Get in festive mood with witty talons dressed as snowmen, holly leaves and Christmas trees

NAIL art is one of those things that you need to take seriously.

I know this because I’ve tried it a few times, and although I fancy myself to have a bit of an artistic side, I was rubbish at it. With nail art you need a steady hand — and patience. I have neither.

But amping up your nails is a hot look right now — you can go all out with tiny glittery stones, draw fabulous dot, stripes and decorations or, as it’s Christmas, fancy things up with snowmen, Christmas puddings, Christmas trees or holly... depending how creative you’re feeling. And you’ll be in good company.
