DIY: Get Celebrity-Style Minx Nails At Home

Minx Nails are the latest trend in celebrity nails.

The process: The manicurist takes a sticker, heats it under a lamp, then applies it to your nail. Then, using a nail file and scissors, they get off the excess sticker. It’s mess-free and eco-friendly. However, the session can take up to 45 minutes, and manicures can begin at a minimum of $55.

Luckily for you, OPI collaborated with Minx and developed a kit that dresses up your hands and feet in style without having to make an appointment—and the best part—it will only set you back $15.

The application process is as simple as it is chic: rub the strips between your fingers, peel, apply, and trim.

OPI’s Chic Prints for Nails Design Appliques come in Anchor, Black & Gold Geometric, Checkers, Chrome Lace, Fishnet, Skulls, Stars, and Tiger designs.

Effortless summer chic

One of the things I’ll eternally envy about fashionisers of the fairer sex is that during the Summer months remaining fashionable can seem so effortless. The right Summer dress and the look can be perfect. As we have below. A cream and white dress from PHI (far more toned down than Tania’s PHI investment) paired with tan man-style wingtips and hair casually placed in a pony-tail all converge to concede that Summer is often better spent on the beach than in a city.

How to Rock a Smoky Eye for Summer

For many women, last winter’s smoky eye look may be difficult to give up.

But fashion is currently fascinated by everything naked, nude, and pale. The popular runway looks, such as delicate underwear as outerwear, frothy cupcake colored fairytale frocks, and the modern minimalist mood requires lighter make-up.

Designers are also opting to use paler-skinned models in their shows. Popular inspirational figures such as Anne Hathaway and Olivia Palermo also favor the fair-skinned look, signaling a move towards more natural and luminous skin tones.

After being inspired by Julianne Moore’s character in Tom Ford’s A Single Man, it’s evident that the sixties pale-faced, doe-eyed look is great transition from smudgy smoky eyes.

This look also brings out the best on fairer skins. Swapping brown or purple eye shadows for this season’s favorite beauty shades of violets and lilacs is a modern way to revitalize this classic retro look.

Starting with the eyes, Chanel has a perfect eye shadow quartet called Vanite, which includes a white for the lower lid, and a vibrant violet for the crease line. Use the pink and beige shades with the violet to mix up a color to best suit your complexion and eyes. Define the crease with MAC’s Bordeauxline pencil, and finish the eyes with mascara.

Famous & feathered

Proving feathers can still work for Fall, Famous magazine’s Sadaf was spotted at Australian Fashion Week (RAFW) wearing this ensemble. The feather detail along the shoulders is just subtle enough, and the pocketed skirt works beautifully. Vanessa Jackman was behind the lens.

Vintage inspiration: Bardot

I don’t think I need to explain why Brigitte Bardot is today’s vintage inspiration; or any day’s, for that matter.

Look Sexier in an Instant

Undo a Button

It doesn’t get any easier than this simple move: Loosen up a button-down just enough to reveal a delicate collarbone, like Elle MacPherson, or draw even more attention to your decolletage by wearing a statement necklace like Eva Mendes.

Throw on a Leather Jacket

Of late, the leather jacket has graduated from rebellious extra to wardrobe essential, but it still looks sassy when paired leg-baring separates. Choose a streamlined style similar to Beyonce’s blazer if you want to rock the jacket with a pretty mini or opt for Blake Lively’s sporty, motorcycle cut if you love the look with shorts.
