The Best Nail Colors for Brides

Every bride wants to look perfect on the big day, from the top of her hair to the tips of her nails. When you join hands with your groom during the wedding ceremony, what will your nails be wearing? There are no wrong answers, but there are some tried-and-true favorites. Check out these options for the big day!

 


Classic Nude

You can't go wrong with a pale neutral. It keeps the focus on your brand-new wedding band, and it never goes out of style! OPI's "Mimosas for Mr. and Mrs." works on every skin tone. 

Blushing Bride

Blush pink is the most feminine color there is, and Zoya's "Jordan" captures the moment with a subtle creamy finish. 

Royally Designed

When Kate Middleton - now Princess Catherine - wed Prince William in 2011, she had arguably the most photographed manicure in history. As legend has it, her nail artist combined Essie Ballet Slippers with Bourjois Rose Lounge to create a customized shade. 



Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, opted for a more opaque beige-pink neutral gel manicure. Her nail artist topped one coat of CND Shellac Unmasked with two coats of CND Shellac Negligee.



Something Blue

Something old, something new, something borrowed, and this blue hue! Pale blue has become a popular wedding color in recent years, and for good reason. It has enough color to be fun while being soft enough to be feminine and almost neutral. Your "something blue" can be your fingers and toes with Essie's Perfect Posture

 Back-to-school shopping has never been more fun than it is right now.

Mad About Plaid Shoes

If you were to map out the intersection of preppy style and Christmas cheer, you'd probably land right on richly-toned plaids. The classic print feels just right at the holidays, but it's understated enough to fit right in at a cocktail party or even at church on Christmas Eve.  Mary Janes // Booties // Pumps I curated these favorite pairs because they are budget-friendly and can go seamlessly from day to night. Plus, each of these comes in several different colorways. If deep reds, blues, and greens aren't your style, these shoes come in colors like soft neutral grays or even brighter patterns with more yellow in the fabric.  These pairs can elevate jeans to date night attire or turn a plain dress into a festive outfit.
