Pantone’s Spring 2015 Women’s Fashion Report highlights ten trending colors for the season. Per their website, “This season there is an emphasis on the cooler and softer side of the color spectrum, with bold color taking a more supportive role as an accent.” I posted previously about the Pantone color of the year, Marsala, and one of my readers suggested doing a similar post for their seasonal color picks as well. I thought this was a great suggestion, so I selected my top picks for gel polish colors to match each of the Pantone Spring colors.
Blues seem to be trending… but I’m surprised at the lack of purple in the mix. I love wearing purple in the Spring.
AQUAMARINE
Pantone calls this shade Aquamarine, but it looks like more of a baby blue or sky blue to me. I put all of these colors in Photoshop and used my color dropper to get the exact shades and match them up with my gel swatches.
SCUBA BLUE
I love these bright, vibrant blues! Pink Gellac Gipsy Blue is a really hot seller right now at the Boutique!
LUCITE GREEN
This color looks like a lighter, minty teal green shade… my favorite color!
CLASSIC BLUE
I fell in love with classic blue shades last summer! It was my go-to color all season long and I can’t wait to wear it again this season.
TOASTED ALMOND
I don’t wear neutrals often but when I do, this is my favorite shade. CND Shellac Feild Fox and ibd Dockside are my two go-to neutral shades that work well with my skin tone.
STRAWBERRY ICE

Pink Gellac Lollypop Pink
TANGERINE
Tangerine is a bit of a light, peachy orange.
CUSTARD
This looks like a yellow-hued neutral that may work better for fashion than nails. I’m taking some liberties with this one since I don’t really have any exact matches, but you could go a little golden with it like Gelish Allure.
MARSALA
Marsala is a reddish brown that’s been growing on me lately. I think of it as more of a Fall color though.
GLACIER GREY
I just painted my mom’s nails this shade a couple days ago and it was so pretty. Grey typically makes me think of Fall and Winter months though.
Let me know what you think of this post and if you’d like to see future Pantone color selections.
