feeling polished
>> 16 July 2010
Piggybacking on yesterday's theme of paint and color, today I am showcasing some of my fav nail colors for the summer! Painting your nails is a simple way to feel polished (no pun intended) and instantly brighten a mood. Here are some of the best colors I've seen lately:
This color is just bold enough to make a statement. It makes me feel like I'm in a jungle, actually. Sassy, summery, and looks great with bright clothes like yellow or orange.
Essie: Mint Candy Apple
This is the color currently on my nails. When I first saw it in the bottle, I figured it would be a nice, light pastel. Much to my delight, this color packs a lot of punch! Though it is light, it's pleasantly bright as well. Looks great with a little denim sundress or black and white.
This color is currently on my toes. I am in love with its neutrality combined with just a hint of purple. It looks great on any skin tone and matches with any outfit. Bonus: I have never had a polish last as long without chipping as this one! Kudos to my namesake, Sally!
Yes, in fact I do need sunglasses all summer. I had to end these selections with a punch, and this polish truly delivers. This yellow is bright and cheery, but it feels much more lemon and juicy than taxi cab. It is sure to make your day sunny.
