I've been trying to branch out when it comes to nail colors lately. I'm a very boring girl so originally, I was just getting plain old white. This past year I did some blues, pinks, reds, and purples. I even did a design!!! (Small but cute! Costed 5 more dollars though...)
I have almond shaped nails, and I'm looking for some recommendations for new colors to try! I couldn't put a photo in an "ask," so I'm just hoping people will see this and comment.
Some colors I've tried this year:

One thing you must know about me is that I always have my nails done. My legs can be unshaved, hair can look like shit, skin in need of dermatological intervention, but my nails will ALWAYS BE DONE. This is a non-negotiable part of my routine. However, it used to be a stressful bi-weekly appointment due to decision fatigue. Should I get a design on my nails? Should I try a new color? What if hate my choice and I’m stuck with it for weeks? I say “used to be” because after years of trial and error, I have finally figured out my go-to nail color. Listen, It might not seem like a big discovery to you, especially because my go-to color is literally just a deep shade of red (the most obvious color on the planet that everyone has been defaulting to since 1500 BC probably), but to me, this is a sigh of relief. I have had fleeting phases in the past where I thought I had found my color (beige, white, baby pink, the list goes on), but deep red feels like forever. It matches every outfit, I’m satisfied after every manicure, and the anxiety of uncertainty that has plagued nail appointments for years has vanished. I am free.

i used to do a lot of interesting designs, not matching my nails to my clothes, but just picking a cool design as a stand-alone unit
but i got tired of doing all these designs and wasting my money (in ukraine people are literally obsessed with nails, and it began to feel like a socially forced), and i've been with natural nails for a year now

I love seeing the live site activity because it's like omg we're such different people all around the world who happen to be here at the same time. Like hi hello welcome to the app I can't wait to hear what you have to say. We're all just little ants and I think that's so cute. This is such a stupid thought but oh well maybe someone else feels this way.

I think we need to bring Box Tops back. One of my favorite parts of elementary school were the Box Tops competitions for a pizza party and I feel sad for the children who didn't get to experience that. Maybe there's an equivalent I don't know about (???) but I think Box Tops competitions are something every kid should get to experience.

Went to visit Colombia and saw these two beautiful cats outside. I don't know if these photos can even show how absolutely stunning they were. I like how beautiful cats are
