The Classiest Manicures Always Have This Simple Element (I Asked the Pros)

I know cool-toned silver jewelry has a strong hold on the fashion set right now, but I will forever and always be a gold gal. I’m always somehow adorned in the precious metal, be it a dainty chain, chunky pair of earrings, or chic stack of rings. Each is just so chic and timeless, especially paired with an equally elegant gold manicure.

Don’t scoff just yet! You might associate gold nail polish with New Year’s Eve festivities or other costumey garb, but gold actually looks so elevated for everyday nail looks. Just like jewelry, gold polish can be dainty, bold, kitschy, and everything in between. “I wear my jewelry every day, so I think it’s the same thing—nails are accessories after all,” agrees celebrity nail artist Julie Kandalec. “I do think they are a timeless option for any and every season.”
