Winter Nail Polish

   We all know that colors are seasonal: you wouldn't wear the same colors on New Years as you would on Memorial Day Weekend.  So I've picked out a few fall nail polish colors to go along with seasonal trends.

1.  Au Natural
This shimmery, neutral color is my favorite!  It's not exactly new (I got it in my Christmas stocking last year), but it goes great with this winter's trends that feature neutrals and camel shades.  Image found here.

2. Wicked
Note: this is not black.  It is a deep, deep slightly-purplish red.  When I paint my nails, I typically use two coats, and this came out between a deep red and brown.  It's perfect with gold or other shiny holiday fabrics, and to go with rich, saturated winter colors.  Image found here.

3.  Power Clutch
Essie's website describes this as "gray-green", but it really comes out much more gray than green.  Below is a photo that demonstrates this (sorry for the poor quality; bad lighting in the living room).  It's a great neutral, dark but not too dark, you know?  Image found here.

What are you wearing on your nails this winter?
