We Identified the 9 It Nail Colors for 2022, and Yep, They're Ridiculously Good
I don't know about you, but I never get nail fatigue. In fact, as much as I love buying new makeup, switching up my skincare routine, or trying something different with my hair, shifting my nail M.O. reigns supreme. Painting my nails has become my happy place, and while I absolutely love the boost a shiny new color gives my mood and confidence, the actual process of painting my nails—or even going to the salon—is one of my favorite ways to wind down and turn the world off for a second. You know what I mean?
I don't typically buy into trends when it comes to my mani of choice (I'll paint my nails any hue I damn well please, thank you very much), but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in finding out which nail colors will pop more than others in 2022. (I love some inspiration, after all.) To get the 411, I reached out to two top nail pros for their predictions on which nail colors will eclipse all other next year. Below, find nine popular nail colors for 2022 to consider for your next paint job. Keep scrolling!
"A clean, soft white that gives a sense of simplicity and inner peace will be big in 2022," shares celebrity manicurist Sigourney Nuñez. "My favorite soft white right now is Perfect Pearl from Pleasing.""Think of this as a new take on a nude that's brighter than your classic tan," notes Nuñez. "This shade will give a soft, upbeat feeling to a traditional muted nude mani. My personal favorite right now is Essie's Expressie in Fueled Up.""A gentle and powdery take on a staple shade," continues Nuñez. "My favorite right now is Granny’s Pink Pearls by Pleasing—it even has a pearlescent finish." (Editor's note: You can nab the shade when you buy Pleasing's entire set below!)"Although it's not quite a 'color' per se, nail polish toppers will be the dark horse of polish shades next year," says Nuñez. "Pleasing’s Pearly Tops, for example, is a clear polish with a subtle iridescence that dries to a matte finish. It can be worn alone for a subtle effect, or you can apply it over your favorite shade and watch it transform. Another favorite topper is gold. You can add a hint of metallic finish to any shade by layering it on top. My favorite one is Gold Flake Taco by Holo Taco.""I love this creamy shade of celadon from Smith & Cult," shares celebrity nail artist and Founder of Nails of LA, Brittney Boyce."I think we'll be seeing colors that are opaque and pigmented rather than sheer.""In general, warm, bright shades will be big in 2022—whether it's green, blue, orange, or lilac," adds Boyce. "For blue, I'm loving It's Brittney, Beach by Orly.""Colors will tend to run on the warmer side to be more universally flattering across skin tones," says Boyce. "A rich shade of olive—green will be so big in 2022—is a great option.""Sand tones, rather than a typical light pink–based neutral, will trend in 2022," notes Boyce. (Maybe consider retiring your collection of baby pink?)According to Boyce, the 2022 way to do purple will be creamy, opaque, and lilac-esque. Vertigo, a sold-out shade from Machine Gun Kelly's new brand UN/DN Laqr, is her top pick, but we found a few other options you can get your hands on now.Next: We're Just Going to Say It: These 13 Polish Brands Rival a Salon Manicure
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
