| manis for spring |

i love a manicured nail- the thought of a chipped nail stresses me out.  i use to be a loyal gel polish kind of girl (insert CND 'just red' /  or Gelish 'you're so sweet you're giving me a toothache') but as of lately I've felt like I was missing out on the fun spring polishes...but not so left out that I was willing to commit to a two week mani in an outrageous color.  if you are willing to commit to the at home regiment there is something so nice about being able to swap out your polish every few days.  I'm currently sporting a natural growth  clear coat which doesn't thrill me and is so boring but my nails are still recovering from the land of gel.  I'm typically a red or light pink girl but stepping out of the box I love love love deporah lippman's (#2 below) "flowers in her hair" for spring- it's so fun and happy!  Also, I didn't include any of Essie's spring collection but basically I want the whole spring line: it's ridiculous- of course my favorite color in the collection is style hunter; a fun red.

TAKING A RISK..

I'm usually very "programed" when it comes to the colors I wear on my nails & toes; I typically stick with Lollipop [ also a favorite of Olivia Palermo ], Ballet Slippers, or Wicked (in the Winter only) all by Essie.  For my birthday I like to wear Happy Birthday by Deborah Lippmann.  Lately, I've been stepping out of the box; right now I'm wearing a completely obnoxious florescent orange on my nails and a Mint color of my toes.  Afraid to take a risk?  Use this guide to help you and your nails step out of the box for the Summer season:

-For the girl who loves classic red-

-For the girl who loves a soft pink-

PS- Don't forget, if you hate it, you're just a cotton swab & some acetone
away to going back to what makes you comfortable.
