CND nails by Heather Reynosa Davis graced the model’s hands at Binetti s 2013 with a double stacked, pearl in oyster effect.
The runway effect stood out in a sea of nail fashions,
…while the “real (world) way leaves us clammering for more.
Which version is your pick? To thine own self be true.

I never understand when I see the name “Christian Siriano” preceded by “Project Runway” headlining. Virtually out of the gate, Siriano came into his own as a designer and presented the world with stunning eye candy and the closest confection to bridal wear that walked the runways at Fashion Week. Maybe Project Runway is afraid of the world forgetting they discovered this gift.
For s 2013, Siriano doesn’t step out of his box so much as change the wrapping a bit. Fanciful ball gowns give way to a trio of tea lengths, peplum replaces plumage, and shouldered cutouts that appear to be customized for FLOTUS floated down the runway this time. Siriano claims his inspiration was the ballet, but this version is one all women can dance. He continues the trademark romantic layerings and small details that give this 1940ish collection sighability.
Of course, the Siriano Shoe Collection at Payless is a show stopper every season, and Siriano debuts metallics, multiple bows and flats. There is usually bit of a gap between the runway vs production shoe, so we’ll see what actually represents in stores. However, spring is looking good.
CND idealized the sweet with shimmery Pink Grapefruit nails, a new color coming to their line in s 2013.

Nina Garcia calls this look (her photo below) at DKNY “natural beauty” and “pristine” – do you think they are missing out having fun with the trends? We’ll always have beige.
I always like a twisty take on FNO, and new Swiss boutique Osswald shared beauty and parfumerie secrets by flying Francis Kurkdjian to New York for Fashion’s Night Out. Editors and FNO guests were treated to autographed bottles of his unique scents, all while quaffing prosecco. Beautiful space!
