After seeing a ton of Essie’s bright nail polishes on J.Crew models for recent ad campaigns, the label has let loose some exciting news. The company is reportedly selling a select few of the Essie polishes in their stores! Stocking up for the fall, J. Crew is selling colors “One of Kind” and “Eternal Optimist”.

Tired of red nails? Coral nails? And that weird in between color? Well, Essie’s ‘One of a Kind’ nailpolish is the perfect blend of melon and red, with the end color looking somewhat like the outside of a blood orange. Love it!

It may be a perennial shade, but now—spring–is the optimal time to lacquer your fingers and toes with a soft, opaque infantile pink. At first I was unconvinced, but after having recently tried the color out for myself, I became fascinated with how beautifully subtle and universally flattering the hue can be. It looks stunning on just about every skin tone and registers a clean, sophisticated look. Take a much-needed break from in-your-face neons and heavy darks, and give this delicate, creamy tint a try. Best bets:

‘Wedded Bliss’ by Sally Hansen

‘Limo Scene’ by Essie

A revival of the 80’s is upon us. The burgeoning of bright jeans and sneakers has turned into something bigger. Nail companies, Essie, O.P.I and Chanel have taken note and subsequently launched their own neon nail color lines. Women have been hitting the streets clad in colorful lip and eye color.  From the catwalk to the sidewalk, women are embracing ROYBGIV.
