Which Nail Colour?

I need advice – I’m wearing a black dress, with coloured accents (General bright colours, there’s yellow, blue, maybe pink and green etc) and was wondering what colour nails I should go for? Was thinking French nails, but that’s out of the question (too long, and I don’t have time to make an appointment). So I might paint them and then play it up with some diamontes etc?
Would love to hear your thoughts and advice.

    i think bright pink because the lightness of the gems would pop out of this colour. i`m not sure where you would find these, especially good quality ones but maybe try a craft shop like spotlight, i don`t know.. i`m probably too lat but i guess it`s advice for anyone else

    A red is always classic. Either a dark maroon or bright one. Black would look good too, or even a silver/pearl one?

    something like silver, pearl, or something to match one of the colours of your dress eg, pink ?

    Thanks everyone, I ended up buying Natio`s Fizz, a lovely pale pink. I put on the colour on maybe the 5th, or the 6th, and the colour only started to chip 2 days ago, I was amazed at how long it lasted. I even got asked if I`d had them professionally done, or if they were fake, because of the smoothness. Definitely one of the best nail polishes I`ve tried.
    Thanks for your advice, I really appreciate it!

    u can try clear artifical nails, coz they stand out, and also look very glamorous, also black would loo very nice, or a subtle beige, or cream color, i have white nail polish and i find it goes with everything

    Ok billywig good idea, neutral pearly colours and pastels are really in at the moment! Um i am not sure where to get the little diamontes and gems, but i a sure priceline would have some. Maybe go in and ask them if you have time before your event ? x

    Thanks guys, I`ll have a look tomorrow for some nice colours.
    Style Queen – thanks for the tip! I`ll keep that in mind for next time, but I might stick with a pearly, neutral colour like you both suggested – just because I`ll be pressed for time, and knowing me I`ll muck them up anyway ;).
    Do you know where I can get little nail gems etc? Would Priceline have them?
    thanks!! :]

    i am thinking a nice pearl colour too, perhaps a pearly pink or subtle gloss. sometimes a simple clear gloss coating with a diamonte can look really nice and not overstated. French nails don`t have to be done at home though billywig, im sure you know there are kits you can buy yourself the are really easy and can look great. Just but a kit and get someone to help, not that you need t much maybe with your bad hand. Kmart, priceline, big w- pretty much everywhere sells little manicare kits.
