Neon Invasion

It’s not enough that a slew of musicians have worked “neon” into their moniker. The scintillating hues of pinks, yellows, greens, and blues have come to 2012 in full force—and in more than an 80’s throwback kind-of-way. Check out a few ways to work the tantalizing trend into your everyday wardrobe.


Neon Nails are everywhere right now (in a good way)—and you don’t have to be in Miami to appreciate vibrant tips.

Neon Belts add that perfect pop of color to any animal print or vibrant, juxtaposing hue.

When it comes to nails, it can be difficult to keep up with what’s “in” when and how to get which look. Finish your summer off with these trendsetting looks so you too can have the perfect tips.

Glitter
It’s all about the sparkle these days. You can go full-encrusted bling if you want, or opt for subtle shimmer with a slightly sparkly top coat. Keep in mind, though, that glitter polishes are more difficult to take off, so be sure to use a base coat!

Neon
Any way,shape, or form, neon nails are trending hard this season. It’s a chic juxtaposition to neutral clothing. It’s also a surefure pick-me-up on a gloomy day. Electric pink? Yes, please.

Pastels
Summer is the perfect time to employ a soft pastel nail. Break out the mints, baby pinks, and lavenders for a feminine finish to any look.

Nude
A soothing neutral is truly timeless and ageless. This look longates your fingers and toes and makes them appear neat and polished. It’s simple and refreshing; also perfect for the office if you’re uncertain about how much color to bring to your cubicle.

Red
If you’re into a full-on color, a girl can never go wrong with a classic red polish. Like red lipstick, a red polish signifies confidence, strength, femininity, and sex appeal.
