Giving Me Life – 4 Spooky Nail Trends to Try this Halloween
Halloween nails are basically wearable mini art projects, with enough options for everyone from “I acknowledge Halloween” to “I AM HALLOWEEN.”
If you think Halloween decorating is the only place you get to unleash your inner creative director, think again. Halloween nails have entered the chat. And honestly, I think we should all partake.
There is something ridiculously fun about decorating your nails for the season. It’s temporary, it’s playful, and unlike painting your entire house orange and covering every available surface with skeletons, you can remove it when November rolls around. No storage bin required. Well… except for the nail polish collection you swear you are no longer going to add to.
The Freshest Halloween Decorating Ideas
Halloween decorating has come a LONG way from a plastic skeleton hanging from the front porch and a pumpkin with a triangle nose sitting on the front steps. Don’t get me wrong—I love a good jack-o’-lantern. But if you know me, you know I’m always looking for a way to take a decorating idea and turn the volume up just a little.
Fall Floral Arrangements That Are Anything But Basic
Fall florals are having a serious moment and I’m officially obsessed. Think rich, saturated colors, unexpected combinations, gorgeous texture and arrangements that look like they were casually thrown together by a French florist who just happens to have impeccable taste.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
