The Daily Nail: Check Out the Nail Art from ASOS’ Music Issue

We are obsessed with anything involving nail polish and know you are, too. So we’re proud to announce a new Fashionista column, The Daily Nail, in which we will feature a bit of nail news–every single day!

Today we’re featuring the work of Sophy Robson, whose site has quickly become a must-read for us (and who first showed the world the Fall 2011 Chanel polishes a couple weeks ago). She was tagged to do the nails for ASOS‘ music issue, and her inspiration was musical nail icons–like Katy Perry, Beyonce, and Lady Gaga (note the butterfly–a McQueen tribute–on the “Gaga” nails.)

Blake Lively’s Rep Says Leaked Nude Photos are Fake; “Phew” Says Chanel

Blake Lively is at the top of her game right now: She’s dating Leonardo effing DiCaprio, set to star in summer block buster The Green Lantern, she’s a Chanel brand ambassador, and is beloved by Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour alike. What could go wrong? Leaked nude photos on the internet, that’s what.

Naked sexy iPhone photos of a blond who looks an awful lot like Blake Lively made their way around the internet lightning quick last night. (You’re totally Googling them right now, I know–it’s cool I did too). But they’re not real. Blake Lively’s rep quickly released a statement to US Weekly saying, “The photos of Blake Lively which have just surfaced on various websites including Perez Hilton and Zap2it are 100 percent fake.” Her rep continued to say that Lively would pursue legal actions against the publications that initially published the photos “and any other outlets that republish them in any manner.” So, yeah, we’re not touching them.

It’s good news for Lively’s relationship with Chanel.
