In my opinion, no outfit would be complete without the perfect nail polish to - no pun intended - polish off your look. A personal favorite of mine in the nail polish brand category would be Essie. This brand, along with others such as O.P.I. are some of the most well known to be used in nail salons. With prices on each bottle ranging from about $8-$10 they are a splurge item, and therefore I believe should be bought in basic colors. The three main colors I would consider basic would be a beige or natural color, a pastel, and a deeply saturated color.
First, a beige colored nail polish is a necessity for a quick color that provides that little extra shine to your fingers and pulls a look together. The neutrality of the color avoids any outfit-nail color clashes in a hurry. My pick would be Essie’s “Imported Champagne.”

Next, pastels are not only acceptable for Easter anymore. Light tints of pinks, greens, and blues work wonders with neutral colored outfits, adding the perfect pop of color that your boss, teacher, and friends will approve of. My pick would be Essie’s “Mint Candy Apple.”

Finally, a deeply saturated color can be worn year-round. The deep color can be considered a Thanksgiving or Christmas color when worn in the winter, and can also add a nice contrast to summer and spring outfits that are normally light in color. My pick would be Essie’s “Material Girl.”

If you're not happy with my choices, the Essie Boutique website offers hundreds of different colors, categorized in shades or collections. In addition, they offer nail treatments, solutions, and accessories which include solutions for almost any nail-crisis you can have. The special solutions, such as extensive nail strengtheners and even nail polish top coats specifically designed for people who use tanning beds, cost more than traditional nail polishes by Essie at about $15.
