How-to: The old Hollywood nails at Jenny Packham F/W ’12

The look:

1940s old Hollywood glamour, with matching burgundy nails and lips.

The inspiration:

“[Essie Nail Polish in] Wicked is a dynamite colour all on its own, but by adding [Essie Nail Polish in Cherry Pop, the nail look took on a vixen-like feel. [This] gave it dimension that mirrored the collection’s embellishments perfectly.”—Gina Edwards for Essie.

The how-to:

1. Apply two coats of Essie Nail Polish in Wicked.

2. Follow with one coat of Essie Nail Polish in Cherry Top, a sheer, candy-red gloss.
