Long, gorgeous almond nails are beautiful with a white chrome finish. As Glamour magazine puts it, the chrome finish “gives the shade a glow-up.

These simple nails have a classy appeal yet make a statement. You can also rock a design like this on long coffin nails for a similar vibe with a bit more edge.

This is one of my favorite white Christmas nails on this list! I love the milky white base with a shimmering topcoat. And if that’s not enough for simple but stunning holiday nails, the ornament accent keeps it minimal but festive. 

Snowman Nail Design

Dots of white snow are so cute, and I love the French tips as piles of fresh snow. The snowman is a perfect accent, making this manicure a chic holiday nail design with a fun finish. 

Dotted Snowflakes

Glossy nude pink nails are lovely with a feminine flair, while the dotted snowflakes add those Christmas vibes we want. I suggest recreating this mani if you want something seasonal but classy for a formal event this winter.
