What’s better than cozying up by the fire with a nice glass of red? Wine-color nails to match.
If there’s any kind of chill in the air, you can’t go wrong with a dark red nail. The color is perfectly moody for fall, sophisticated-meets-festive for the holidays, and neutral enough to wear on repeat until pastel season. And while autumnal burgundy and trendy cranberry nails have had their time in the spotlight, the start of winter is the perfect time to test drive a richer shade. That’s where the wine manicure comes in.
For such a universally flattering look, there are so many ways to wear wine-color nails. An almond-shaped wine-chrome mani and a dark, square French tip have as much range between them as a Pinot Noir and a Bordeaux. But no matter your preference—in grape regions or nail vibes—there’s a perfect vino-coded manicure for you. Ahead, find the best wine-manicure inspo to treat yourself this winter.
