Better Together

We are crazy about color theory at Paintbox, so to curate this season's top color combinations, we turned to 17 Crosby insiders and women that we've previously profiled via our Nails of New York series. Set the tone for your spring with these right-now dynamic duos (lavender + coral, blush + cherry, lilac + peach) that you'll love having on your fingertips. These unexpected power pairings are twice as nice for warmer months-and beyond. 

"I'm currently obsessed with this super bright yellow with a hint of green. I get so much energy just looking at it! Here I've paired with a soft, muted pink that's bordering on lilac." -Lotta Nieminen

"I'm loving lavender + peach for something soft; or candy-apple red + hot-pink for bold!" -Michelle Lee

"I always love a lilac shade. Since purples are both warm and cool, they suit every skin tone and can be paired with almost any color. One of my favorite spring combo is lavender and coral. It's an unexpected pairing, but the two actually work really well together!"  -Julia Murphree 

"Blush and cherry is my fave. I just love the contrast because red is my power colors and is beautiful on brown skin. Red makes me happy!" -Tiffani Carter-Thompson 

"Lilac and orange poppy. When I see these colors, they instantly remind me of the spring blossoms—especially lavender fields and poppy fields. They just make me happy and paired together it is the perfect match." -Alex Proba
