Erica of HonestlyWTF Creates a DIY Manicure Perfect for Holiday Parties

— October 16, 2014 — Fashion
Women going for a subtle party look this holiday season will love the gold striped nails. A do-it-yourself project, it was inspired by a photo spotted on jewelry designer Anna Sheffield‘s Instagram account. Although the use of a metallic color might suggest something more bold, the gold striped nails make a statement in a minimalist way.

Created by Erica of HonestlyWTF, the gold striped nails is quite easy to execute. All a person needs to get their hands on is a roll or two of nail striping tape in order to create the pattern they want in the colorway their want. In this case, Erica focused on a nude nail that allows the gold stripe to stand out against.
