What Your Nail Polish Says About You

The colors we choose to wear can sometimes serve as
The colors we choose to wear can sometimes serve as more than just a trend. They say you are what you eat but, when it comes to style, what you wear can be an expression of who you are and how you feel. But going beyond the closet, your true colors can come through in other ways, such as your nail polish (really!). Have you ever wondered why your outgoing best friend is the queen of hot pink polish, or why your demure office mate stays away from all nail color? Find out in this fun nail color guide and see what your nail polish says about you!


Red
Red has long been associated with passion, love and power. If you love having a red-hot mani and feel your most confident when you do, then perhaps you, too, are like the color. Wearing red polish indicates that you are not afraid to take control and be in command. You are confident, self-assured and passionate about what you do and are often regarded as a go-getter and leader.
Pinks
Light pinks, such as baby pink and cotton candy, are sweet, feminine and youthful. Similarly, if these are your go-to nail color shades, you have an innocent personality and love to see the positive side of things. While you may come off shy, your child-like inquisitiveness keeps you on the forefront of a friendly conversation.
Bold pinks, such as hot pink and fuchsia, are a little more like their red counterparts, although not as aggressive. You are feminine, outgoing and never shy away from being the center of attention. You love being a girl and proudly show it with your feminine and coquettish style.
Blues & Greens
You’re a free spirit and comfortable with yourself. You aren’t afraid to be unique, although you don’t necessarily make the conscious effort to stand out above the rest. At first hand, you may come off as aloof, but only because you like to remain unobtrusive, although you genuinely enjoy a good conversation. You are also closely in tune with and have a great appreciation for nature, music and the arts.
Black
Black has long been associated with all that is serious and the macabre, but when it comes to nail color, it doesn’t always mean you’re in a deeply emotional state. As a staple color in fashion (Hello, LBD and black pumps!), the choice to boast black nails can also indicate non-conformity. You like to push the envelope of style and appreciate unconventional beauty. You are confident and unafraid to stand out, even if it means going against the odds.
Au Naturel
Nails sans color or with a color that resembles their natural state (such as nude), indicates simplicity and straightforwardness. You like to keep things uncomplicated, low-maintenance and are confident with your natural beauty. You have a no-fuss style and take a less-is-more approach to beauty and style.
