and now on the Lohan fam; classic red fingertips are just as much Martha Stewart as Dita von Teese.
If you’re looking for a nail color that’s bold, but not evocative of a tabloid subject, consider checking out the new jewel-tone lacquers from Nicole by Opi. They come in rich berry and emerald shades that won't conjure thoughts of anyone's style-- other than your own-- and their proceeds go dozens of different charities.
How's that for a message you want your handshake to send?
