Are accent nails still in?

I painted my nails a tangerine color, and my ring fingers are a comparably bright pink. I like it and think it's fun -- but are accent nails even still in? I don't see many people wearing them.

Re: Are accent nails still in?

  • I'm not sure if they are in or not, but I still rock them.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I have only seen this on Pinterest and fashion blogs, but never in real life.  I like it, but don't think I could get away with it because of my job.  Since I still see it in blogs and elsewhere online, I suppose it is "in."  
  • I've seen ladies rocking the accent nails all over Chicago, so I guess its still in! I haven't done it myself yet though...
  • Thanks everyone! I like it - just don't see many people in them IRL.

     Weird - I'm in Chicago, too, and I never see it. May be diff neighborhoods or something :)

    Hmm perhaps! I spend most of my time in the Loop for school/work or on the North side around LP and Lakeview.

    Aw my H loves Chicago. He interned in north barrington one summer while he was in college. He celebrated his 21st birthday in Chicago. 

     

    And yes I think they are in :) 

  • I love doing something subtle on my left ring finger. If I'm going pink nails I'll do a pink glitter coat on that finger. I think it's cute and for sure still in!
  • I've only ever seen it online. Personally, I think it looks weird. 
    A big old middle finger to you, stupid Nest.
  • I always have accent nails. I usually do my ring fingers. I'll either do a glitter or a SH Salon Effects decal or, more recently now that I have the kit, a Konad stamp pattern. I love mixing it up with accent nails. I don't see it very often but when people notice mine I get lots of compliments. If you like the idea, go for it. It's only nail polish.
    Visit The Nest!
  • I've seen people with them recently, even though it's not my style.
