Adorable, elegant and oh-so-luxury, we’re in our heiress era. From indulgently rich scents to the best expensive-looking nail shades for the season, these days, we’re obsessed with the old money feel. And this winter-themed manicure that’s alpine resort-appropriate fits right in! Ski bunny nails will have you feeling ready for the slopes (or just the cozy restaurant bar)!
How to Get Ski Bunny Nails
@denver_manic
Think old money, but on a winter vacation. From inspired French tip designs to snow-storm shine, these manis are a high-femme take on the holidays. Instead of the rich, jewel-tone shades we typically associate with this time of year, ski bunny nails use the same tones that made rich girl nails, French tips, nude nails and soap nails so popular. These nails are a foray into wintery creams and soft pastels, where subtle shimmers and snowflake art add a seasonal element to old money favorites.
To accomplish this look, lean into “girly” colors like light pink and blue. The idea is to replicate the vibe of an heiress at a ski resort. So, if you’re picturing a luxury snow suit in all white or cream, you’re exactly where we want you to be.
The Shades We Love for the Look
The key to ski bunny nails is the color combination. Soft pastels, light shimmers and understated glitters are an excellent way to capture that ski resort vibe.
