Nail Polish Colour Matching

rainee SG

Alright, need a bit of help here...I am going to a wedding dinner this Sat so tomorrow going for manicure/pedicure. I am going to be wearing a dark blue cheongsam top with flowery background (flowers are stitched using white thread) and a long black skirt. Question is, what colour should I paint my nails with tomorrow?

The top looks something like this...though the neckline is different. But it is this shade of blue.

simple ones like french manicure will do. add some flowers or diamond studs on it will be nice.

nowadays french mani is not just pink/beige with white tips
can have other color combis too
be creative!!!
i did light purple base with dark purple tips before
and also dark blue base with red tips
dark purple base with light pink tips

dun have to be so conventional

Yea, I just browsed around and saw some really nice ones.

For example:

maybe I can do something like this:

But instead of pinkish tips I will change it to bluish tip...

This is nice. Or if you dont want the flowers in the nail, can always do a blue with white tip french manicure.
