Lose the Vampy Shade: Meet Spring's Hottest Polishes to Date
-
Oscar's Blue
As seen at Oscar de la Renta's Fall 2103 runway, this pale blue hue captures the designer's love for the rare blue gemstone Larimar as well as this season's robin egg blue obsession. What you will love? Its opaque formula gives this hue a striking finish after just one coat.
-
The New Nude
Nude's got a whole new look this season and it's anything but boring. This barely-there lacquer features eye-catching shimmer, a combination that is delicate but still plenty fun. What you will love? How fresh this hue feels after a season of brooding dark hues.

The Second Nude
And because nudes promise to be one of, if not the, biggest nail trend this spring, we just had to include a second shade. Not only is this delicate hue from Deborah Lippman's latest collection perfectly appropriate for every occasion, it's also a standout shade that is modern and sophisticated. What you will love? How flattering this hue looks on all skin tones.
-
The Fun Red
More fun than your basic red, this poppy-bright, red-orange hue looks super flattering on, especially on sun-kissed skin. Rock this bold hue with short nails for a combination that feels young and spring ready. What you will love? This pretty polish looks gorgeous when paired with spring's black and white graphic combos.
-
Fit for a Queen
Fit for a royal, this deep turquoise hue from Yves Saint Laurent's latest collection is a great transition from fall's darker emerald color. What you will love? How this color goes on super-shiny sans any tacky glitter.
-
Fifty Shades of Lavender
Forget last season's ubiquitous gray, this spring it's all about lavender—at least when it comes to the hottest nail color trends. From pinkish-lilacs to subdued amethysts, there is a pretty purple waiting for you to try like this rich lavender color that is equal parts pretty and bold. What you will love? That this romantic hue bests any shade of pink when it comes to competing for a standout finish.
-
The Runway Shade
Spotted at some of the most fashion-forward runway shows including Rag & Bone and Marc by Marc Jacobs, white-out style nails prove fierce and anything but wimpy. Unlike your typical bridal white, this season's shade is bold, opaque and super edgy—borderline alternative. Great for the summer season, this stark color will pop, even more so on sun-kissed skin. What you will love? This bold shade is a great way of incorporating an of-the-moment trend into your daily style without breaking the bank.
