Hey guys!
Ok, a I'm sure most you will have seen, in January royals singer Lorde performed at the Grammys and caused a bit of a stir because of her less then perfected nail art.
It was all over facebook and twitter and tumblr for weeks afterwards and although I have to agree I thought her nails were really strange looking and I couldn't place why they looked familiar. But then I realised, they're frost bitten nails.
For those of you who have never seen or heard of frost bitten nails, the idea behind it is to make your fingertips resemble that of someone with frost bite using black nail polish around the nail about an inch in to the skin and originates from a gothic/grunge culture.
Personally, I quite like them. They're stress-less because you won't have to worry about cleaning up after you're manicure ;) and it's different! I think given the right person and the right context (a grunge fanfic at a party/ gig as opposed to an office worker on the day to day) they work really well.
