spring colors

i'm obsessed with nail polish. especially solid colors. i change my nail polish about once a week. and since spring is soon to be upon us (not soon enough though), i decided to do a post on spring nail polish colors! spring colors are some of my favorites. i love mints, bright pinks, and subtle purples.
here are some of the colors i've worn for spring:
(essie, mint candy apple)
(opi, green-wich village)
i'm a sucker for good nail polish brands. i want my nail polish to look nice and stay on for a long time. i would recommend OPI, China Glaze, or Essie. Spending that $8 is worth it!! if you want to go a cheaper route that's still a good polish, l'oreal is an good alternative. here are some of my favorite spring colors!

(sephora opi-i'm wired, sephora opi-metro chic, sephora opi-dear diary, opi-excuse moi!, china glaze-re-fresh mint)
pointers:
  • if you still want to have a nice spring color, but it needs to be subtle and professional looking, try a light pink.
  • if you want to add a little excitement to your nails try painting the ring finger a different color or add some polka dots! 
  • if you're not so great at painting your own nails and want to try some new colors without buying the polish, try getting a color change at a nail salon! it's only around $7 and looks just as good as getting a full blown manicure (you just don't get those great hand massages...)
  • remember to take care of your hands and nails! wash them, lotion them up, use cuticle cream! people often notice people with nice looking nails & hands
