Nautical Nails

Nautical Nails

How delectable are these ultra-soft brights from Essie? The samples just came in and they are causing quite the furore in the office, let me tell you. Manicure maven, Essie Weingarten, was inspired by the colourful, easy-breezy, chiffon clothes that we love to wear on holidays. So whether you want to go Naughty Nautical (the blue-green teal), Full Steam Ahead (the pretty lilac), or Rock The Boat (the light, pastel blue), there’s a tone to make you feel summery.

Or you could always get the full six and go the for the rainbow! They’re arriving to Boots store and salons in July.

@elliebalfe is currently wearing a different shade on each nail.
