I’m one of those girls that can’t do nails. It’s no secret to people that know me that I’m a nervous nail-biter. So not only am I horrible at painting my own nails, I can’t even really keep mine from looking a total mess without professional help.

But I have serious nail envy. I can totally empathize with Gretchen Weiners when she said “my nail beds suck.” And I get serious jealousy when I spot a great manicure and hear that she did it herself. Props to you pretty hands.

I’m super indecisive when I head to the nail salon so I’ve put together a little nail inspiration for next time I’m standing at the technicolor wall of polish.

Whether your a classic color gal or a mid-to-mildly more adventurous lady, there’s an option for everyone. My personal favorite is a simple nail color with a touch or sparkle. Perfect for the transition from work to holiday fun.
