IT’S COMING HOME(!!)
After England’s historic win on Wednesday, it’s fair to say that the nation’s EURO fever has escalated, and the countdown is on for the final.
Whether you’re a die-hard England fan, or just in it for the frankly unparalleled atmosphere, this Sunday is sure to be a night to remember. And what better way to get in the mood for the big day – apart from beers & friends – than getting kitted out in England’s colours – if you saw Dua Lipa’s iconic red & white get up from last night, you’ll know exactly what we mean.
In honour of this, we’ve gathered some of our fave nail designs that give a nod to our England heroes- from subtle red details to all-out illustrations. And with a few days left until the final, there’s still plenty of time to book an appointment and get your digits final-ready.
In the words of Alan Shearer, they’re ‘Magnificent, Brilliant, Fantastic, Amazing’. Okay, so he may have been talking about the England squad – and rightly so – but we like to think he’d say the same about these nail designs.
