How pretty are these colors from Gucci for spring 2023! Love! So, I know I have been talking about neutral nail polish being a thing, but I got so bored of neutrals, I needed something a little bit more fun for the upcoming spring season. It’s been awhile since I reviewed Gucci nail polish, so I decided to dive into their spring collection, and I am so glad I did!

While many designers are showing neutral hues for nails this spring 2023 season, Gucci is ignoring the trend and giving us beautiful spring hues for the warm weather season; and I am here for it! There is a fabulous fuchsia, a yellowish ivory, and light denim blue. These colors are fun and joyful; exactly what we need for spring!

I’ve decided I want some fun colors for spring to mix with my neutrals. You know I like to alternate my nails! So, without further ado, here are the three cheery hues from Gucci for the spring 2023 season, all shown with one base coat, and two coats of color, no top coat.

Gucci Vantine Fuchsia nail polish is a fun, candy pink fuchsia which is bright and makes me wants to eat candy; literally! This is such a great color for anyone looking for a bright hue for spring. I think for me, this will be perfect for my toes!

This yellowish ivory hue from Gucci for spring is oddly inviting. I normally shy away from ivory or white nails, but there is something I love about this color. I think it is the yellow hue which is so slight, it makes the ivory interesting. I think this is the perfect replacement for a neutral nail if you strongly dislike neutral nails. I plan to wear Cecilia Ivory often.

Well, as you know, I love blue nail polish colors! So obviously, I am wearing Lucy Baby Blue right now as I type this. This light, denim blue hue is cool and has a slight lavender undertone. I am in love! This will be my spring go-to when I need fun on my nails. I am so bored of neutral nails already! Let’s have some fun with this blue!

Well, those are the three nail polish colors for spring 2023 from Gucci. What do you think? I feel like these are fabulous alternatives to the shades of pink, red and orange other designers are putting out there. I love having fun alternatives.

Can you believe it is already the end of February? Where did this month go? Mother nature gave us a few spring-like days in February, but now the weather is back to freezing: despite the beautiful blossoms on display all over town. I love seeing the Cherry Blossoms, pear trees, and magnolias in full bloom. The camelias bloomed late this year, so they are still putting on a show, making it a beautiful sight around Silicon Valley, this almost-spring season!

Looking at all these blossoms as I drive around, bundled up in my coat, makes me dream of the spring season. Therefore, I am making sure my closet is ready for the day when 70 degrees hits again!

This spring we are looking at straight leg jeans, flare jeans, and wide legs jeans for casual days. For office attire, look for straight trousers, and wide leg trousers. Skirt lengths are above the knee for structured looks, and for flowing looks, it’s all about the maxi.

Of course, when it comes to handbags, small or medium satchels, shoulder bags, and hobo bags are still hotter than hot. Shoes are trending towards a square toe, and street sneakers are still a thing.

The overall vibe this spring, as well as throughout 2023, is classic, investment style dressing. When it comes to jewelry, look for classic, thoughtful pieces. I am in love with these silver pieces from Lois Hill Jewelry right now. They are timeless and can be layered or worn alone. Lois Hill Jewelry looks fabulous with office attire and casual looks, as well as going out ensembles. I love them so much, they gave me a coupon code to share with you.

Stay tuned! My spring 2023 trend report will come out soon!
