Whether it’s a holiday dinner party, a date night to see The Nutcracker, or a visit to Grandma’s house, these occasions call for looking your best from head—to toe. We’re here to help with the latter. Whether your feet stay nestled in socks or are warming bare by the fire, you’ll be filled with that much more joy with a fresh pedicure.
“Winter is a great opportunity to treat your feet,” says Sonya Belakhlef, a New York City-based nail artist, who adds that the cold months are the perfect time to try a pedicure color that’s outside your comfort zone. “Since [your toes] won’t be on display much in the coming months, why not try a new exciting shade?”
Beauty looks transition from bright and bubbly to dark and moody for fall and winter, and pedicure colors are no exception. “The season begins with deeper, richer colors like wine reds with brown undertones and warm espresso brown that feel cozy,” says Amy Ling Lin, founder of Sundays, a New York City-based nail studio and polish brand.
But this winter won’t be all about gloomy shades. It is the holiday season, after all. Expect to see festive colors like gold and pearly white, too. “This winter will be about being in our glowy champagne era,” says Cyndi Ramirez-Fulton, founder of Chillhouse nail salon. Belakhlef also predicts people will be leaning into navy blue and milky white polishes on their toes.
Ahead, discover the winter pedicure colors experts can’t get enough of this season.
Merlot
Dark reds always trend in the colder months, but Lin says burgundy with brown and black undertones will be a particularly popular pedicure color this season. We love Dazzle Dry Nail Lacquer in Merlot, which has chocolate undertones and an ever-so-subtle shimmer. TenOverTen Market nail polish is also a stunning deep cherry. Just be mindful that it looks lighter in the bottle than it does on your toes. Sarah Chue, a Los Angeles-based nail artist, says Dior Vernis Nuit is her go-to vampy red shade. “It’s very rich and wine-y.”
Snowy White
Nothing beats the feeling of waking up to freshly fallen snow, so why not match the vibe with an equally glistening pedicure? This extra-bright white stands out against your skin, while also complementing your wintery outfit.
