Still wearing nude nails? Meet your new favourite nail shade

Forget nude. Step aside red. Purple is the nail shade we're lusting after
Edward Urrutia

It’s true, we had some good times with oxblood red, our affair with nude even lasted a few seasons.

But this winter we return to our one hue love – inky tones of purples and blues. It’s time to get back to (almost) black with intense nero shades that show just a hint of colour. 

Here are some of the shades we love (pictured, clockwise from right, above)

ESSIE Nail Lacquer in Midnight Cami, $16.95

CHANEL Le Vernis in Roubachka, $41

GUERLAIN Vernis À Ongles Nail Enamel in Black Perfecto, $36
