How to jazz up your work outfits!

Following on from my recent posts about bright yellow ( here and here ) I am also really into bright orange. I have been wearing this Rimmel orange nail varnish for the first half of this week. I was wearing it in work to brighten up my office outfits and it really did the trick. I think that nail varnish is a fab way to brighten up the usual office outfits and I plan on getting some pastel shades for the same reason.

You must use a base coat when you use bright shades of nail varnish, especially with this Rimmel range.  I tend to put two coats on and then apply the bright colour before applying a top coat. This orange lasted on my nails from Sunday till Tuesday evening when I finally removed it and left my nails for 24 hours without nail varnish so they could breathe. I try to let my nails have a day to breathe each week because it can’t be good having nail varnish on all the time, though I don’t think my nails look very pretty without varnish.

Does anyone know how to make nails stronger? Once my nails start to finally grow long they break.

Tip: If you run out of nail varnish and it’s too late to nip to the shop (even in this 24 hour world we live in) then use hairspray!
