Merlot Nails Are the Elegant Anti-Spring Nail Trend That Fashion Insiders Can't Get Enough Of
While there are numerous new nail trends available this season, there are specific manicures that many of us are drawn to as spring begins. From pastel French tips to milky nails, I tend to stick to familiar shades in April. This season, however, I'm looking to surprise my nail technician by opting for something different. A particular anti-spring nail trend has piqued my interest, and I’ve noticed several fashion insiders rocking this manicure. Typically associated with autumn and winter, it's also a very chic and sophisticated option for April and beyond. Curious about the nail trend I’m referring to? Let me introduce you to merlot nails.
As the name implies, this trend revolves around rich red and burgundy nail polishes. It often showcases a high-shine finish and looks stunning on both long and short nail shapes. This color pairs beautifully with the spring hues in your wardrobe (consider blues, browns, and creamy whites) and adds a refined touch to any ensemble. Below, I’ve compiled a selection of my favorite merlot manicures, so keep scrolling for inspiration...
