A Rainbow of Nail Polish Celebrates Pride

July 24 is the wedding anniversary for hundreds of same-sex couples, and it's a historic moment in equality for all.

July 24 is the wedding anniversary for hundreds of same-sex couples, and it's a historic moment in equality for all. The date marks the first day the marriage bill, which allows gay and lesbian couples to legally wed, went into effect in New York state.

And to celebrate, Color Club has launched a rainbow-hued Pride nail polish collection ($48). The seven-piece set includes cheekily named shades: (from left to right) P is for Pride; Polish For All; Dress For the Parade; Not Just For Kelly, Green; Boys Wear Blue; Express Yourself; and 0-60 Speedy Topcoat. Even better, some of the proceeds from the sales of the toluene-, DBP-, formaldehyde-, and paraben-free polishes will go to New York-based AIDS-related charities.

Nail Polishes For Halloween 2010

Fall 2010 nail polish collections are certainly sophisticated, but when it comes to the season's most playful holiday, it's time to have some shimmery, wacky fun. Last year for Halloween, we saw lots of sparkle and vivid hues, but this year, there's plenty more creative flair added to the mix. See what I mean now.

Trend Alert: Orange Nails

We've been seeing a lot of hot pink nails lately and we've heard everyone go on about neon nails, but the only one who's really been wearing any of the other super-bright shades has been Rihanna.

We've been seeing a lot of hot pink nails lately and we've heard everyone go on about neon nails, but the only one who's really been wearing any of the other super-bright shades has been Rihanna.

I predict that all of this is about to change. With the warm weather setting in and Lindsay Lohan getting on the orange-nail bandwagon, something tells me that this trendsetter is going to jump-start a neon-nail bonanza. Here are two new bright Summer orange lacquers I think you'll love.

Essie Mini Shorts ($8) is part of the Summer Neon collection. Out of all four colors, the orange is by far the most fun and the boldest.

If you're scared to test it out, just close your eyes and think of it as a really bright coral or melon shade. Or, you can try it on your toes (like I did). It's vibrant, but addictive.
