Spring is on its way and bright nails are getting back into fashion! Inspired by Miss Lindsey's video on her favorite spring nail polishes, I've decided to share with you guys my favorite brights for this spring. If you know me well, you know that I have a very neutral clothing color palette (for the majority of the time), so having a fun color on my nails is a way for me to add a nice pop. Bright fingertips is an easy way to incorporate some creativity and originality to any look.
01. Olé Caliente by Essie- a gorgeous red-hot pink! It's a lovely watermelon kind of color, definitely not too pink, yet not terribly red. I love this for my toes during the spring, it looks really nice with any peep-toe shoe.
02. Macbeth by Butter London- I've talked about this nail polish before, and no matter how hard I try to venture out to other parts of the land of hot pink, I still will always retreat back to it in the spring season. Not only do I adore it's name (I'm a Shakespearian at heart, after all), I think it's a great addition to any nail collection. It's a bloody (pun intended) deep pink that will really enhance that sun-kissed spring break skin (or airbrush tan for us New Yorkers who didn't travel). It's a lovely color that really suits any type of girl at any age.
03. Jaffa by Butter London- Looking for a rad neon orange to sport this spring? Jaffa is your color. It's a really pretty bright orange with some red undertone. Jaffa would do wonders paired with gold accessories for any spring occasion.
04. Tart Deco by Essie- A vibrant peach with pink and yellow undertones. This is one of my absolute favorites in the springtime. It screams sheer elegance and is the most vibrant peach nail polish I've ever laid my eyes on.
05. Need Sunglasses? by OPI- Normally, I would not even go near a yellow polish unless its a super bright neon. I received this one in a gift bag from a fashion show back during September NYFW, and at first, I was super intimidated by the color, but tried it out nevertheless. And... I loved it! It was a total step outside of my comfort zone in the best kind of way. This is a beautiful sunny yellow that basically just reminds me of sunflowers and the excitement of summer. Although seemingly just for "summer," I like this color for spring because I think it's totally unexpected. This is a super fun shade and I recommend jumping out of your comfort zone to try this one out.
06. Turquoise & Caicos by Essie- This is one of my go-to polishes (and has been for a few years now) for spring. A crowd favorite, Turquoise & Caicos is a perfect deep mint that compliments any skin tone. Its not too blue or green, and not quite as icey as Essie's Mint Candy Apple or Revlon's Minted in comparison to some other mint polishes. It's kind of a nicer, cleaner, turquoise with some more blue in it's undertone.
07. Suzi Says Feng Shui by OPI- A sweet ocean blue with some green undertone. I love this as a spring blue, for it's a little deeper and different than other blue polishes. This color is both fun and sophisticated, and I love it's versatility.
08. Butler Please by Essie- Perhaps my one of my favorite nail polishes of all time, this is a gorgeous neony-blue with purple undertone. It's so eye catching and adds so much spark to any outfit, I've literally never worn this color without getting a compliment or question regarding my nails. This is the perfect bright royal blue and I love it like crazy.
09. Lilacism by Essie- A light lavender! If you're a pastel-lover, you will most definitely want to get your hands on this one. It's a beautiful pale purple with pink and blue undertones. Nice and soft, but still vibrant.
Swatches
Happy Spring!
