Street Style Manicures at London Fashion Week Spring 2012

Whilst mulling around backstage with some of the UK's most notorious nail gurus like Sophy Robson and Marion Newman, you start to pay closer attention to people's fingertips. It got my eyes wandering a bit on the streets of London, and I was really surprised to see so much nail art out there on so many women — other than just the models! I consider myself racy for applying an out-of-the-box shade like green, blue, or purple metallic, but some people have really taken a liking to multiple colours, rhinestones, glitter, and designs on their digits. Take a peek at 12 manicures that really impressed me.
