Here at Fashionista, we’re always up for a little DIY. And with the biggest sport (and advertising) event of the year’s kickoff happening in just a few short hours, we thought we’d first take a little quiet time to ourselves/fingers and invest in some ridiculous yet totally appropriate Giants vs. Patriots nail art! Our ‘artistic’ process was a bit on the trial and error-side of things, but the end results are certainly conversation starters. I mean, even we were a little bit impressed with our new-found mani-talents.

Click through our step-by-step guide to getting some super Super Bowl nails, and feel free to be inspired to steal some ideas in support of your fave team. At the very least, your sporty new polish job should effectively distract anyone else who’s going after the same chicken wing as you. And you’ll have something interesting to look at when you wash off the hot sauce later tonight! Game on.
