Art meets beauty at ValentinaChirico’s because I strongly believe there’s no better way to learn than having fun. With this nail art, you’re going to discover an artist: Joan Mirò.

Dive into contemporary art with Joan Mirò – Spanish artist, painter and ceramist – and me, you’ll just need three nail care products and five spare minutes. I promise you’ll have fun! This nail art is inspired by Blue II (1961) and by some Mirò’s preparatory drawings for his Constellations and Collage.

My little emerald beauty treasuries
When I woke up after the New Years Eve, I felt terribly blue, so blue that I decided to pay tribute to the previous year by wearing something emerald.

Thinking about clothes and fashion, a deep green shade like emerald isn’t really easy to wear but it comes out to be anyway a style changer color.
