Q: What are the nail art trends for the season? This season, olive greens and slate blues continue to dominate the fall palette. For the adventurous, studded and stoned manicures as well as textured finishes are a fun way to amp up your nail game. Q: Should brides keep it subtle or go all out on their nail art for D-day and why? I think a bride should stay true to her style, and do what makes her happy.

I want something more like a cosy tropical look, like floral decorations and a little hint of the rich heritage, culture, and architectural magnificence. A blend of enamour and grandeur that adorns the special occasion, making it a day to remember. Q: What kind of clothes, accessories, and jewellery should the bride and groom don? Beautiful garments in lively pastel tones on soft floral prints with…
