Sold out! Ugh, so apparently the spring nail polish colors from Chanel, Hermes and Dior were so popular, they sold out! But never fear, I am here!

I have found fabulous alternatives to these three nail polishes for the spring 2026 season so you can still rock the latest spring 2026 nail polish trends without stressing over finding the exact bottle from one of these three designer brands.

The hottest nail polish color trends for spring 2026 include mint nail polish, shades of blue nail polish, and rust nail polish. These are fabulous colors which can be worn daily, or on and off for fun. So, without further ado, here are some amazing nail polishes in hottest colors of the spring 2026, assembled into the shopping widget below.

So, what do you think of these nail polish trends for spring 2026? Which color is your favorite for the spring season?

Well, that was a heat wave! What better place to hide from ninety-degree weather in March than the Beach Chalet in San Francisco! I had to go to the city for a meeting anyway, so enjoying a peaceful lunch at the Beach Chalet was a no brainer.

The temperatures rose to the low eighties in the city, but I was still comfortable in jeans and a knit top since we went out to Ocean Beach after our meeting. It was the perfect outfit for a warm spring day in the city. Love!

At the Beach Chalet, they gave us a fabulous table next to the window where we could enjoy the view of the ocean. It was peaceful and relaxing. Something I need right now!

I enjoyed the Mahi Mahi, which might be my new favorite menu item. It was delicious! I also enjoyed their calamari, which we ate as an appetizer, of course!

If you are local to the Bay Area, or plan to visit, be sure to stop into Beach Chalet for a meal. It is a rare, beachside restaurant in the city packed with history, ambiance, and delicious food. One of my favorite places to eat!

Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for spring coverage!

National Air and Space Museum

The Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington DC is jam-packed with everything you could possibly imagine when it comes to air and space. We spent four hours exploring the exhibits and learning new tidbits about both and air travel and space exploration. It was so amazing!

If you haven’t been to the Air and Space museum in Washington DC, I highly recommend adding it to your itinerary next time you visit the capitol. They have in-depth exhibits about the history of air travel including original artifacts from the Wright Brothers.

It was also amazing to see female pioneers in air travel and they impacted the industry. It’s always fun to see powerful women, especially from before women had widespread rights. They were true trail blazers!

After visiting the museum, we walked over to Old Ebbitt Grill for dinner. It is a historical restaurant in the heart of Washington DC. We even saw a secret service man checking the area! That was fun! I wonder who was there?

I enjoyed the crab cake and fries while my daughter enjoyed pasta bolognese. Both dishes were really yummy; I definitely want to go back!

What I wore to visit the Air and Space Museum:

Be sure to wear comfortable shoes for visiting the museum and also walking around. This vacation requires a lot of walking!

Thanks for stopping by!
