For Woman’s Day, Lena Lenina – a person who knows everything about nails – made up a dozen highly fashionable options.
The pea print appeared in the XNUMXth century in France. The most widespread and booming “peas” – the middle of the XX century. The girls went crazy for prints with confetti décor, which made them more feminine, naive and romantic. Along with the beloved dresses and accessories in polka dots, fashion came to the “pea” manicure – women of fashion began to decorate their nails with designs in a dot of different diameters.
At the beginning of its appearance, polka dot manicure was valued exclusively in two colors: a monochromatic base of a manicure and mini-circles on the nails. Today, the range of shades is much wider – pea manicure can be performed in three or more colors. We asked Lena herself, the owner of the Lena Lenina Manicure Studios network, to tell us about the new trends in polka-dot manicure.
The most common and one of the most spectacular types of polka dot manicure is black and white. This design is suitable even for the office, because black and white tones are ideal for a business setting.
The multi-colored polka-dot manicure, which is fashionable in the upcoming spring season, is again taking the leading position. Cheerful and multi-colored manicure has long supplanted boring monochromatic colors. The pea print will diversify any suit, even boring one, and will add a bright accent to your everyday style. If you want to be remembered and stand out, add color or change the shape. The pea print is perfect for any situation in life. For example, for a date, you can choose a pale pink color combined with turquoise. Such a combination will help to complement the romantic look, and it is pleasant to give a hand with such a manicure.
A black little dress is a sure-fire option for everyone, but at the same time, it is also too frequent a choice. The ideal option for such a dress would be a black manicure with multi-colored polka dots. In this combination, a bright manicure will be appropriate, and you do not risk passing for a too extravagant person.
Rainbow prints will not only set you apart from the crowd, but will also cheer you up on a cloudy weekday. While the usual play with flowers is already bored, and the colors in the palette have not increased, you can update the style without harming your wallet again with the help of polka dots, simply by adding a few specks on a white base. Experiments with shape and size are also welcome – distribute the colors randomly, and now you have a new manicure bow in your arsenal.
Within just two colors, you can create different polka dot manicure options. Black and white or white and black – the difference is small, but palpable. Such a simple technique will make people around you admire your creativity.
Or make one nail a mirror image of all the others.
The classic solid color choices are also perfect for any manicure variation. Turn on your imagination – and go! For example, the total style, which is current this year, goes well with multi-colored polka dots. Do not forget about creativity, feel free to add a strip, frame polka dots, creating your own unique image.
Polka dots can be both a small detail and the basis of a manicure. Filling the entire space with a rainbow mesh, you can not only stand out, but also please yourself with a creative process that does not require special knowledge and skills.
Classic black and white peas go well with almost any color. This rule applies not only to combining wardrobe, but also to manicure. So, for example, taking one color as a basis, polka dots can become a bright accent if applied in a certain sequence.
Polka dot manicure is also suitable for lovers of matte shades. If you are one of them, but at the same time you cannot take your eyes off the glossy options, feel free to combine everything into one print. It will be possible to achieve a successful combination even by choosing a varnish of the same color. So, for example, matte black varnish combined with glossy will be a discreet, but very noticeable accent that completes your look. Remember that a polka dot manicure is noticeable on its own and draws attention to the hands very much, so it is important to make sure that the skin of the hands and the nails themselves are in perfect condition!
