Your preferred nail shape andnail polish color can say a lot about you.
Plus, there are always trends that are waiting to be tried.
Luckily, we have the sweater nail looks that’ll make you want to book your next manicure today.
An accent nail is an easy way to dip your toes into a new look.
Its simplicity makes for a fun DIY manicure.
A neutral color polish keeps the design minimalistic while adding a touch of warmth.
All you need for these sweater stripes are a thin brush or a toothpick.
In our inspiration photo, the pink cable knit pattern contrasts the deep white french tips.
The glitter accent creates a smooth transition between the two elements.
If pink and glitter are toobarbiecorefor your taste, feel free to personalize this style with your favorite colors.
Stand out with two-tone sweater nails
Traditional sweater nails use one color polish for the knitting decal.
The monochrome look mimics a pullover with a single-color yarn.
However, who needs to follow tradition?
Two-tone sweater nails pop.
The base coat provides a smooth backdrop for the detailing polish to stand out.
Nail artists throw hearts, dots, and swirls into their sweater designs for a truly unique look.
For this cozy trend, fit together your favorite figures or let your nail technician do it for you.
A cozy twist on French tips
French manicures are never going out of style.
They are forever on trend and are the perfect pairing for any nail art.
For this sweater detail, you could stick to the classic white strip or go wild.
French tips don’t have to mean straight across your nail’s edge.
The sweater trend adds a hint of warmth and contrast to that winterfairycore aesthetic.
A touch of the cable knit pattern is all you need, like in our inspiration photo.
The white sweater details are sealed in the French tip, bundled with snowflakes and glitter.
Its clear backdrop for the knitting details also creates a glass nail effect.
This look emphasizes the cold, wintery feel.
Mix and match patterns with flannel
You don’t have to be a lumberjack to rock flannel.
Although the pattern has a homey vibe, fashion features editor Laura Hawkins says it can easily be elevated.
The stripe pattern can also be highlighted as a companion to sweater nails.
The flannel look goes hand-in-hand with the cable knit design.
The duo fashion statement will bring extra coziness to your winter nails.
The subtle design of the sweater nails lets you play with color without the art becoming overwhelming.
Whether earthy greens or bright oranges, gradient sweater nails are our favorite.
Rib patterns are a popular knitting stitch that fits perfectly into the sweater nails trend.
Rib nail art is easy to DIY and sets you apart from the rope style of cable knit.
It doesn’t get more cozy than that.
However, now you’ll be thinking about your next manicure.
This is another sweater style that breaks free from the traditional cable knit pattern.
This cross-stitch sweater nail art lends itself to any design.
Stick to the winter theme with white snowflakes, orcelebrate spring with bright colors.
Argyle is in style with sweater nails
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
However, we’re not talking about sticking rhinestones on your nails, we’re talking about argyle.
The rhombus pattern is a popular sweater print.
It fits into therom-comcore aesthetic, golfer vibe, and now your nail designs.
The multiple colors of argyle let you mix and match earthy tones for added warmth.
Abstract designs for the artist in all of us
Abstract nails are creativity at its max.
The example above mixes the sweater nail trend with the hot chocolate nail trend for extra winter glee.
The play with negative space highlights the intricate sweater detail while offering a natural look.
It’s a twist on the French manicure, too.
That’s why our nail appointment is booked.
