Help me decide how to do my nails!

Hi all!

Christmas party Friday, and I am staying this dress, dark green velvet, with black herringbone fishnet tights and ankle boots

joanieclothing.com/thursday-crochet-collar-velvet-dress-green.html

I'm doing my nails tomorrow, and these are my two options:

  1. classic bright red
  2. dark base (navy, but almost black) with a red glitter topcoat.

Which is best?? I fear pillar box red with a green dress is too much and I'll look like an elf...

I might start red lipstick (ruby woo) but I'm undecided and might keep it neutral.

Thoughts??

I'm minimal on makeup etc generally.

Urgh.

Staying = wearing

Start = wear

I'd go for a very dark red or berry colour but out of your two I'd go for the second choice.

Second one sounds lovely

Thanks all!

I'll look forward to doing them tomorrow evening.

I never normally wear bright lipstick so I'm nervous of that aspect. Also whether to just rock in at 8am with a bold red lip or go pop it on at 3pm before the meal... either seems weird!
