Nail Trend: The Two-Tone Funky Manicure
Looking to spice up your regular manicures, then look no further! There is a new trend cropping up everywhere and it is the two-tone manicure. I am not really sure who, what or why this trend has popped up, but ever since I took notice of it - I see it everywhere. Fellow fashionista Whitney Port has been wearing this look for a while now and she has really helped propel it into a full on trend.
So what is a two- toned manicure you ask? It is honestly so simple, pick your two favorite color combos (purple and aqua, gold and coral, white and silver... etc), then paint your nails as usual, but skip one or two on each hand to be your "stand out" nails and paint those nails the color other than the one you already used.
Here is my first attempt at this look :)

Hair Trend: The Fishtail Braid
A not so new trend, but still going strong, especially for the summer time. When I think of summer I think of easy, relaxed, and simple, something that the fishtail braid evokes - effortless glamour. You can quickly do a loose braid for the daytime or a more cleaned up version for a night out, but regardless of how you wear it, the fishtail braid is a do!

| It has been seen on the runway :) |

| Charlie's latest angel, Minka Kelly worked the plait at a recent event! |

| Blake rocked the fishtail braid in an unusual way to the L.A. Green Lantern Premiere - and I must say I love it! |
