Glitter nail polish

Nails have a fast trend cycle now, with a change in length, shape, color, or decoration happening at least once a season.  It seems like the short, rounded shape is here to stay for a while.  Color has been the main changeable factor for the past few seasons, with pale pinks giving way to classic red, then black and its variations, then metallics, and now dark blue.  I think the next thing to come up will be a change in texture, which means glitter!  The black and blue trends have included "subtle shimmer," but I think BIG flecks of shine should come in next.  Silver and gold will be good, colored glitter better, multicolored even better, and, if someone would manufacture it, glitter in small shapes (hearts, dollar signs) would be best.  I think glitter could start showing up as early as next winter and be big for spring '09.
