it was logo-mania at alexander wang this spring. i’m half-surprised that the nails weren’t emblazoned with the logo as well. i loved some of the boyish cuts of clothing, the laid-back styling, but there were a few pieces that, well, you just know forever 21 is going to have in the store by the end of the month (e.g. the parental advisory jumper et al).

the nails were similar to fall’s nails, except a simpler version. last season’s nails, done by cnd, featured a nude matte look with visible brush strokes to create interest. this season’s nails, done by essie, featured their nude classic, sand tropez, topped with their matte about you top coat.
