Nails at Fashion Week

Lots of folks have been sending me pics (which is awesome since I'm obviously too damn busy to post anything lately, let alone search for images) of cool nails at fashion week.

Love this color combo an Binetto--more on the clothes than the nails. Would have been cool with some white in them.

I've always loved white nails--and this shape is pretty much flawless. I remember I had white toe nails in high school and this boy made fun of me because he said I used white-out.

These are lace nails at Tracy Reese--honestly not terribly impressive. I have done nails with real lace before, and it's hard to pull off. I've been saving up images to do a lace/nail post soon-- (I'm kind of obsessed with lace so I can't just put any old post up. But for the record, I had lace nails at my wedding in "Summer 07"

Gold nails at Babyphat. Not sure if they're Minx, but the application looked pretty shotty.

I love this pic for a few reasons. First off the nails are pretty cool--especially the blue marble looking one at the bottom. Second, the shape is pretty awesome.

But the real reason is when I first started doing Event Nails I would sit with a box top on my lap--and stretch duct tape across the box, and lay nails down and paint/glue on them. I even went the Erykah Badu video with all these nails taped JUST LIKE THIS to a box, and felt so bootleg.

Apparently that's the industry standard!

I also had no idea so many of the nails at Fashion Week we glued on--like my Event Nails. Strangely, my biggest joy/goal isn't working with models or celebrities--more with "regular" chicks who just love to be daring. But it's good to know what I do is exactly what they need!

Ok these? Totally look like a few I've done.

You can't see these that well- but they're very similar.

And if these aren't Cassie knock-offs, then I'll be darned!

So basically, my shit rocks:) and I'm not dying over any innovation here. But I'm always happy to see nails displayed prominently on the scene. Thanks Fashion Week.
