Pointy nails - love or loath them?

 I have to do a short post on my love for pointy/stiletto nails.  For a while now I had been thinking of changing my square tip acrylic nails for 'pointy' nails - Much loved by Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Lana Del Ray and many more celebs,  after looking on Instagram and Pinterest at endless colours and designs I decided to take the plunge and get myself some claws!!!
 
My new nails <3 In OPI 'Sweet Heart' - this shade is the perfect pinky/nude.
 
 
And I love them ♥ I prefer the shape much more to squares and I personally think they look more elegant, they also suit my hand shape (I have long thin fingers and the nail suits the shape of my hands - or so the nail technician said)
I don't find any difficulties in wearing them, typing on a keyboard was slightly hard to get used to but I don't struggle, and I find using a touch screen phone is fine.
I know they are in fashion at the moment and perhaps soon they wont be on trend, but I am loving them and will continue to keep the pointy nails while I have acrylics on!
What's your opinion on pointy nails? Do you Love or Loath them?

Here are some of my favourite colours and designs I have seen on Pinterest, maybe they'll inspire you...

Below are Nude coloured nails which are probably my favourites - So wearable and easy for day to day wear! Love them all 
 
 

 Below are some slightly bolder colours, but I love them also - the red is gorgeous, the black  I know isn't everyones cup of tea but I love it (Especially for Autumn) and the white looks really simple and classy.

First Post! Nude nails



I have had a set of acryllic nails on for a while now and after wearing a gorgeous colour by OPI called 'Kiss Me I'm Brazilian' (a bright hot
pink) I fancied a change, something less stand out, after visiting the opi website (which is amazing by the way! A great way to browse their collection before you buy! Take a look below:)

I selected the shade 'Sweet Heart'... when it arrived I immediately tried it on my acrylic nails and loved it! Such a perfect mix of nude and baby pink, a beautiful summer shade. Definitely a gorgeous colour for any girls nail varnish collection! Perfect for summer.

Love,
