Think spring thoughts. What are the first colors that come to mind? I bet they were pastels. And that’s exactly where Orly is going this spring. Their Spring II 2010 collection – appropriately named Sweet – is all about feminine pastels: milky pinks, blues, yellows, purples, and greens.
If you don’t do pink, Pixy Stix might be a great way of introducing this shade into your life. The softest pink is delicate and feminine – without the girly hues normally associated with such a light pink.
One of my favorite colors in the collection, Gumdrop fits right in with spring and its colors. A creamy pastel turquoise goes on smoothly and flawlessly. The results? The combination of edgy and sweet!
Now, Lemonade might have to grow on me. When I first put it on, my first thought was “not even dead!” Something about the chalky pale yellow didn’t sit well with me – but again, neither did mattes when they first come out. So who knows? This might end up being my color of the season!
We all know that the world has been taken aback by purples lately – dark, vibrant, shimmery purples. Lollipop keeps purple in your life, but a softer version.
Each polish in the Sweet collection comes with a free matching flavored mini lip-gloss key chain. I have been wearing Pixy Stix and actually like it! And as always, Orly polishes are free of DBP and all traces of toluene, formaldehyde, and formaldehyde resin. The Sweet collection will be available in April for $7.50 a bottle.

So, what are your favorite nail colors for the spring? Are you keeping any from past seasons? Which ones?
