Anyone getting worn out on nail art? Hell, the all-powerful Marc Jacobs opted to show clear nails at NYFW. That is the ultimate stripped-down trend (if it sticks). Try to cleanse your palate with a soft, neutral shade. Fleshy tones even tend to elongate your fingers, much like nude pumps do to a leg, without totally going au naturale. With all these coffee-inspired titles, it's pretty clear where the polish-naming teams found their fuel.
