Look festive even if you can’t make it to Carnaval this year with Mattese Elite

Can’t make it to Carnaval this year? Me either. But you can look as if you just spent a fun-filled week in Rio de Janeiro with Mattese Elite’s Carnaval collection. Combine it with a (preferably fake) tan, some bright bangles, and you’ll have the perfect spring look.

I love, love, love bright colors on my nails. I’m not a pink or nude kind of girl at all. So when these types of collections come out, I get very excited about them. You can mix and match these, do a bright accent nail, or even fun stripes or dots. The collection includes the following:

• Renha: a regal pink
• Fantasias: mysterious purple
• Desfiles de Samba: parade-worthy green
• Sambo Enreda: purple-pink
• Passistas: electric violet
• Rei Momo: hot pink

Mattese Elite is available only at RickysNYC.com.
