As you know, I talk about color all the time. I absolutely love color. However, lately I’ve been into neutral nails. I love nail art, I love accent nails, I love bold and beautiful colors, but more recently I’ve been craving neutral shades. I think there is something so elegant about a neutral nail. You can always jazz up the neutrals if you feel the need, and if not, you can never go wrong with a simple manicure.

Hi Julie,
I saw the link to your blog from Fashboulevard and I just wanted to leave a comment and tell you how much I love your theme. The color scheme is sooo pretty! Glad I stumbled upon your site!
Oh, and I must mention that I don’t do the nude nails, :o/ because I feel like my nails look better with brights. But I do like the nude nails in the photo at the top left, and also top right. The sparkles and also the color pop might be a neat way for me to try the look. I actually just did a post on nail care at my blog. What do you think? You can see the post here: Beautiful Nails: Mani & Pedi Tips
I’ll definitely be coming back, I can tell your blog has a lot of great things to see.

I love neutral nails! My go to color is Step Right Up by OPI, it’s the palest pink that’s just perfect with my skin tone!

This is always my go-to when I don’t want to wear bold color. I love Essie’s “ballet slippers” and I have a few mauve-y shades that are great, too!
I love color but I also love a neutral look too – loving the shades you picked:)
Neutral nails are so chic–and I love how they usually make your hands look longer and more tan! That mani with the colored tips is pretty awesome, I must say!
YES! I thought the same thing. Neutral shades totally make your fingers/hands look longer and leaner! xo, Julie
I love neutral nails. I end up going for ones like that essie example in your top picture. I like the way it still stands out as a nice manicure, but it’s such an easy going, simple look.

Neutral nails are always appropriate and in style. I love me a classic! 😉 Bubble Bath by OPI has been my go-to for the past couple years.

These neutral nails are absolutely gorgeous! I have pinkish nude color, but I need to try one of these polishes out!

I am definitely into the nude nail trends right now but I’m worried about the polish matching my skin too much. Need to give it a try!

It’s so funny but I usually wear red polish but lately have been straying to nudes as a break (and for my more conservative clients.) love these choices!

Whenever I get mani’s I go in wanting something bold, but usually go with a neutral so I am so glad you listed all these great neutrals!!! Ugh I would love that pastel version of a french manicure! xoxo
I always really love a neutral nail. It’s so classic and pretty.
I love the neutral color nail polish it is so classy and goes with any outfit. I just need to be careful since my skin color is so white.
I love that nail color especially when you add colors to the tips like the second picture.

I love pretty colored nail polishes, but to be honest, I usually wear a nude color because I’m a nail biter. I feel like they don’t need to be perfect and can still look OK with a nude polish! I’ll have to check these shades out!

go for the glam
totally in love with nude nails! great post!

I like the pictures especially the top left and right. Lately, Deborah Lippmann has been my favorite polish.
LOVE these neutral nails -especially love the french mani with the colored tips – so fab!
