I've worn my nails bone-short for about 2 years now, and one thing I've found out is this--every color works. I'm talking about baby blues and pinks to black or white, or even extremes like fusha or neon green. Because the nails aren't long, it wont look cheep or cheesy ('cause everyone knows they're yours) and it's way better than acrylic because you can change the color at the drop off a dime. Really, you should just go by whatever color YOU think is hot at the moment. But, as a basic guideline, here's what some different colors can do:
DARKS: Blacks, Blood-Reds, Deep Blues, %26amp; Violets usually make your fingers pop, so don't wear them if you you're going for a casual, lighter look--unless you're just adventures like that:)
BROWNS: Well, If you want that whole ';naturale'; thing, brown is gunna do the job. Be careful with milk chocolate hues...it can make short nails look bad.
PINKS: The universal polish. This color goes for just about any situation and with most casual outfits. Keeping to a basic pink is the best choice.
BLUES: For the general blues, this color works well with outfits containing various colors.
GREENS: It's not every day that you see somebody with green nail polish. Therefore, you should choose this color wisely. The basic greens pack a mean punch to short nails, so be sure befor you apply.
LIGHTS: The lighter shades of all colors are very great with short nails, and as long as they don't outrageously clash your outfit (which is hard to do) you're in the clear for all of them.
GREY%26amp;YELLOW: There's a reason why both of these colors can be found on caution tape. They both are very attractive shades, and sometimes difficult to find. When you put them on, you'll surely get a lot of stares...
FRENCH MANICURE: Seriously, you can never go wrong with it. It's perfect for absolutely any occasion or outing. Goes with every and any out fit you can imagine and its CLASSIC. Of course, because it's so popular, it can run the line of boring, or ';done';. So if you're adventurous, go for a neon!
NEONS: Fun for teens, but once you're over 25, try to stay away.
TRANSLUCENT: These are polishs that you may have to put on about 5 coats to even see the color! They're nice if you're unsure about what color to choose. Two coats and you're good. It's the best choice if you don't want naked nails, but aren't sure about a color.
WHITE: It's a challange to wear this with out looking like you used a bottle of white-out. But if you can manage to pull it off, it goes with everything--except maybe if you want a mpre professional look, go for darks.
That's about all, or at least what I think. Remember, no matter the length, the key to a nice nail is PROPER FILING, so take the time to make your nails shapely!! Hope that helps somewhat.

Shear pinks or neutrals. That is a good color becuz' short nails chip faster and you don't notice chippings as easily. Then again.. I have seen burgundy or deep blood red colors on fair skins and they look really good.
Anything with natural tints like peach light pink light brown tan reddish colors like burgandy
