I’m Bored of My Burgundy Nails—This Is the Rich-Looking Dark Colour I’m Trying Next
During this time of year, a lot of us opt for darker colours on our nails. Perhaps we are trying to match with the dreary weather, or we want a manicure to compliment our winter wardrobes, but whatever it is, there's no denying that these darker shades grow in popularity from November onwards until spring hits. From deep chocolate brown to elegant burgundy and classic black, there is definitely a handful of nail polishes that I see on repeat this season, and I always find myself switching between these colours every couple of weeks.
However, I've recently noticed more and more people searching for forest green nail designs, and after doing some research into the trend, I think it might be the chicest dark nail polish alternative to try this season. Not only is this shade perfect for this time of year, but it has such an expensive-looking finish thanks to the glossy green hue. Plus, it will still compliment your winter colour palette while bringing something new and exciting to your look.
Not yet convinced? Below I've rounded up some of my favourite forest green manicures that I am desperate to recreate this year. Trust me, after seeing these, you'll be racing to the salon...

No matter what your nail shape, a forest green polish will instantly elevate your manicure.
This colour looks particularly good with a high-shine finish.
Just. So. Chic.
The perfect winter hue.
