So my colors are red and silver. My signature looks is fire engine red nails. Does that look good in a wedding dress? Is it tacky? I don't have like those huge long weird nails that make you type from 7 inches away. just clean red nails.
"Red nails are something that are never out of style, but the bold color can be tricky for a bride to pull off. For one thing, you do not want your nails to draw attention away from your jewelry, in particular the wedding band and engagement ring. Chips will also look terrible in bright red polish, so be sure to get your manicure on the last day before your wedding. The first tip is to stay away from red nailpolish if you are accustomed to wearing pale colors in your day to day life. On the other hand, if red nails are one of your signature accessories, it would be wrong not to have them for your wedding. The one look that is really dated is long red talons with vivid orange-red nail polish. Infinitely better is a medium or short nail painted in a rich red. That effect is glamorous, rather than garish."
Definitely do it if it is your signature! It sounds cute. Red looks good next to white. I think you want to look very classic YOU on your wedding day and not change it up to much. You don't want people to be wondering "where are the red nails?" lol
