Spring Is Here and With It Comes….COLOR!!


If you’re like me, you feel differently around mid-March/beginning of April – everything smells different – fresh, alive, renewed. And with that, comes my renewed sense of wanting new stuff to go with my enhanced mood! So what to do this year? Well, you can do a variety of things to spruce up your wardrobe or your look in general. One of the easiest (and cheapest) ways to upgrade your look for a season is different colored nail polish.

Luckily for all of us, one of the biggest trends this year is colorful nail polishes. OPI and Essie are two of my fav brands because of their wide variety of colors and the quality of the polishes. And both brands just so happen to be coming out with a variety of lines this Spring. I have yet to try (any new colors) but I keep seeing so many stylish women and celebs sporting this fashion and it makes all the difference in adding a splash of color to their wardrobe. Here are three of the biggest color trends I see for this season:

Neons – don’t ask me why this 80’s trend is coming back, but it is and in a big way. BUT, if you don’t want to invest in a piece of clothing for this passing fad, I say take it to the nails (not the mattresses :).

Tangerine – between nail polishes, blushes and lipsticks, this is the big color trend for 2012. And given that you can wear it in a variety of shades you can play it up or down in whatever works best for you.

Pastels – lavenders & seafoam greens seem to be making a big splash on the scene this year. And just in time for Easter and Spring! Loving Essie’s and OPI’s color palettes for these – I’d say check out OPI’s Go On  (pictured below) and Essie’s Nice Is Nice or Playdate



Let me know if you have some other suggestions for colors/nail polishes that you love! (Oh, and I promise it won’t be so long before my next post again!!)
