6 Holiday Nail Cocktails for Your Next Soiree Klaudia Tirico
'Tis the season for clinking glasses and an overflow of champagne to wash down that food baby you can't seem to get rid of after Thanksgiving. With the endless amount of soirees filling up your calendar, you've got to make sure your mani game is on point. This season, why not layer up different colors and textures for a truly unique look - aka a nail cocktail? From nude and gold, to black and chrome, we've mixed up six different looks for inspiration. Cheers!
We know, a nude nail is not festive at all. But, layering a metallic or glitter hue on top can take your mani from the office to the party in a snap. Or, if you're feeling extravagent, rock gold glitter on metallic gold polish.
If red is too obvious of a choice for a holiday manicure (we agree) and pairing it with a green polish is cheesy (right, again), may we suggest adding a jewel-tone berry or purple hue to the mix? We love how a red glitter topcoat looks on top of a grape nail. Delicious!
Spending the holidays in a tropical climate? Try a blue sparkle on top of a snow white polish (or vice versa) . It will match your white, crochet bikini and feel festive at the same time!
Again, if you're looking for a more chic approach to rocking the iconic holiday colors, a teal and green is another cool combo. It reminds us of mermaids - and who doesn't want mermaid nails for the holidays?
If you think this black and chrome combo will look perfect with that LBD you just bought, you're absolutely right. The holidays may be merry and bright, but that doesn't mean you can move over to the dark side for a night.
If all else fails, glitter-on-glitter is the answer. Textured nails are huge this season and layering different sparkly formulas on top of eachother is not only extremely festive, but it'll get you psyched for that highly-anticipated New Years' Eve party you're going to. Plus, you won't have to wear any jewelry with all that bling!
