Delightful lace

You already see lace on everything, so why not try it on your nails? These fuss-free polish strips won’t leave you stressing about chips. Just stick on and trim down for seriously unique and so-pretty tips.

These snow-inspired sweeties will hold you over till the real flakes start falling. You could wear one at a time, but these would look classy paired together in a moon manicure. Do this by painting a half-moon shape base on the bottom of your nail, and the rest of your nail in a different color. Hint: putting those sticky circular reinforcements over the moon part makes painting the rest of your nails easier!

Glam green

Green polishes are big around the holiday season, but instead of a standard-issue kelly green, try this jewel tone polish. It’s more muted than your average Christmas-tree green, but still packs a whole lot of color, making it great for events like your Mom’s holiday work party. Our fave way to rock this shade? Paint four tips in green, and paint the last one gold for a sparkly, gold-dipped effect. How festive!

Sweet stripes

Candy canes galore! This holiday treat is just as sweet on your nails and is totally festive. Since making stripes can be difficult, try painting your entire nail white and then painting on red stripes diagonally with a toothpick or a thin paint brush.
