1. Espresso shot
Match your nails to your coffee—this earthy manicure idea is perfect for winter. Get a hold of white nail polish along with your favourite shade of brown. Start with a transparent base coat and proceed to create a mix of wavy lines and French nail art for an abstract look. Finish with a glossy topcoat, and your nails are good to go.

2. Classic French nails
French manicures have always been in trend. They are the go-to choice and have witnessed many twists and modifications to the OG. Start with simple French tips and then add that x-factor with a curved line just below it to create a double French manicure. If you’re going to be a winter bride and are looking for a minimal yet trendy nail idea, the double French manicure is the one for you.
3. Icy cool
Channel your inner Elsa with this snow-themed manicure that will make you feel no less than a Disney princess. Apply a generous coat of light blue nail polish, once it is dry, follow up with a layer of glitter nail polish. For an extra twist, consider using snowflake nail stickers instead of glitter nail polish.

4. Peach fuzz
As we all know, Peach Fuzz is the Pantone colour of the year, so it had to make it to our list of nail ideas. To get this look, start with a transparent or nude base coat, then apply peach nail polish from the tip to the middle for a half-and-half look. Once it dries, take a fine brush and dot your way to a minimal floral design.
