 When Katy Perry TwitPic’d her nails late night on Saturday, I knew Celebrity Manicurist Kimmie Kyees had to be the brains behind this look. Sure enough, I check my inbox to find that Kimmie had done Katy’s nails for the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards.
For Katy’s nails, Kimmie created custom tips using Milani Hi-Res from the 3D Holographic collection. She randomly placed square, round and heart shaped nail gems in a rainbow of colors for a fun and funky look. One look at Katy’s dress and you can see how the stones played into the overall look. You can never accuse Katy of being afraid to “go there” with her look. |
What do you think of Katy’s nails? Would you ever wear this in real life? Where?
I wasn’t quite sure why True Blood star Deborah Ann Woll was at the Oscars but I couldn’t help but get excited over her grayed purple nails. It complimented her gown well though I’m not sure it worked with her hair and lip color. It’s almost like we’re seeing two different looks from the head up and head down.
Get the look with Color Club Uptown Girl from the Rebel Debutante collection or OPI Parlez-Vous OPI?.
What do you think of Deborah’s look? What nail color would you have chosen for her? Does anyone know why she was at the Oscars? Did she present? Is she married/dating/related to a nominee?
I read some comments referring to Amanda Seyfried‘s Armani Prive Oscar gown resembling bubble wrap but I loved it. She always looks beautiful on the red carpet even if her style choices skew a little older sometimes. I mean, that’s a LOT of dress. I can only imagine how much it weighs.
Regardless of how you feel about her dress you’ve got to give her props for wearing a mushroom-y taupe like Chanel Particuliere, one of spring’s hottest nail shades. Makeup Artist Monika Blunder used Chanel products to create Amanda’s makeup look so I can only assume that she wore Particuliere on her nails.
Get the look for less with Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Commander In Chic and butter London Fash Pack.
What do you think of Amanda’s look for the Oscars? What nail color would you have chosen for her?

Happy Friday Fanatics! I know things have been a bit quite here on ALU but it’s been a crazeballs week for me. Thanks for your emails to check in on me! You are all so sweet! Since I’m getting ready for my trip to NYC for New York Fashion Week I’ve been running errands and doing a lot of behind the scenes type work this week. Plus, my nails were looking pretty beat so a little nail R&R was in order.
However, I’ve received quite a few emails and tweets about Rihanna’s nails at the Grammys. Someone wondered if she was wearing some crazy CalGel design, traditional nail art or Minx. Those of you who guessed Minx were dead on the money (no pun intended) and thanks to the people at Minx and Celebrity Manicurists like Kimmie Kyees, I’ve got the scoop! Rihanna, Beyonce and Keri Hilson all rocked Minx on the Grammy red carpet, check out the detailed pics after the jump!

 Big Love “sister wives” Ginnifer Goodwin and Jeanne Tripplehorn braved the rain-soaked Golden Globes carpet together looking, quite frankly, like a mother-daughter duo. Jeanne’s matronly dress does no justice to her beauty though she does score points in the nail department for donning a chic, browned-grey nail.
As mentioned on E!’s Live From The Red Carpet, the co-stars spent their pre-show time together as well, with pampering manis & pedis at Recess Organic Nail Spa in LA accompanied by Ginnifer’s mom. Get the full scoop on their nail polish choices and see my color swatches after the jump! |
