Perfumed polish? It's one of those things that sound wacky until you try it. Dior’s new Garden Party set gives you the urge to play through the woods while sniffing your nails. It is made of two colors/scents, a rich and sultry lilac color right on trend for spring, and a pale green that resembles that of yachting in the Mediterranean. On top of the beauty of the shade, you get wonderful aroma. You can get them for $23 at dior.com. They're limited edition so get them while you can.
If you're budget-conscious, you can get Revlon’s Scented Perfume Nail Enamel in Mad About Mango for $4.79 at drugstore.com. Nail colors this spring include tangerine and candy-colored hues inspired by the Prada and Louis Vuitton runways. Pair them with colored denim and a bold floral top for a standout effect. Nail art trends are still in- you can even try five different shades of the same color family by starting with the darkest shade on your thumb. You can even go natural this spring with pastels and nude nails. Fake nails are in, especially with patterns.
Nude Nails are a hit of this season and have been around for several seasons. They have been spotted at several fashion shows including Derek Lam, Giorgio Armani, and 3.1 Phillip Lim. The best way to pull off the nude nail trend is to look for the nail polish that is closest to your skin tone but remember to consider the undertones.
Bright Colors can be worn in red, pink, green, fuchsia, and orange. You can match them with your lipstick or clothes to become an eye catchy accent in a neutral-based look.
Patterns & Nail Art include various patterns, stripes and checkers. Clear tip nails with white lace pattern at Joy Cioci look particularly unusual. Ombre and pierced nails have been seen on runways.
The Metallic & Glitter trend includes metallic polishes, minx nails, and even the option of rhinestones. Make this trend your own with the variety of styles. There were also moon, and navy instead of black are also in. With so much to choose from, you can get very creative this spring. Which trend will you choose this season?
