I’ve never been a nail polish girl.  I work a job that’s tough on your hands, my hobbies as well tend to wreak havoc on the nails and a manicure just never seems to last more than a day.  But yesterday at the store something was calling me to treat myself to a new color for my toes.  Coral is all over the magazines, runways and blogs for this spring so I tracked down a pretty shade of peach.  I was dying to give it a try but I already have lilac on my toes so it ended up on my fingers (luckily for my nails, it was raining out on Sunday and I couldn’t get my hands in the dirt).

I’m actually surprised how much I love it!  Even on my pale skin is looks warm and so springy.  It’s bright but doesn’t remind me of a grandma’s toes in Palm Beach.  I’m sure they will be toast by the end of the day but I plan on rocking coral on my toes all summer.

I found three pretty good options at Target in a range of prices.  Essie‘s Tart Deco ($7) is the spot-on shade all the celebrities are wearing, but if you have a hard time paying $7 a bottle Revlon‘s Peachy ($5) was almost exactly the same for a couple dollars less.  I also noticed NYC‘s Times Square Tangerine Creme (.99) was pretty close as well for a budget option.
