With longer sunshine and brighter days, tis the season for a fresh start. Though neon and fluorescent hues tend to pop this time of year, mauves and dusky blues, a touch of asphalt grey, give a romantic tinge to any outfit. A fun take on neutral, these richer pastels are sure to pump up the drama with the addition of sparkles or a gel-like shine. If beige is not your style, opt for a rust orange or olive green to stand out in a crowd of mauve. Either way, there is sure to be an ideal shade for each and every nail.
