As you can probably assume from the stories currently populating our home page, to say we're excited about spring's arrival would be an understatement. With so much promise pinned on the next few months, our minds are officially in spring mode, regardless of the fact that the weather's got some catching up to do. So until we can slip into lightweight dresses and dust off our sandals, we're starting to carve out our springtime aesthetic in a way that doesn't call for double-figure temperatures by upgrading our nails.

One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to transition your look between seasons is with a slick of fresh paint on your talons. While the moody colors of burgundy, black, and navy always serve us well in the colder months, spring calls for a brighter polish palette. So which spring nail colors are we buying into? The classics. Keep scrolling to discover the spring nail colors we'll be wearing that look striking on all skin tones.

Style Notes: While red nail polish looks great year-round, for spring, look for colors with an orangey tone for a more brilliant, juicy payoff.

Style Notes: Probably the most divisive shade in our spring nail color lineup, striking shades of green polish have caught the attention of more and more fashion people. Keep the look polished by avoiding lime shades. Instead, seek out powdery tones of pistachio.

Style Notes: One of our favorite spring signifiers is when gorgeous yellow daffodils begin decorating our green spaces. Pay homage to the flower with yellow polish that's more muted than zingy.
