I don’t know about you, but my nails at the end of February are absolutely atrocious, which is fine because they’re hidden in my pockets trying to escape the cold. However, with spring break approaching right around the corner, it’s time to trade out that harsh, chipped black nail polish for a color more appropriate for the sunny weather. Here are 5 of my go-to nail colors this spring season!

This gorgeous red-orange burst of color will liven up any cold hands. It’s not too red, not too orange: perfect for making a statement!
2. Bikini so Teeny by Essie

Welcome to my personal favorite nail polish color! I’ve put this on my fingers and toes, and I’d put it on my face if I could. It’s the perfect vacation color, and it’s sparkly without being too obnoxious.
3. Suzi-San Climbs Fuji-San by OPI
This color comes from OPI’s Tokyo collection, which is extra-awesome if you’re traveling a distance for spring break! It’s a cool, different color, without being too typically-teal.
4. Machu Peach-u by OPI
For the people that aren’t really in the mood for a bright color, Machu Peach-u is a simple, subtle pink that will still make a statement without being too in your face. It’s appropriately named from OPI’s Peru collection, making it just that much more exotic.
5. Amazing Grace by Deborah Lippmann
I feel like I can’t name vacation nail colors without including a pearly white. Deborah Lippmann is an amazing brand with great color pigmentation, and this white will blind people up and down any beach, sidewalk, or mountain.
While having freshly-painted nails is always a bonus, make sure you’re not using harsh chemicals that will ruin your fingers. And, finally, don’t forget to moisturize those hands! That winter chill can take its toll on your skin, so make sure you’re constantly hydrating your grips.
