Seasonal red colour

Red is one of the best colors to use on old nails, and fortunately, this color is also suitable for fall and winter!

Maroon manicure

Not only does this dark red color add a luxurious feel to your look, but it's also perfect for any festive event – from Thanksgiving dinner to strolling through a Christmas light display.

Sultry sangria

I love this dark, rich color, and I suggest a nail color like this for a polished, finished look this fall.

Clean girl crimson

If you're looking for a vibrant red color, I recommend this gorgeous crimson paint. Wear with oval nails for a bold, feminine aesthetic.

Mahogany mane

I think this color is perfect for fall! It adds a touch of color while the brown undertones give it a neutral aesthetic, meaning it can pair well with classic, vintage clothing.

Ruby red

A jewel tone like the one above is one of my favorite colors for bright, sophisticated nails this fall or winter. I love that this design serves as a casual, clean girl look and festive nails!

Rich red wine

If you ask me, stunning red nail polish is perfect for transforming short nails into something eye-catching and elegant. Although this shade would look great on long nails!

Cold weather clean girl

Classic designs are perfect for any season. I've included both timeless old money nails and a few manicures in cool-weather colors for an extra seasonal touch in the list below.

Autumn French

French tips are the epitome of a timeless old money look, and I love this gorgeous brown color instead of the classic white paint for a seasonal touch.

Classic beauty

Short, clean nails with a shiny finish are a great way to create a clean-girl look. You can also choose a shiny nude look with longer nails to create a more feminine look.

Chocolate mani

Chocolate brown nail polish works well for a clean, neutral vintage look, and of course, this color is a classic choice for fall.

French manicure with almonds

I love the soft and delicate look of the oval French fringe, and I suggest choosing this design for luxurious, calm, bright and feminine nails.

Unlike the French

Make your old nails more modern and unique by pairing reverse French tips with a soft pink polish. If you want to create a warmer look, replace the natural pink with a basic beige.

Milky pink nails

Pastel pink nails are absolutely stunning, and while pastel colors are very popular in the spring, this color can easily elevate a winter ensemble.

There are hardly any French

Barely French tips on classic square nails combine modern beauty with timeless designs.

Nude pink

If you want to impress a clean girl look at a dinner party this fall or winter, light pink nails are a tried and true option!

Mocha manicure

Give your everyday outfits a touch of seasonal flair with mocha-colored nails. Perfect for both fall and winter, this warm, neutral color is one of my favorite picks on this list!

Milky white almond nails

Timeless French advice

French women are considered fashion icons for a reason -So when in doubt, OG French tip nails are always my go-to! The square shape and warm nude base are essential for this classic look.

Little taste

Looking for a bolder vintage nail? Add a fun touch or a little sparkle to your old nails with the ideas below!

Pearlescent finish

I love how a pearlescent topcoat can add an elegant shimmer to any color. These vintage nails are gentle and delicate with a soft feminine touch.

Silver tips

I think these are perfect as a stylish Christmas nail design! The shiny silver tips have a holiday feel, but are simple and sophisticated enough to fall into the clean girl category.

Jewel details

Similar to the sparkly French accents above, the gem detailing here adds a touch of glamor and is perfect as a simple, chic winter manicure. Want to make it more fall-friendly? Use a neutral, warmer nail polish, such as a classic beige, nude or soft taupe.

Glazed donut nails

Glazed donut nails are definitely a popular choice, but I think they still have a vintage chic vibe. Plus, the icy look of these nails gives them a great winter aesthetic.

Sparkling milky nails

And last on the list of vintage nails is this beautiful manicure that features an elegant shine. I think this is another excellent choice for winter since the sparkly details resemble snow, and the glitter has an undeniable holiday vibe.
