#1 Electric blue and purple

From Anna Sui to Monique Lhuillier, electric hues of blue and purple were the choice of the season. We love how well different shades change up a look, with medium shades being more youthful or playful and the dark richer tones exuding more glamour. A deep electric blue nail polish is highly recommended as a staple in your collection for more edgy yet glamorous manicures.

#2 Neutrals

Donned this season by brands like Christian Dior, Donna Karan, Hunter Original and Roberto Cavalli were neutrals ranging from light pinks to deeper taupe shades. We cannot emphasise enough how important it is to find a neutral that suits your skin tone! If you’ve got cool undertones, go with a pink-based neutral shade. If you have warmer undertones, a yellow-based shade works best!

#3 Metallic golds and silvers

Dennis Basso, Honor, and Naeem Khan were among those who hit it off with showy metallic golds and silvers. We love the more matte-looking metallic finishes, and like neutrals, the shade of your gold or silver nail polish should suit your skin tone. Gold for warm, silver for cool. Stay away from polishes with chunky glitter bits for this look. These gold talons are a lot more refined.
