Fashion Week–or month if you count Paris, Milan and London–is finally over. Phew. Now, it's time for the final recaps. We asked CND Nails, responsible for painting the paws at over a dozen shows, to give us the goods on lacquer looks come spring. Our slide show has the hits straight from the spring/summer 2009 runways, along with the inspirations behind them.
