Ever since Sophie Turner wore glossy lilac nail polish to her wedding last June, we've been considering "something purple" the manicure of choice for Hollywood brides. Paramount among these would be Hailey Baldwin (now Bieber), who wore a sparkling lavender manicure to her bachelorette party last fall, and since then, the tonal trend is everywhere for spring 2020.

The high-gloss pastel purple is a great choice this time of year — in the transition between winter and spring, when you're bored of browns and reds and looking to encourage spring without going too light with pink or white. Ahead, find the best lavender polishes to stock up on now ahead of wedding season, or just for your average Friday-night DIY mani.
