“All that glitters is not gold.” …Said me never.

Is it ever too early to bring on the seasonal glitz and glam? My affinity for all things colourful means I rarely get black-and-white monochrome nails, especially not halfway through summer. But marble? With gold flecks? Sign me up, please.

It helps to have jelly nail polish on hand for marble nails to get that sheer wash of colour with texture sans tons of layers. Especially for black and darker colours, it saved us so much time.

I also wanted some geometric elements, so we deliberately made the angled French tip asymmetric, adding negative space for visual interest. We also rimmed the black marble nails with a solid polish to make the edges pop.

A black and gold nail set would not be complete without my gold vermeil pieces from Diamanti Per Tutti. This is my most worn ring combination throughout the colder season. They’re both gorgeous on their own, but I dig the edgy, cool-girl aesthetic when wearing them together.
