New York Fashion Week Spring Summer 2016 Manicures
Jin Soon Choi created colorful nail art that played with the monochromatic theme of the Tibi SS16 collection. JINsoon products: JINsoon Spring 2016 Collection (Picture above supplied by JINSoon and BPCM)
It appears that, just like Spring/Summer 2015, NYFW Spring Summer 2016 Manicures have two trends: ultra-nude/barely there/pink/golds or opaque brights/lights. I didn’t bring you any of the ultra-nudes and barely theres because, quite frankly, they are a yawn to look at. I prefer the nude shade but they just don’t make great pictures.

Brooks Brothers by Zac Posen’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection was highlighted by Glamsquad for essie who created a standout nail design that played on the plaids and interesting stitching details found throughout the garments, all while keeping true to brand’s classic resort feel. essie nail products used: first base base coat, fifth avenue, pret-a-surfer, bikini so teeny, sand tropez, , quick-e quick drying drops

Rebecca Minkoff, fashion designer and essie’s Global Color Designer, chose “lucite sunset” for her main mainicure design for her Spring Summer 2016 Manicures look. This trend was directly inspired by the chunky Lucite heels found throughout the Spring/Summer 2016 footwear collection. essie nail products used: first base base coat, tarte deco, beach bum blu, midnight cami, gel setter top coat
Taking inspiration from Sophie Theallet’s African themed Spring/Summer 2016 collection, Julie Kandalec for essie created a modern crocodile nail design with shades licorice and leggy legend.
Veronica Beard took inspiration from Miami Beach in the 1970’s for the Spring/Summer 2016 collection. To pair with the “baked out” color palette, Glamsquad for essie created a statement half moon nail look by using clambake, a creamy red-orange, on the tip of the nail.

I like the Tom Ford Nail Lacquer in Show Me the Pink!
Essie Reds, they have the classic fall look
I like the Dior Purple Rock
yves saint laurent le fucshia mat
I like the look of the Yves Saint Laurent ‘La Laque Couture’ Nail Lacquer in Bleu Cobalt. When it comes to nail polish, blue is my go-to color, and I love the deep shade of this one.
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics ‘Cosplay’ Nail Lacquer
I’m really digging the color & the name!
I really like the Dior Vernis Purple Rock 980 nail color. It’s a dark, rich color and perfect for fall.
I love the JINsoon ‘Gala’ Nail Lacquer. Beautiful sparkly color.
I love the Essie reds, great for fall into winter.
I like the Tiddly Nail Polish by Butter London High Tea Nail Laquer
Love the Dior Purple ROck
I absolutely LOVE Dior “Purple Rock”! I used to like boring browns…but now I’m more into the bright, crazy colors! I really like any kind of blues too!
I like the ‘La Laque Couture’ Nail Lacquer in Taupe Retro because it is something that I could wear to work, but also something that I would enjoy wearing on that rare day off that comes along every so often–
I’m loving the navy blue trend, like YSL’s Bleu Cobalte.
Blue Iris gets my vote. I have been looking for a blue nail polish to wear when I support my favorite team that’s colors are blue and white.
I like Essie The Beiges. It’s a nude with a little bit of sass.
Well, I did learn one thing as I aged.. do NOT follow fads. Just be classic, it’s the best way to be! Classic.. you can’t go wrong with that ever. I would do “wine” colors for fall. It matches most of my wardrobe! And it’s not too brash on an older lady.
I like the Yves Saint Laurent ‘La Laque Couture’ Nail Lacquer in cobalt to make my nails look like Rita Remark’s standout blue nail design.
I’m inspired by Dior purple rock b/c purples are always my favorite shade to wear in fall/winter season.
The Dolce & Gabbana in Jaipur Blue is beautiful. Reminds me of a great pair of blue jeans and would go with so many other colors
