Nailed It: Fall Runway Manicure Inspiration

By -
We've been obsessed with nails lately. Now that fall has all but officially arrived, grab some inspiration from the fall runways for fashionable and fun fingers and toes.

Alexander McQueen featured silver and black in different arrangements on each nail.
3.1 Philip Lim used a dark sapphire color in a half circle shape at the base of the nail over a dusty taupe on the rest of the nail. (We featured a black and white version this summer).
Jason Wu made over the French manicure with burgundy nails and gold tips. Monique Lhuillier also took on this classic manicure with just a thin line of color on the tips.
D&G used vivid colored polish to mimic the near-neon shades of their fall line.
Rodarte, Giles and Gucci played matchmaker by using the same shade on lips and nails. What colors and styles are you loving for fall manicures?

It's $118 at Macy's and perfect for spring. Now if I could find an inexpensive version of that show's teacup heels... Runway image: style.com .

Spring 2009 Couture

Jean Paul Gaultier's runway promoted one of my favorite fashion looks: pinstripes with a delicate, feminine print. He had high-waisted pants, suspenders, lingerie elements, lace, sheer fabrics, softly geometric designs, and monochrome dominated, much to my glee. His menswear-inspired looks are a testament to how graceful the style can be. Christian Lacroix also paid homage to menswear with pieces inspired by matadors and soldiers. The complete collection wasn't cohesive, but even the breaks from theme were lovely. It's hard to argue with so many colors, ruffles and embroidery. Plus, I want that polka dot coat!
