I don’t believe in beauty rules or blindly following trends. Skip the primer! Wear eyeshadow that doesn’t match your undertones! Put powders over creams! Zendaya shares my sentiment. Out shopping in west London on Sunday, July 21, she disregarded summer nail trends, skipping a jelly Orange Julius moment and farmers market nails in favor of a deep maroon manicure.
A rich jewel tone is typically a winter hue. It’s warm and cozy, while offering a sophisticated feel. But Zendaya—the trend-maker she is—brought her maroon manicure into the mid-July summer heat along with a cropped tank top and a fresh blonde dye job. She even matched a refreshing drink to her crimson fingertips. I might even be more into this color-coordinated moment than I am into her embrace of the mesh flats trend. (That’s saying something.)
