Nail colour for a Mediterranean beach holiday

Ok, Ladies. What colour should I go for?

I’ve got a manicure and pedicure booked, but need some inspiration. Not really into nail art.
I’m normally quite boring and go for a sparkly coral on both. Been looking for inspiration on clothing websites and it looks like pale pink or white is the goto colour this year. My clothes are mainly white, with gold and brightly coloured accessories.
Anyone noticed any trends this year? Do you wear the same on toes and hands? As you can probably tell, I’m a bit of a novice. Salon manicures are for high days and holidays.

I love a bright orange or cobalt blue on holiday.

I saw a lot of yellow nails when I was out yesterday. Agree that pink seems to be having a moment.

Personally I always do my hands and toes the same colour.

I do fingers and toes different colours as I tend to change them out of step with each other. I like classic dark reds on my toes and at this time of year dark pink or latte colours on my fingers.

I absolutely love bright orange or coral. Have an amazing holiday! ☀️

I did pink with a subtle sparkly gold layer on top for my recent holiday.

and my summer holiday is about the only time my fingers and toes are in step
