She's often clad in grey-blue palace clothes that reflect her 'sacred maiden' status.

 

Nail colours should be white, grey and blue, with a tinge of gold/silver for that extra sparkle!

She is regal and gentle, the very picture of grace. She is often clad in earthy tones like browns and beige, to reflect her personality, which is soft like the moonlight. Of course this is not without the lovely embroidered gold and pearly silk flowers on her garb. Your nails should reflect the same colours and designs as well!

The Story of Yanxi Palace has been hailed for promoting soft diplomacy

 

She is the female servant who is often clad in soft pinks and browns to reflect her youthful nature. Nails colours, should combine soft browns and pinks, interspersed with a little white. Perfect for the kawaii girl look!

Erqing slowly turns bad in the show. She is often seen wearing a black plush shawl, so a black nail colour suits her dark, dark side. Great for all our bad ass girls out there!

She's one of the heroine's biggest backstabbing enemies in the show. (Read: Conniving Biatch) Interestingly enough, the pair are foils to each other and both are dressed in blue/grey colours. (in varying shades)

 

 

Are you inspired yet? Even if period dramas aren't your sort of thing, at least you could take one or two tips from these great designs!
