Perfectly Polished
Julep
By Seattle magazine staff June 23, 2009
Now that summer is officially upon us (the first day was June 21st) and the sun is making an extended stay, we can finally pull out the bright colors, happy sundresses, flip flops and tanks. Julep Nail Parlor (multiple locations, including 1427 5th Avenue in downtown Seattle and a new locale in Bellevue) must be a similarly happy mood, debuting a fun, colorful line of polish colors to go along with your summer wardrobe.
From a sunny daffodil yellow polish to an aqua blue shade, our staff went wild for these happy colors so we decided to take very official poll of our faves. Of the 30 fashion-savvy staffers polled, the clear winner by a margin of 7 votes was the “Rihanna” bright aubergine purple (not pictured), a funky addition to the little black dress or a flirty addition to jeans and a tank. Viva summer!
