Back in the Victorian era, lovers often exchanged locks of hair as keepsakes. Here, CND lead nail artist Heather Reynosa took inspiration from the tradition, braiding together fine locks of hair atop a base of CND Vinylux Long Wear Nail Polish, $10.50, in the shades Studio White and Vintage, topping it all off with a caviar bead frame.

The monogrammed signet is particularly cool, as is the gold skeleton peeking out.

We spy the aforementioned hair- and rose-themed nail art, along with a sort of snakeskin/tiger print hybrid, pearls, another monogrammed signet and a whole lot of gold accents.
