We like to think pedicure season is year-round, which means it's never a bad time to plan your polish MO. (If you're a hot-pink person, these 20 shades have us feeling a certain type of way right now—just throwing that out there.)

Electric shades of neon or pastel hues like mint have been the pedicure prescription of choice, but this year, we're throwing some new colors into the mix just in time for your next salon appointment. Yes, scarlet reds and go-with-everything nudes will always be on the menu. But we'd also like to introduce you to some unexpected nail colors, like electric purple, dusty olive, denim blue, and shades of peach and pink. Ahead, we're highlighting the 15 best pedicure colors to experiment with plus the polishes you should snap up before they fly off the shelves.

#15: Dark Chocolate

Coco for Real Chocolate Scented Nail Polish in Meet Me on Mars

A rich chocolate shade is our go-to pedicure shade because of how striking it looks in an open-toed shoe—to be honest, we're probably also sporting this as a manicure at the same time. While this color seems cold, it actually adds a bit of warmth to your nails. It's elevated and chic and transitions well in between seasons.

Essie

Expressie Quick-Dry Nail Polish in Precious Cargo-Go!

Olive green might seem an unlikely pedicure color, but it's surprisingly flattering. It goes with pretty much everything, and it's a fresh alternative to the tired and expected mix of mints or neons. (We're especially obsessed with Essie's 8-free, quick-dry formula above!)
