Red & Green Nails ~ A Simple Christmas Manicure



Grew tired of the glitter stripes & went with a simple red & green for Christmas. #nails #manicure


I loved my festive glitter striped nails for about two days. Then, I have to admit, it was just too much for me. So I scaled down to a much simpler, yet still festive Christmas manicure of red and green. I really wasn't going to post about them but had a few questions via my Instagram shot {above} so I thought you may want to know the details as well.

Here are the colors I used: {I love OPI}

Nothing better than a simply red and green mani for Christmas though! I like how you didn't do every finger alternating, look cute this way :)

xo, alison*elle

I have the same colors on my nails right now only I did every other nail and did OPI Little Red Wagon instead. I know originally I didn't like the Jade is the New Black but it has definitely grown on me and has become one of my top 10 polishes!!!

I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!!!!

How do you keep your cuticles looking so nice?! Is it just lotion or do you follow some regimen? Please do tell!
