Is any belle out there as obsessed with nail polish as I am? I firmly believe that you are never completely dressed without polish on your fingernails. Since my teen years I can count on one hand how many times I have left the house without polished nails.

From a very young age, I knew I loved my nails. My mom always joked that I got my nail bed from my dad’s side. My sweet poor momma has terrible nails. I quickly knew exactly what she meant. I grew to love my nails. Obsess over them even. I have never been a biter or picker. I am lover and a polisher and a manicurist. I grow my collection of hues as one would collect pressed pennies or antique spoons. While I partially blame my grandmother for instilling such a devotion to cosmetics I must admit that I certainly keep the devotion alive.

One thing that I think is often overlooked in the beauty planning process is a bridal nail look. Your nails will be in pictures ladies so be sure you choose a color that you love. Although I chose a very simple and classic hue for my own bridal nails, I can totally appreciate more adventurous brides who opt for bright tones and glitter. I would also personally highly recommend gel polish. It stays on your nails like none other and I don’t know about you but I certainly didn’t want chips on my wedding day.

To help get some creative juices flowing I have created a Pintrest board to help you style your look.
