Moody blues
Blue is always a glamorous choice for fall and winter, which can go with many different styles and look good on any nail shape, no matter the length.
“Blue, in general, has been huge all year, but for the cooler season, we’ll be seeing bolder navy shades rather than soft, light blues,” Glass said. “Bold blues make for a polished look that can give your signature style an update without being too flashy.”
To elevate the basic single colour mani, add checkered prints as an accent on one or two fingers for instant chicness.
