Nudist Colony

We know, we know: Nude nail polish as a trend is not exactly earth-shattering news. It's been around since what feels like the dawn of time (or at least the dawn of nail polish), but what strikes us as unique this season is the way it's being used. As nail art fatigue starts to settle in, many nail artists turned to simpler nude and earthy hues for nails, throwing in some fun metallic finishes for added interest. The array of tans, browns, and cocoas hitting shelves this month is mind-boggling.
