Pretty & Polished

Nail polish has been around for centuries; even dating back to Cleopatras time (I hear she was big on red). Throughout the years, it has become such a big part of fashion and such a popular form of self-expression. It has become the perfect way to accent/match our outfits and showcase our personalities. This trend of fun and unique nails can be seen everywhere now, including the bridal world. Although the French Manicure is still a popular pick for weddings, we are seeing more and more brides walking down the aisle with bright, colorful, elaborate nails. Here are some cute ways to use your nails to complement your gown on your big day:
