Hey Beauties!

Summer is in full swing here in Indiana and that means it's time for a trend report! I asked our Instagram followers what their favorite shades of nail polish were to wear during the summer. While I received many different responses, at the top of the list were:

1. Neons & Bright Shades

It's no surprise neons are at the top of the list! To be honest, they are some of my favorite shades to wear for summer too, just check out the recommendations I made for our mention in Indianapolis Monthly! (You can also read the blog post.) There's just something about a bright, bold shade that screams summer fun. My top pick has to be 'Glowstick', but you can check out our other neon shades here.

2. Oranges

I was slightly surprised by this pick, because I tend to think of oranges being worn more in the fall because of Halloween, pumpkins and pumpkin spice related things. When I think about oranges, I think about the rusty, dusty oranges like fall leaves. But oranges can make great summer shades too, especially bright or loud oranges. I'm personally a fan of 'Heatwave In Havana', a juicy tangerine orange from our Poolside Collection.

3. Pinks

I find pink shades to be timeless. I think they are fitting for spring as they often emulate flower shades, but really a good pink to perfect year round. Sticking with our bold summer shade theme, my pink pick is 'Oh Là Là-guna' from our Pink Lagoon collection. What's fun about this shade is it's pretty magenta color mixed with a shifting shimmer of pink, orange and gold. It's always reminded me of those big pink Hawaiian Hibiscus flowers, like a little luau for your nails!
