10 Elegant, Nearly Nude Nail Polish Colors That Will Shine Next To an Engagement Ring
To announce their engagement, Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle stepped out in The Sunken Gardens of Kensington Palace, where they posed hand-in-hand for photos. For the occasion, Markle kept her ensemble simple–a white coat, knee length dress, nude heels and an elegant nude manicure–to show off her stunning three-stone diamond ring. With engagement season just around the corner, we suggest taking a note from Markle’s style guide, and trying a light pink nail polish color. From Chanel’s off-white shade and Essie’s sheer pale pink to Burberry’s dusty rose lacquer and Dior’s translucent pink formula, there’s something for everyone’s style and skin tone. Here, a closer look at the classic sheer pinks, creamy whites, elegant nudes, and 7 more sophisticated neutral nail polishes for a newly engaged hand.
