#NailedIt: Haute Nail Art Inspiration Hand-painted by Vegas Artist

Inside My Nail Art Inspiration, Painted by Vegas & Miami Nail Artists

My beauty regimen, when I have one, honestly involves very little. However, when I’m in Las Vegas, getting my nails done is a form of relaxation. As I head west, I immediately began to think about what is motivating me which often starts with my CHRISTI TASKER MIAMI collection of home decor, gifts, and fashion accessories. Or what presentations I will be making in the upcoming weeks. Or sometimes, my nail art inspiration comes from countries I will be traveling to next. Annie Pham, nail artist and salon owner, is my text when planning to head back to Sin City, aka. Las Wages. I mean Las Vegas.

Annie brings my nail art inspiration to life! As a trained artist, Annie freehands fabric patterns, logos, or anything else, my imagination can conjure up. My hands go in and out of the gel, curing light faster than greased lightning. All of the designs except for my most recent two from my local hood in Midtown Miami nail salon are the handiwork of Annie’s exceptional skills.

1. The “eye of the tiger” nail art inspiration.

Initially taken from one of the Kardashians, I asked Annie to enhance it with glitter eyes. Sometimes we go pink glitter, other times, gold glitter.

2. The playing card & NFL Atlanta Falcon nail art inspiration.

I concocted because I was in Vegas during the Superbowl. My Atlanta Falcons were playing Greenbay. Everyone was laying down their bets, and I showed my support by “betting on the Falcons” with my nails. With playing cards on every finger, starting with the two clubs and alternating hearts until reaching the five of hearts. My thumbs changed to an ace of spades on one thumb and the #ATL Falcons #DirtyBird logo on the other.

3. Thumbs Up Facebook Nail Art Inspiration.

In honor of visiting Facebook headquarters for my real job before going to Palo Alto to Facebook’s headquarters.  I asked Annie to draw the Facebook LIKE or thumbs up on my thumb so that I could thumbs up things that I liked, such as this fabulous San Francisco sushi restaurant called PABU.
