New Nail Shape + Old Favorite

After seeing a post by the Polish Hoarder in which she rounded her nails down because of a chip, I decided I liked how her nice short, ROUND nails looked! Of course, I had to try it for myself, but this is WAY out of character for me... I've always had very square-edged nails and never really appreciated rounded tips. Funnily enough, it IS very flattering.

So here are my new rounded nails with an old favorite of mine: OPI You Don't Know Jacques. This is such a wonderful fall/winter color, and it was the perfect glossy creme to test out my new nails!


Because the rounded shape isn't very apparent in this picture, here's one that shows it a little better.


How do you shape your nails? Do you stick to one shape or change it up often?

    Squared nails look fab on you but I like mine much more rounded. Agree that YDKJ is a staple in any nail polish collection. =)

    This polish is amazing on you! I try to keep my nails square but with rounded corners - squoval I guess?

    Oh my, what a gorgeous nail shape. I'd like mine really square, but the edges curve inwards when they get to a certain length. I have to squovalise (lol) to combat this.

    Ash, I have the exact same problem where the corners kinda "curl" in, and I hate it! So I like to keep them shorter and with a little roundness (probably considered "squoval", like you said :o)
