11 Wintery Velvet Nail Ideas for a Plushy Manicure

Velvet is one of those textiles that exude luxury. It's because of this that we're so glad the fabric finish has translated to nails. Using glittery, semi-metallic polish helps you instantly achieve a luxe finish that looks just like the fuzzy material. While this design looks stunning year-round, it's an incredibly fitting manicure idea for winter. Ahead, you'll find 11 velvet nail looks perfect for the festive and chilly months.

01 Sheer Winter Velvet Nails

Let this be a prime example of how beautiful velvet nails can be and how little effort they require. 

02 Pink and Plum Swirl Nails

This pink and plum velvet swirl nail look reminds us of a festive version of Jennifer Garner's 13 Going on 30 dress. Given the various colors and swirls, this is one nail look that will be best achieved at the salon.

03 Pink and Brown Velvet Nails

This pink, brown, and silver velvet manicure is subtle yet so chic. It's the perfect neutral glam nail look.

04 Pink and Silver Velvet Sweater Nails

If you love a literal nail design, this sweater-inspired mani will fit your fancy. It's an incredibly on-trend winter manicure, thanks to its dual-finish, matte-velvet appeal.

05 Blue Velvet Snowflake Nails

Let it be known that snowflakes look beautiful on blue velvet nails, too. If you prefer classic nail designs, consider opting for decorated French tips instead of fully-decked-out nails.

06 Gold Heart Velvet Nails

Valentine's Day falls in winter, which means this gold heart-dotted velvet nail look is worth keeping in mind.

07 Pinkish-Red Velvet Star Nails

We love the look of this pinkish-red velvet mani. The subtle gold stars and rhinestones make it even more eye-catching. 

08 Blue Heart Velvet Nails

If you're a sucker for nail art, you'll enjoy this multicolored velvet nail look. The inverted heart design is hard not to ogle over.

09 Solid Champagne Velvet Nails

A simple, solid velvet manicure is stunning on its own. 

10 Velvet Star Nails

Add a few stars to the mix for a kitschy, rocker-chic velvet mani. You can hand-paint them using white nail polish or use nail stickers instead.

11 Olive Green Velvet Nails

If you prefer more detailed nail looks, consider this mani. We love the contrast between the clear mani accents and olive velvet sections.
