FALL SEASON STYLE: 18 classy ways to wear SHORT BLACK nails a la Victoria Beckham

Looking for some Fall nail style inspiration? Look no further, I have the perfect inspiring manicure ideas for you to wear to your Fall dinner parties. The perfect October nails, short black and chic.

Have you seen the new Beckham documentary on Netflix?

If not, I highly recommend. It took me right back to the fabulous late 90’s - early 2000’s era of fashion, in which Victoria Beckham aka Posh Spice was at the epitome of her style icon status. I remember reading her book and quickly becoming obsessed with short black manicured nails.

FAVORITE FALL TREND: SHORT BLACK NAILS

You know, there's something undeniably chic about opting for short black nails when the leaves start to fall. It's like a timeless fashion statement that never goes out of style. Those deep, dark hues are just perfect for the season.

Short black nails give you an air of sophistication and a touch of mystery that can elevate any outfit. As the weather cools down, they add that perfect touch of edginess to your look. Plus, they're incredibly versatile; you can rock them with casual jeans and cozy sweaters or dress them up for a formal event.

Short black nails are a subtle yet striking way to make a bold statement, and they pair effortlessly with the rich colors of autumn. It's a fashion choice that stands the test of time, a fall favorite I keep coming back to, year after year. 🍁💅🖤

WHY SHORT BLACK NAILS?

🖤 Bold and Timeless: Black? It never, ever goes out of style. It's the epitome of chic, an absolute symbol of fierceness, and it stands out, whether you choose short or long nails.

🖤 Practical and Stylish: Short nails? They're a no-brainer for anyone who types like a pro, plays musical instruments, or simply doesn't want the fuss of long nails. And when you coat them in black, they're not just practical; they're downright stylish.

🖤 Versatility is Key: Black, my friend, is the chameleon of nail colors. It can go from matte to glossy, from plain to strikingly patterned – it's as subtle or as dramatic as your mood or outfit demands. That's the beauty of it.

TIPS For WEARING SHORT, BLACK NAILS

Polished Perfection: When it comes to rocking a bold black, neatness is your best friend. Make sure your nails are impeccably shaped, and your cuticles are squeaky clean for that timeless, polished look.

The Finish Matters: Black nails are your canvas, and there are so many ways to express your style. Mix things up with different finishes - go for matte for a sleek, modern look, glossy for that classic shine, or add a touch of sparkle for a bit of glam.

Accessories are Everything: Elevate your black nail game by adding some bling. Think studs, gems, or even a delicate touch of gold or silver. It's the little details that take your nails from ordinary to extraordinary.

Play with Patterns: Get creative! Try out patterns like stripes, dots, or minimalist nail art to add a unique twist to your nails. Keep it simple or go bold; the choice is yours. Classic black can be the perfect backdrop for your artistic expression.

Remember, with short black nails, the possibilities are endless. Stay chic, stay classy, and make it your own! 💅🖤

MY FAVORITE POLISH:

I am obsessed with butter London polish because they are non-toxic but still glossy and long lasting.

A gorgeous manicure always looks even better when your hands are healthy, smooth, and well cared for. If you want your nails to really shine, I shared my favorite beauty habits in this guide on how to make hands look younger and keep them looking radiant.

7 things I think you will love

Happy Valentines Day my loves.

Here in Texas, it is extremely cold outside and tomorrow we’re getting a deep freeze. Everything will be shut down, it feels a little like quarantine again. Sigh.

When stuck indoors, for some reason, I suddenly realize that I need so many things off of Amazon. It’s like all of a sudden, there are certain things that I just can’t possibly go one more day without. Next thing you know, I am eagerly anticipating the things that are going to raise the vibe of my home.

One. First and foremost. I have been searching for the perfect home slipper. I want something fluffy and pink. I also need something that exposes my toes, I hate my toes being covered when I’m home. I just like them to breathe. I also love anything memory foam. So these pretty pink slippers will be here in a few days and I cannot wait.

Two. While looking up pink pancake recipes for Valentines Day, I came across this adorable pink, heart shaped non stick pan. Which is absolutely adorable and something I can use to make omelettes, frittatas or anything really. I just know Roman will love it.

Three. It is no secret that I love pink and I love gold too. So the moment I laid eyes on this set of flatware, I knew that was it. Can you imagine the pretty table settings you can create with a set of pink and gold cutlery?!

Four. If you haven’t listened to my latest podcast episode, I really encourage you to do so. I share an honest look at my perception on not sweating the small stuff. So I was inspired to grab this book ‘don’t sweat the small stuff in love’!

Five. Listen, in the last couple of weeks, I have NOT been watching what I eat. I am typically a pretty healthy eater but I have been totally slacking. As hard as it is, I know that having healthy meals ready to go is a huge help. Especially as a mom and a small business owner, am I right? Meal prepping is a MUST. And the best way to get me in the mood to meal prep is pretty pink glass containers.

Six. Every woman needs a girl cave or an office, craft room. You know, some room where she can allow her feminine energy to really shine through. Especially for those of us that are boy moms. Grab yourself the highly coveted pink velvet seashell pillow for a fraction of the cost, grab this beauty and add a feminine touch to any room in your home.

Seven. This week, I acquired some Angel Aura Rose Quartz Crystals for my jewelry shop and they sold out so fast! It reminded me how incredible and powerful crystals can be. They will truly change your life when you get into them. I swear by wearing my crystal bracelets every single day. For me, I could be in jeans and a tee but I will feel so fabulous when I have stacks of my bracelets and rings on…go check them out on loveashlina.com.
