Trend Alert: Jade Nails

Essie Mint Candy Apple polish

While we’ve always been fans of timeless nail polishes, every once in a while we like to switch up our routines and try something fashion-forward or fun from the runways.

This season, we’re craving the highly covetable jade nails that Chanel sent down their fall runways. The commanding minty shade accompanied almost every look in the collection and gave off an effortlessly cool impression that’s quite unexpected – and therefore all the more stylish – for a frosty season. Of course, everyone followed suit and created their own version of this extremely fashionable shade (our favorite – as always! – is from Essie, and is called Mint Candy Apple). Wear it on short, square nails with head-to-toe black and white (pleats and ruffles optional) to emulate the exact look of the runways.
