Striped Manicures

Manicures don't always last as long as we would like them to, so Kiwibox and Daily Candy have come up with a solution.

Halloween is a time for crazy things: crazy costumes, crazy makeup so why not some crazy nail polish. Be a rebel this holiday and stray from the monotonous black, orange and blue polishes and do something off the wall. A French manicure. You don't have to be a naughty French Maid to pull off this new take on the classic white stripe, instead of the ho-hum neat look, jazz up your appendages with some colorful diagonal stripes.

Ask your manicurist to coat your nails with clear nail polish on short nails, and then ask her to paint two slim, parallel, diagonal stripes in the color of your choice and if you are feeling sassy get two different colored stripes.

Besides being totally original, this new and improved manicure lasts much longer than a regular boring manicure and with less possibility for chipping. So when every other girl is sporting the traditional black, blue and orange finger nails with pumpkin decals, you can flash your French stripes and be uber stylish.
