Here's a closer look at China Glaze's nail polish collection, Colours of the Capitol, which lands in stores at the beginning of March.

A Manicure Suited For a Black-Tie Affair

Here's an excerpt of a post by OnSugar blog beautopia on getting a black-tie manicure: I took another page out of Wah-Nails's book and did a tuxedo this week.

How to Make a Cool Abstract Manicure

We spotted this artsy manicure on OnSugar blog Random Ramblings. Check out the colors she used and what inspired her to do it: China Glaze Light As Air ($3) for the base and black polish for the design, taken without any topcoat.

As far as Fall nail polish trends are concerned, I foresee lots of hot pinks, mushroom tones, smoky metallics, burnt oranges, deep, intense greens, and the return of purple — but with a little less smoke and a little more attitude.

For Audrey: China Glaze's Hepburn-Honoring Polish

It's been 46 years since Audrey Hepburn enchanted audiences in Breakfast at Tiffany's, but her influence as Holly Golightly is still strong. Case in point: China Glaze's new "For Audrey" nail polish ($6.50), which bears a striking resemblance to Tiffany Blue.
