{More nail love. No affiliation} Spring is in the air and hot new nail colors are everywhere. I barely have enough fingers to try them all. But I will "suffer" through the arduous task to make sure that when your digits need a splash of color, you'll know which nail colors love brown skin. Ready to meet Orly's Spring 2021 Collection? Then let's go Day Trippin'
It's hard to go wrong with Orly's Spring 2021 Collection. All six colors are vibrant and compliment brown skin beautifully. The yellows are mustardy, the mauves are ruddy, and the brights are well toned. No matter which color you choose, it'll love your brown skin.

 Click to watch. Video features audio commentary. | Chunky GlittersChunky glitters make life sparkle. First off, let me say, I will do a full two coat swatch of 'Warm It Up' in the next post. However, I had a feeling that these two colors would pair well together. So, I just HAD to try and they did!! 'Warm It Up'' features cream-colored, chunky glitters and mini, red-orange glitters. The beautiful contrast of glitter size and color adds interest to 'Warm It Up.' And she is spicy enough to make any compatible color sparkle. |
 Orly in “Everything’s Peachy” | Everything's PeachyYes, Orly. Everything is Peachy. This creamy, peachy-nude is everything. It is subtle but doesn't go unnoticed. Keeps a low profile and pops all at the same time. The slight peach hue loves my skin tone and I love it back. I kept getting wedding and Spring vibes from this color, so I did some research. Turns out, she was first released in Spring 2019 as part of Orly's Radical Optimism collection. |
 Two coats “Everything’s Peachy” + One coat “Warm it Up” | However, I met her this summer when she was re-featured as part of Orly's Picnic Party Haul as a trio with 'Warm it Up' and 'Summer Fling.' I'm glad she was featured in this haul because this is one of my new favorite colors. She says so many things to me: "I'm Professional." "I'm Playful." "You need to wear me again." "Preferably on the beach." |
Do you like "Everything's Peachy" better on her own or coupled with 'Warm It Up?' |

'In The Cabana' trio
Part of the In the Cabana trio, I am surprised by how much I like 'Hip and Outlandish.' It is a vibrant mermaid, greenish turquoise.
I wore this color for five days before the first little chip appeared on the inner corner of my index finger nail.
My favorite color from the trio is Spark, the chill yellow. And my pedicure color for the next couple weeks is . . .
For the First Time. I will be painting my tootsies with this rich pink with bluish-purple undertones.
Which is your favorite color from the trio? |

 Click to See Video | Back in the DayOrly “For the First Time” is a gorgeous pink with blue-purple undertones. Back in the day, I only wore golds, browns, and maroons on my nails. Then one day, I booked a spa mani on my lunch break and the nail pro nudged me toward Essie’s “Footloose” which is similar to this shade “For the First Time.” That’s when I learned how much nail polish could love brown skin. |
Now, I'm on a quest to meet all nail colors that love brown skin. Join me!!
 Holding on tight to my new ‘fave’ summer polish. | I’m in LoveEvery now and again, a nail color comes along and “Sparks” fly. It’s official, I’m in love with Spark by Orly. Spark is part of Orly’s ‘In The Cabana’ trio. Out of the six colors that I purchased with my Summer Haul, I knew I would either love or hate Spark. It's love!! She's a creamy formula in an amazing shade of yellow that is bright without being neon and fun without being obnoxious. The perfect yellow. |
 True to color as shown in bottle. | Against All OddsThe odds were stacked against Spark because my go to top coat from Seche Vite had gotten gummy and stringy. I panicked, but Spark is such a great formula that a basic clear, top coat was enough to finish my manicure with a gorgeous shine. I can’t wait to try Spark again with a real top coat. I’m getting goosebumps just thinking of how much prettier my mani will be. |
 Feeling Good After My Spinning Workout with Spark | I also thought I might need to base my nails with a coat of white polish to make the yellow pop, but no. Spark offered full coverage and full pigment in just two coats. As an unexpected bonus, working out on my spin bike was more fun with Spark. I haven’t tried the other five colors in my haul yet, but I’m so in love with Spark, they’ll have to wait a couple days for my infatuation to wear off. Sidebar: I just noticed that my after workout pose is similar to the cover of my love story, Suds. Funny. |
 | Saved by the EmailI've been eyeing summer collections from a few different nail polish brands, but I just couldn't find a great sale. The discount is a necessity since I binge buy at least six nail colors at a time. You know, a girl needs variety. Anyway, I had already stocked my Amazon cart with the Essie Summer 2020 collection which I love. I get amazing Santa Fe vibes from this new Bustling Bazaar Collection. Then, everything changed when Orly delivered a fantastic sale directly to my inbox. |
 | My Own CollectionI had my mind set on colors I wanted to dazzle my fingertips this summer, but aside from Essie's Bustling Bazaar, no one brand was reading my mind. Until Orly did. The mind reading didn't happen with their ultra-cool Summer 2020 collection dubbed Retrowave. Although I like the colors, I haven't been feeling very retro as of late. Then, hello Orly Summer Haul email featuring seven nail polish bundles of three. I'm still shaking from the build-a-collection excitement. |
 | The summer trios included:
Today, I snagged my two favorite trios In The Cabana and Picnic Party. And I can't wait til they find my doorstep. In The Cabana contains three brights: Hip and Outlandish, Spark, and For the First Time. |
 | While Picnic Party is a more subtle blend of fun neutrals that I suspect will look amazing on my brown skin. Picnic Party includes Everything's Peachy, Summer Fling, and Warm It Up. I just might double back and grab the Poolside Party haul because I do love a beautiful blue. Stay TunedMy next post will feature swatches of these fun brights on brown skin. May the best color win the honor of primping my toes for pedicure season. |
