One of my absolute favorite nail colors to wear for all seasons but especially Fall/winter is gold. I love gold polish shades that are light, metallic and opaque – shades like these are classy and sophisticated but also trendy. If you’re looking for something a little more flashy for a fun night out, there are gold polishes that are super pigmented, featuring shimmer and glitter. Another fabulous way to add a little bling to your manicure this holiday season is to add a topcoat with chunky gold glitter over your other favorite polishes.
Whether you like to go for a full-on gold manicure like me or prefer just a gold accent nail or a few nail art accents, here are 10 new gorgeous gold nail polishes worth trying out this season!
1. Dior Nail Enamel in Gold Equinoxe ($27, limited edition) – It’s glitzy and glamorous, but also subtle enough to be worn every day! And the bottle itself is swoonworthy!
