penny lane

I am really digging the metallic colors for nail polish for the holidays this year – it feels festive without the standard reds and greens.  I’ve been sporting gold nails a lot, but on a recent trip to the salon I decided that copper it was the next choice for me. I really like the shiny new penny look on the finished product, but if feels more muted than gold I've been sporting. How do you feel about metallic polish colors? Do you like to be trendy with the polish or are you more of a classic reds and pinks, or french manicure type?
