How is it almost December already? I know everyone says it, but I really can’t believe how quickly this year has gone. Suddenly I’ve got a flurry of Christmas party invitations, and between choosing what to wear and what presents to bring, I’m feeling a little bit stressed. However, one thing I don’t have to be stressed about is my pedicure. This year I decided to be a lot more prepared when it came to my beauty appointments, as I knew that when the festive season rolled around it would be time to dust off my sparkly heels and get the toes out. I’ve already got my pedicure booked in for next week, so all that’s left to do is choose the right colour.
I don’t know about you, but I never really know what to go for around this time of year. Sure, there are plenty of glittery, festive-themed colours out there, but I always prefer something a little more paired back to add a chic finishing touch to my look. After spending hours scrolling on Instagram, I’ve come up with a solid list of party pedicure colours that I believe are fun and sophisticated all at the same time. So, if you’ve also started prepping for a busy month ahead, keep on scrolling and use my guide to the best party pedicure colours as an easy point of reference for your next appointment…
First up is this gorgeous, rich burgundy shade. I think that this colour makes your pedicure look so expensive, and it’s subtle enough to go with a range of outfits.
Whenever I wear this shade I tend to opt for a high-shine, glossy finish to help make it pop a little bit more.
Chanel really have created the perfect burgundy nail polish.
If you prefer a burgundy colour with hints of red, Essie have got you covered.
Nailberry polishes are great as they are a lot kinder to your nails, and I love this shade for winter.
If you want to make a little bit more of a statement this season, I am currently obsessed with electric blue nails. If you have a bright, colourful outfit to wear, this is definitely the pedicure to go for.
This nail polish will definitely earn you lots of compliments.
Add a little sparkle thanks to OPI.
If you want something a bit more subtle, a deeper, navy blue should do the trick.
You didn’t think I’d do a festive pedicure roundup without including a classic red shade, did you? You simply cannot go wrong with this timeless colour.
What I love most about this colour is that it works anytime of year, so you don’t have to worry about switching your pedicure up when January rolls around.
The perfect red shade (and affordable too)!
Price shown is member price. I’ll be wearing this on Christmas Day.
Essie have done it again with this bold red colour.
For those of you who like something super subtle, say hello to the naked nail trend. I’ve seen everyone opting for more natural manicures and really focusing on keeping their nails looking neat and healthy, and I think it’s time to embrace more natural pedicures too.
First, shape your nails with a nail file to get a polished finish.
Apply a hydrating oil to your cuticles too!
This foot cream is great as it gently exfoliates to leave your skin feeling silky soft.
If I’m ever stuck on what to go for, I opt for a classic black shade. Not only does this colour go with every single thing in my wardrobe, but it looks super elevated and chic.
This quick drying nail polish will have you ready for your party in no time.
For a real treat, opt for this Gucci polish.
I love a shiny finish, so I will be giving this OPI colour a go.
