Say goodbye to earthy Virgo season — because the angelic vibes of Libra season are here, and will continue to reign from Sept. 23 through Oct. 22.
Libras are air signs that are charming, balanced, and adore a classically beautiful aesthetic. Ruled by the planet Venus, which owns love and serenity, their romantic energy truly shines and adds to their innate beauty and charisma. These folks are represented by the balanced scales, which symbolize their natural fairness and diplomacy.
Aesthetically, Libras are all things soft — so they love airy nail polish colors like pale pink, pastel blue, sweet lavender, and cloud-like whites and creams. When they opt for nail art, traditional French (or micro French) tips are likely a go-to, along with romantic motifs like delicate ribbons, clouds, marbled designs, and fluttering butterfly wings.
For some mani inspo, look to Libra queen Bella Hadid’s recent soft lavender chrome nails, or October-born Kim Kardashian’s strawberry milk set.
