What colour nails with coral dress?

I'm going to a wedding on Friday, and I've got a coral colour dress, gold shoes and a good bag. Would normally just do French manicure but I've just broken one of my nails really short, so will need falsies- which colour should I go for?

I recently wore a pale coral dress with gold accessories - painted my nails a shimmery minty green.

It was a lovely contrast and I got a few compliments on it!

Bright pink like Essie's Big Spender - looks lighter than it appears in pictures on the web

okay...but I'm telling you...I've had nude nails this week and with all my tanning; people are literally stopping in their tracks to tell me how pretty i look (specifically my nails) I have 'monsooner or later' on my toes by opi (but thats my standard summer toe nail colour).

no one has ever told me I'm pretty before

oooh thank you ladies, lots to think about!

Grin Queen

Jealous you can pull off nude nails. I'm still too pasty for that Sad

i ruined my nude manicure though, went to the mac counter and painted one of my nails this metallic gold colour. it looks like it belongs on the pinkie nail of an abusive pimp.

the pinkie nail of an abusive pimp - love this!!

Has anyone seen the Barry M confetti ones?

They look teenagery in the bottle / on the shelf, but do have a go.

You can either go one coat subtle, or two coats for more jazz and they look really different. There is a black and gold and a black and white both of which look quite party.
