Getting a manicure. A ritual more sacred than roast dinner on a Sunday. Although I’m incomplete without acrylics, choosing which colour polish to go for is never an easy gig (commitment-phobe, maybe). Luckily for you – and, let’s be honest me – we’ve lined up three easy-to-wear nail looks to put your indecisive mind at ease.

1 Ask for: Embellishment
There’s one sure-fire way to match your mani to your everyday – go nude. Add pearls or studs to your ring finger for an understated extra, or to every darn finger if that’s more your vibe.
-
2 Ask for: Metallic nude
If nude’s okay, but you’re after something more, make it metallic. It’s ideal for last-minute plans (goes with every outfit), and metallic polish is practically chip-proof. Winner.
-
3 Ask for: Ferrari red
Red’s classic, obviously. It looks just as good around the pool in August as it does around the tree in December. Wine, tomato, or rose; a great Friday night and the best tones of red polish to go for.
