Carnaval in Brazil is hands-down one of the most vibrant and exciting festivals in the world. Not only is it filled with tons of samba dancing, celebrating and, of course, food, expect to see a ton of beautiful people getting their Carnaval on! The festivities have me wanting to doll myself up in bright tropical hues like corals, pinks and yellows. But since walking around in a colorful feathered headdress and bejeweled thong isn't exactly an option for me, I think I'm going to go Carnaval crazy on my nails instead!

I'm not going to lie, I'm totally using Carnaval as an excuse to amp up my nail game. The crazy polar vortex has put a damper on my mood lately and it totally reflects on my boring, nude nails.

Vibrant swirls
Tell me you don't LOVE this cool and colorful nail design? The shades are actually from OPI's new Brazil collection. So if you can't replicate this look at least try the coral polish in OPI Toucan Do It If You Try ($9). It's SO pretty!
Tropical nails
When I look at this mani, all I can think of is cool beaches, wild rainforests and tropical fruits.
Beads & feathers
The colorful beads on this manicure totally remind me of the feathered headdress the chicas wear during Carnival. How cute is this?
