What Color Is Your Pedicure?

It all depends on your sandals—which, this summer, should be a decidedly brilliant shade of something.

The cool cement polish makes the sandals’ wild pink more sophisticated.

More color options (for the hot Sergio Rossis!).

Yellow looks so pop against the hot pink shoes.

This muted coral tones down the drama—but still looks exotic.

Deep blue-green, and drop-dead sexy.

So feminine! The soft rose sets off the shoes’ bold fuchsia.
