A fashionable new [Nails Inc.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-collection) nail polish collection sources right from the colors and patterns of the Preen by Thorton Bregazzi Spring/Summer 2014 runway show. The Nails Inc. and Preen partnership resulted in three new solid colors created to match looks from the Preen ready-to-wear collection, plus another fun 'Deco Cuts' polish made up of colorful squares suspended in a clear nail varnish.

With the Preen collection taking inspiration from the hot heat of Miami, nail colors like [Atlantic Powder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virgin-atlantic-sweater) blue, [Miami Hot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b01-44-nfl) pink and Florida Coral are just as summery. The four-part Preen nail polish collection was launched through Nails Inc. at the end of May and it will be available worldwide as of June.
