Lets face it, ladies. . . We love our nail polish. From super-soft neutrals and pretty pastels to daring darks and racy reds, there are so many chic colours that can take your nails from demure to sexy in seconds. If I had my way (and my own personal manicurist. . . What, a girl can dream) I would be switching up my polish shade faster than you could say “sweetheart.”

But alas, with so many colours to choose from, this at-home manicure mavin often wonders what are the must-have shades I should be stocking in my personal collection that will keep my nails looking haute for any occasion.

I caught up with the queen of colour, Essie Weingarten (founder of polish empire Essie), who gave me the top three colours every girl should keep on hand:

The sweet as sugar sheers: 

 


Essie - Ballet Slippers (Weingarten's Pick),  OPI - Sweet Heart, Sally Hansen - Linen, Nars Cosmetics - Candy Darling, China Glaze - Nude

The hot to trot reds:

 
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri™- RedChanel - Dragon, Essie - A List (Weingarten's Pick), L'Oreal - Queen of Hearts, Butter London - Come to Bed Red 

 

The girls just wanna have fun colours:


OPI – On the Same Paige, L’Oreal - Drama queen , Nars - Poker Face, Esse - Lapiz of Luxury (Weingarten's Pick), China Glaze - Re-Fresh Mint
