Olympians are nailing it

Did you catch a glimpse of Australia’s Emily Seebohm’s nails when she picked up her silver medal for the Women’s 100m Backstroke?

Her patriotic nail art is the trend sweeping the London games and the Aussies arent the only ones nailing it in their national colours.

Thanks to celebrity manicurist Sophy Robson and her ‘Nail Porn’ team, a pop nail salon is available at the Olympic Village for athletes and visitors to the games.

The temporary nail salon, which is open in Stratford, has up to 18 manicurists on hand and more than 200 different designs to choose from.
