If You Thought Burgundy Nails Were Chic, Wait Until You See Winter's Newest Manicure Trend

There are so many chic nail colours that come into style every autumn and winter. From deep reds to chocolate browns, it really is my favourite time of the year to treat myself to a manicure. One colour that I tend to go back to time and time again is burgundy. This deep hue makes my nails look so sophisticated, and it always compliments the darker tones in my autumn wardrobe. However, this season there's a new shade in town, and it's convincing me to swap out my usual choice and try something totally new.
Yep, this new shade has taken over the fashion world, and it seems to be making its way into the beauty world too, with Google Trends reporting a rise in searches for this particular manicure colour. That's right, I'm talking about the plum colour trend. This elegant hue sits somewhere between a bright purple and a deep burgundy, giving a fresh take on one of this season's most timeless manicure shades. It's just as versatile, pairing beautifully with black, brown, khaki and camel, so you don't need to worry about it clashing with your new winter buys.
Don't believe me? Below, I've rounded up a range of chic ways to wear the plum nail colour trend that will have you racing to the salon. So, what are you waiting for? Keep on scrolling for all the inspo you need...
