For me, summer is a time for bright colors: vibrant dresses, shoes, and fingernails. I like to branch out from the traditional nail colors (You know: pink, red, nude, or white). And this summer, for the first time, I tried essie's Lilacism.

If you couldn't tell by the name, it's a shade of lilac. I gravitated toward the color because it was different, but not overwhelming. And the more I wore it, the more people commented on how much they liked it, and the more I grew to love it! It was the perfect choice for the season—light, playful, colorful.

And now that I've started putting on funkier colors, I can't help but form a queue of my next choices. So far it's Lapis of Luxury, Turquoise and Caicos, and Haute as Hello.
