I bought the Sept issue of ELLE, yes, that one with LL on the cover
I hate to admit, I am quite intrigued by her, and she photographs so well on mag covers! I will def buy a mag if she is on the cover.
Anyway, one of the make-up trends featured is this Reverse french manicure featured on the Tracy Reese runway. So feeling rather curious as to how it looks in real life, I tried it out.
I thought it looks kind of weird, not liking it. What do you think??

It's definitely something different, but not my style at all. Don't like it.
1I love a reverse French ... but not with black and white as the colors. It looks a lot better with paler colors or even a red.
2I kind of like it.
3I dunno - I kind of like it. With the right outfit, I think it could really look good.
4I think it looks spooky.
5not feeling it.
6I kind of like it. You did a great job on yours.
7not for me

Don't worry 'bout a ting!
I couldn't paint the other hand properly cos of the weirdo crescent shaped white base, so eventually I cleaned off everything. I think this is strictly a runway look.
9I'm not sure about this...for me anyway but you did great painting your own nails!!!!!
10i love the shape and length of your nails, retail!
11No I do not like it at least not with the black and white. Try a different color and post the pics and see what reaction you get.
Are you nails real? Mine are and it took me a long time to grow them (I use to be a nail biter) and now it aggravates me when everyone wants to know if they are fake. NOoooo they are my nails.
12i love reverse french but I stick to traditional colors or earth tones.... the black and white is def runway only!!!
mominator - how did you stop biting??? I wish I could stop!!!
13Wow-nice job with your nails. It is definitely not a look I would try, but it isn't bad.
14I am so bad- I'm biting my nails as I read this-ugghh!
Like the idea- but I think the more dramatic the colors, the shorter the nails should be.
My personal opinion is that nails should be shorter and brighter or longer and paler.

15I actually kind of like it. And I HATE nail art most of the time. I don't think I'd wear it, but it's kind of edgy. Very nice.
16baltimoregal - i agree with your opinion on nail length vs color.
mominator - yes, my nails are real and natural, They are in pretty bad shape cos I just soaked off the fake extensions last week, so it is actually very scratched and thin.... anyways, I just cut all my nails real short last night, so everything starts from new.
17that looks so stupid!
18frightening.
19You did a great job...but not for me. I tend to go bare nails anyway!
20I think it would look nicer on shorter nails, but you did a great job
21Nope. Don't like it.
You did a nice job. But unless you plan on taking after Morticia I say stick with the regular french manicure.
22Maybe good for Halloween, it's definately different. I think it might look better with paler colors like a peach with the white but who knows.
23It's interesting.
24leaving your moons white is a VERY old trend. Many old glam hollywood stars always lef their moons exposed.
25I think I'd like it more if the colors were 1 shade off from each other, so it's not so stark.
26I like it. I'm gonna try it with different colors.
27Yikes. Although for certain outfits for certain events I think it could work. But definitely not as an everyday thing.
28Like the reverse I think you just have toooooooo much black going on there. try for just on the tips. I've even seen it with paler colors.
29love it!!! i mean yes it is completely different but it is more artsy if you look at it from that perspective you might grow to like it....
30Not for me.
31its kinda cute in a funky way
32It's very cute! I'll definitely have to try it out :]
33miss matilda stole my thought.. it is a old trend. i think it looks sharp
34I agree. Try paler colors and see how it looks. I don't like the black and white.
