Holiday nails are a big commitment. They need to make a statement without stealing the show. It is, after all, my sequined dress’s big day. While Dolce & Gabbana’s Fall ‘11 star motif was a close runner up, for me, Chanel Haute Couture Fall ‘11 makes for the perfect holiday nail. This look is one of my favorites with the structure on top into the floaty bottom. Not to mention the sultry mesh veils… DIY project, anyone?
