It’s hard to believe 2023 will be completely over in a few weeks. But, with every end, there comes a new beginning that deserves to be celebrated in style. You’ve probably planned your holiday outfits and equally festive makeup down to a T. Maybe you’ve found the perfect sequin dress to wear with a smoky eye or a gorgeous gown that will make a red lip pop. Regardless of your vibe, no look is complete without a fresh set of New Year’s nails.
If there’s one thing 2023 taught us, it’s that there’s a manicure out there that will suit every personal style. Sparkling designs and metallic polish are go-to looks for the holidays, but you don’t have to bedazzle your nails to be festive. There are plenty of party-ready options to choose from. Minimalists, for example, can lean into delicate nail art and soft ombré styles. Those who love a bold look can embrace full-on bling with a disco ball-inspired manicure.
