Having beautiful, trendy nails has always been a priority for me. I can’t tell you how many thousands of screenshots I have on my phone of nails that I found on the internet. I am so obsessed! I am the girl that sits down in the chair at the nail salon and asks for the most difficult & expensive nails, and also the ones that take the longest to do! When it comes to my nails, basic isn’t an option. If you’re constantly searching for nail inspiration, then keep reading. I found lots of beautiful nails for you to show your nail tech next time you’re in the salon!

I have followed Salina Néou on Instagram for quite some time! I am a huge fan of her work. I sent her an email one day to see if I could use her photos for this blog and she sent back the SWEETEST email ever. I was beyond excited to have her permission to show off her beautiful work on my blog! She is amazing and I highly recommend you guys go check her out on Instagram. Her username is @_linadoll If you love nails then you must give her a follow and tell her that I sent you 🙂

Chrome Nails by Salina Néou

Chrome nails are a major trend. I think we will be seeing this fabulous trend for a while! One of my favorites are the rose gold chrome nails. I have an obsession with the color rose gold. It is so gorgeous any time of the year! Adding rose gold and chrome together is what dreams are made of.
