Black nails are absolutely timeless. In fact, I can’t even remember a time when this chic, sophisticated nail colour wasn’t in style. Not only is the deep, glossy shade perfect for autumn, but it will go with everything in your wardrobe and I guarantee that your manicure will always look polished when opting for this hue.
However, whenever I talk about my love for this nail colour, a lot of people ask me if there are different ways to wear the trend. As much as I love a simple black mani, we’ve all become a lot more experimental with our manicures over the past year, so I totally understand why people want to take their black nail polish to the next level.
Luckily for us, there are so many different ways to wear the trending nail colour this season. From black French tips to minimal nail art and even floral designs, I’ve spent the last few days looking at some of my favourite nail accounts on Instagram and I’ve rounded up some of the chicest black nail designs to wear this autumn. Interested? I thought so. Keep on scrolling and don’t forget to screenshot your favourite looks for your next trip to the salon…
