the "it" nailcolor this winter is:
GRAY.
I first heard of this from aforementioned impressively on-trend little sister about a month ago.
and I was not impressed.
Gray? the color of slouchy tees and leather accessories? on my fingers?
K (sister) went for it, and it looks pretty cool on her fingertippies.
also on gwenyth p, not to mention.
But here's the thing, I am very picky about nailcolor. A couple years ago, I enacted a policy for myself based on the age-old predicament: too many colors. too few fingers. For every season, I buy one nail color. barring unforeseen circumstances, I devote myself to that color until the seasons change. it is a heavy decision, and quite a process- the search for The Chosen One. but it helps me keep track of myself, enacts consistency, and looking through my bag of nailcolors turns into a photoalbum of memories, kind of.
and if you like the idea of gray nails, by all means, you have my blessing.
BUT I couldn't take the plunge with gray this fall/winter. I had to go for something more up my alley. And wihtout further adoo, ladies and gentlemen, may I present my fall 09 color of choice:
