Bright Stripes & Hearty Sandwiches

Can't decide on just one color? Try using two or three bright shades as an accent color. For this look, Torello chose a dark electric purple for the base, then used a nail art brush to draw pink and blue stripes across the center of the nail. To make the lines as straight as possible, she suggests creating each in one quick, clean swipe — this will minimize any glopping or shakiness.

Saltie, 378 Metropolitan Avenue; 718-387-4777.
