Nailed It: Hot Hunger Games Catching Fire Manicure

Have you seen The Hunger Games: Catching Fire yet? More importantly, if you haven't: Do you have your outfit planned? Chances are the theater won't let you sit in a seat with pea green painted skin a la Octavia. And who wants to commit to Effie's pink mound of teased hair? That's got to be heavy.

Here's some easy Hunger Games nail art you can do that shows your District 12 spirit but won't make you look like a Capitol freak on the way to the theater. This ombre glitter design is a more abstract interpretation of "The Girl on Fire" dress.

OK, I know. In the book it says Katniss has tiny flames on her nails when she goes into the arena. But you know what nails with flames really look like? A Harley-Davidson decal. It's a bit tacky for me, and I'm not spending money on nail art tools that look like kebab skewers. Also, I do not have time to devote hours marbling flames on my nails and I bet you don't either.

Click through the photos below to create your own Girl on Fire nails. Pair it with a signature Katniss braid and a mockingjay necklace and you've got a subtle, sophisticated fan girl look.
