Holiday parties: are you ready? You have your dress, your shoes, your purse, your beauty products…but what about those nails? Check out some hot nail trends we found to make your fingers fancy!

Classic with a Touch of Giving

Classic red is always in fashion and so is giving back; so do it all in one step with Karma Organic Nail Polish in Hot Red ($9.99 Green Envy Eco-Boutique, Newport). Not only will your nails be dazzling, your purchase will benefit Project Ladybug’s Ladybug Fund, a charity run by Real Housewives of New Jersey star Dina Manzo. The mission of organization is to improve and enrich the lives of children with life threatening conditions as well as their families.

Gorgeous for Two Weeks

From clinking champagne, donning gloves, wrapping gifts and hanging ornaments, your nails get tired and faded quickly. No time for a weekly mani? Then head over to Facing Thayer in Providence for a Shellac manicure, guaranteed to last two weeks. The UV light treatment has zero dry time so you’re out the door and looking fab in less than an hour!

Bold and Bright

Butter London launched its Holiday Collection, full of delicious colors ripe for the holiday season. Try British Racing Green for a whimiscal change or go with a timeless Cream Tea, a light creamy white that looks good with everything. See them all and more at New Leaf Hair Studio in Bristol.

Glam It Up

To celebrate the film Burlesque, OPI has created an entire nail color collection filled with glitz, glamour and gusto. Layer on Show It and Glow It, a sparkly purple or Take the Stage, an iridescent orange. Sleigh on down to Strands in Providence to try them all.
