Can I just say how excited I am for Nars autumn/winter 2012 collection...

For the Haute Couture Fall 2012 Runway Show Karl Lagerfeld "evoked the idea of using two shades on one nail," (-Peter Philips)
This look is easy to create & so much fun, here is a step by step guide:

Step 1: Apply a base coat.

Step 2: Swipe 2-3 coats of silver nail polish(or other chrome color) on "the whole outline of the nail," says Philips.

Step 3: Next, use two coats of light pink polish to "cover both the center and the tip of the nail," says Philips.

Step 4: Finish with a quick drying top coat.
