            One fabric that would elaborate on your nails would be silk. It’s full of soul yet its fancy enough for everyday wear. It can be used in the most unique times or evenings as well but nail polish is the icing on the cake for outfits even though it can be the smallest feature of your outer body.

            With fabric such as silk you can elaborate a lot on your nails.

1. Using a shimmer attracts the lighting to your nails at all times. Wearing silk only amplifies this significant feature. Say you have a painted silk shawl that is wrapped with a poppy flower. You can see the soft pinks, luscious creams and even exotic yellows of the pollen. Wearing a shimmery yellow would spunk up your outfit being that the yellow is barely seen within the flower the shimmer will pick up the color greatly.
2. Gloss is even and steady for the hand. It catches the colors within you outfit and allows you to go bold with the color without it catching as much light as the shimmer.
3. Glitter is spunky and completes a fresh feel for your outfit. This has an automatic shimmer and with dark color such as blues and reds the color will be fierce but won’t take away from the painted silk. The wizard of oz collection within the china glaze is a great selection of glitters.  
4. When polishing try to only do three even strokes making sure there is no drip but just enough polish on the brush. Start with a stroke within the middle of your nail then go to each either side. Don’t worry if your brush can’t catch the whole nail within the nail as you repeat the process with each coat the nail will be completely covered.
