Top 5 Summer Nail Polishes!

I love going all out with nail polish in the summer with neons, brights, and just all out crazy colors! Here are my top 5 colors that I'm planning on rocking this summer!


Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear in "Pacific Blue". Just recently have I started wearing blues and this one is to die for! Such a gorgeous ocean blue. Super opaque, I only need one coat, although I recommend two just to add more of a pop. 
And one of the best things about this nail polish? It's only around $2.99 depending where you go! 
So loving this color, especially for summer!








China Glaze "Flip Flop Fantasy". Wow. This color is amazing. I gotta say, China Glaze makes some of the BEST neons. This color is beautiful. A creamy, opaque, coral-pink neon. This is very different than the typical neon pink (Orly Passion Fruit or China Glaze Pool Party). This is much lighter and more of a coral tone. This color is so neon I feel like it would glow in the dark. It makes me so happy to look down at my nails when I wear this! 
One word: OBSESSED. 








OPI "Gargantuan Green Grape". I have to say, this is a color I truly never get sick of. A beautiful, light, pistachio green color. It's slightly unexpected, which I love about this color. It's not a harsh green, or a neon green. But still a fun color to rock in the summer. I get more use out of this color than I had expected to. I expected it to be so crazy that I had to plan my outfits accordingly. It's actually surprisingly not that insane looking on the nails, which I love about it. 






OPI "Red Lights Ahead...Where"from the OPI Holland collection. Red nails are a classic, any season. But I love the brightness of this particular red! It's the definition of a cherry red. In the winter I stick to darker reds and more classic reds. This red is perfect for summer because it's so bright! 
Of course their are many dupes for this color. Nicole by OPI "Kourt is red-y for a pedi" and Sephora by OPI "High Maintenance". 










Sinful Colors "Dream On". This color is awesome! A friend actually recommended this to me, and told me the best part about it. It's $1.99! For real. This is a bright, almost neon purple color with red undertones. So fun and pretty, especially if you have more color to your skin. I'm totally addicted to this color, it's amazing. 
And for the price, how could you go wrong?
