Nail varnish is for all seasons, but rarely does it pop as much as spring. You can combine the melancholy greys of winter with the summery ebullience of a hot pink and you've got yourself a mani that all the cashiers are going to be complimenting you on when you're handing over your debit card. Or, you could embrace spring and its unpredictable weather, adopting soft pastel blues and chalky yellows to match the blooms of bluebells and daffodils that always take you by surprise when out walking off all those creme eggs over the Easter weekend.
Unlike hairstyles or chunky belts, manicures never go out of style. Nail trends may come and go, but a classic varnish is here to stay. But whilst we're on trends, there are some top-notch ones around right now. Don't get us wrong - some are just plain crazy. We've had succulent nails, pierced nails, and even edible nails. But when you dial it back just a tiny bit, you get some really great styles like negative space nail art and let's be honest, you can't go wrong with just a regular slick of Chanel's Noir Rouge if you feel like trying something a little more dressed down.
