A chic take on "something blue," Dior's Porcelaine is both ladylike and unexpected. Pairing this powdery polish with delicate jewelry and airy dresses makes for a chic statement. Best of all, every Dior lacquer comes equipped with a full, rounded brush, which makes DIY application quick and easy.

Metallic manicures were a common sight during Spring 2014 fashion week. A handful of designers, like Philip Lim and Nina Ricci, opted for decadent, high-shine nails in gold and silver. Butter London's Trifle nail lacquer, a copper shade, coats nails in a rich tone that features luxurious gold shimmer and lasting wear.

This shade reminds us of fresh pink tulips. We imagine wearing it to a festive spring fête or on a stroll through the elegant floral exhibits at the New York Botanical Garden.

Essie's Fashion Playground, a cool light green, reminds us of a brighter and less milky Mint Candy Apple. This shade has a sheerer formula, and subtle hints of shimmer. For full coverage, we'd recommend three coats.

White nail polish was trending in New York last September: It was spotted on nails at the Kate Spade and Honor shows. But leave it to Jin Soon to rework the classic shade into something new. Kookie White is blended with tones of gray and blue, and looks more modern than traditional white polishes.
