There you have it, 14 fabulous New Years nail designs for every taste and for every skill. What I love the most about New Year’s nails is that there’s so much room for experiments! You’re free to use any colours and create any patterns, as long as your manicure has a touch of sparkle it will certainly qualify as New Year’s.

As for me, I’ll do something abstract or try the freehand New Year’s clock manicure this year. It depends on how much time I’ll have to get ready for the biggest party of the year ;) make sure you follow me on Instagram, to see our New Year’s adventures and of course, my mani.
