Nail polish w/ a navy dress?

Ladies, I need your opinions. Next weekend I'm MOH in my best friend's wedding, and our dresses are navy. I can't figure out what color polish to wear!

Here are my thoughts: OPI actually has a really pretty shimmery navy polish, and I think it could work on short nails, but I'm not sure how it would go over at the office for the two weeks after the wedding... though I could always just get a polish change. My other two thoughts are either a pale pink/nude or a french.

What do you all think? One of those? Something else completely?

Re: Nail polish w/ a navy dress?

  • I am at the office and have on a dark gray from OPI called "My Private Jet".  I like it.  Does she mind if you wear dark polish?  I think if I wore a Navy dress I would wear red polish.  Or a silver metallic polish?
  • I don't think I would go with navy to be in a wedding... I feel it's more bold and sexy than dressy/formal. I really love the idea of pink- either pale or a even bit brighter- I think that would look great with navy.
  • I always like pink with navy.  But I think a navy polish would look good too. 

    My BM's wore black dresses with green sashes and a few of them wore a darker polish (blackish with green hints) and it looked really good!  But yeah, some brides might not want that dark of nails.

  • Pink.  A fuschia pink--or something with cool undertones to flow with the blue.  I like OPI Cara Mia Crimson, Senorita Rose-alita, You're a Pisa Work, something along those lines.  Just not too dark.  Has anyone in the party recommended anything?

  • My first thoughts were pink or red.
  • My friend said she thought the navy would be pretty, so I'm sure she's fine with dark polish. I just work in a federal govt office so the look is pretty conservative.

    Thanks for the opinions, I hadn't even thought of a brighter pink but that sounds pretty. It might come down to my mood that day Stick out tongue

  • Katie- I wear dark polish often and I'm in about the most conservative gov. environment you can be in (aside from the slutty interns, but that is a different story), I think you'll be fineSmile
  • I am going to be the odd one out, I like nude! but since its a wedding, I would be asking the bride:)

  • I'm with miss.kayla. Let the bold dress speak for itself, and go pale on the nails.
