White Manicures Are Moving From Summer To Fall This Year - How To Style It

White nails are a staple, and that doesn't change because of the seasons. This is because the look is effortlessly crisp, clean, and easy to do. While it's common to think of white nail polish as a "summertime nail," the color looks just as amazing against the earth tones that come with fall, and even into the colder winter months. While it might seem boring to some, there are enough variants of white nails to wear throughout the whole season. White nail polish goes with every aesthetic, from old money to mermaidcore. The nail color can be left alone as a solid base or covered in designs and it will still be considered equally as striking.

The most important part of having white nails is to have quality nail polish. White nails show every detail, so you do not want to get a polish that creates a streaky look. If you're not confident enough to do your white nails yourself, head to the nail salon for a professional service (and bring along these inspo pictures with you!). 

A soft manicure

Believe it or not, there are multiple types of white nail colors, and a great option is soft white. Soft white is an acrylic color that is slightly darker than the true white you may be accustomed to. The color can be described best as a milky white that works perfectly with earthy fall tones.

Create an abstract design

If white feels like a stark color to wear for the fall, consider using it to create an abstract design. White is so striking that when placed on a nude base, it creates a stunning nail that has a unique appeal. When looking into abstract designs, it's a good idea to bring a reference photo to your nail technician so that you get the exact look you want.

For those who love nail designs, take your white manicure up a notch by adding glitter. This extra touch creates an amazing look that pops against the white base. While there is a myriad of glitter colors to choose from, silver glitter looks amazing against a white polish or acrylic.
