Dirty-Martini Nails Are Trending For Autumn
The "Dirty Martini" Nail Trend Is Perfect For Autumn
You may be firmly in the camp of never wanting summer to end, but there are a few things about autumn worth looking forward to. The change in the weather signifies that it's time to start packing away your denim shorts and switch out your brightly coloured wardrobe for a more muted palette with deeper, warmer colours — and that extends to your manicure. While we don't see minimalist trends like Hailey Bieber's glazed-doughnut nails or the '90s-inspired supermodel manicure going anywhere anytime soon, we're ready to start embracing earthier tones, and a new trend called "dirty martini" nails is the perfect way to do so.
The nail trend has seen tons of iterations all over social media, including tiny olive nail-art decals and even designs meant to mimic the actual martini glass. However, the most effortless take on the trend we've seen thus far is nails painted an all-over olive-green colour. Celebrities like Selena Gomez have recently been seen wearing a "dirty martini" manicure with an olive-green hue, and it's a shade that pairs perfectly with autumn's chunky knits and dark denim jeans.
This past year, green has definitely been having a moment. We've seen neon green, sage green, and even "bottega veneta" green each have their turn in the spotlight, and now it's time for the dirty-martini-inspired yellow-green hue to take its position at centre stage.
Whether you want to go all out and ask for olive nail art at your next salon appointment or you want to keep it simple with an all-over colour in the perfect green hue, the dirty-martini manicure has something for everyone. Keep scrolling for our favourite takes on the nail trend.
