I cannot lie, I enjoy neon. Back in the early noughties, I LIVED for my Italian leather neon pink stilettos which lie, beaten and unwearable in my closet. When raving, a nod to the cyber trend without the flammable/fecking awful connotations was easily accomplished with the addition of a few packs of neon rubber bangles and a couple of clip in hair extensions. Now, neon is back, the catwalk made it cool and freed it from the the domain of a few burnt out old ravers and cybergoths. I love clashing colours, so here is my take on neon nails with the obligatory leopard twist. Its easy, and looks so realistic! (that last bit is a lie) Have fun, post your version as a comment or link to your blog. Its awful quiet round here
