summer nails.

Just like clothing, I prefer to rotate nail polishes according to the seasons and summer calls for a few of my favorite hues.  Bright, bold shades of pink are a constant (I really like pink), but there a few new colors I want to try this summer.  Oranges, corals, and nudes are on the top of my list.  How about yours?

Have you ever just stood in front of a rack of nail polishes comparing the nuances between two (barely!) different shades of pink?  Yeah, that’s me.  There are just way too many delicious options when it comes to nail polish and the choices for fall are no exception.  But instead of the usual goth black lacquer (somehow calling it “midnight” makes it trés chic), I rounded up some gorgeous jewel-toned polish for something refreshingly unexpected.
