When it comes to nails, many of us are creatures of habit. Every two weeks, I head to my appointment where my manicurist, knowing the drill, asks: “Your usual micro French?” This week, though, I’m about to surprise her by switching things up. Inspired by stars like Sienna Spiro and Cynthia Erivo, I’m trying “horizontal” French tips.@nailsbymeiNot to be confused with the “deep” French tip, which is similarly chunky and ’90s-inspired but traces a subtle curve, horizontal French tips are painted straight across the nail for a sharper, more graphic finish. New York-based nail artist Mei Kawajiri, aka Nails by Mei, took to Instagram this week to share her latest work on singer Sienna Spiro: a set of horizontal gold chrome French tips, further enhanced with gems at the base of each nail. Nail artist Lizzy Trow (@_citre on Instagram) has been creating plenty of these looks for clients recently, and believes the go-big-or-go-home manicure is trending because it gives the classic French a bold, retro spin. “It’s such an interesting take on the classic French manicure because of how the line goes straight across rather than following the nail curve,” says Trow.

No V12 Required: Argentina's Mid-Engine Supercar Packs An American V8 Punch - CarBuzz

Classic gems, tasteful customs, legendary supercars - for Silvian, they're all fair game. He's been in love with cars and motorcycles for as long as he can remember, so it made perfect sense to eventually turn that passion into a full-time writing career. Around six years and more than 3,000 articles later, he is still going strong and doesn't plan on hitting the brakes anytime soon. Argentina is a country known for its natural beauty, soccer legends, and chainsaw-wielding president, but it probably isn’t the first place you’d expect a rad V8 supercar to be developed. However, that assumption might change once you learn about a company called Valtor, the brainchild of engineer-turned-CEO Sergio Arias. He leads a small but ambitious team of designers and engineers like himself, who’d previously caught people’s attention with the Azor GT concept last year. Now they’re back at it once again with the Eaglon, an evolution of the Azor and something that could easily be mistaken for a Ferrari by those who don’t know their automotive lore.
