And so, with Swift and Kelce’s wedding reportedly imminent, what will she choose for her bridal nails?
Looking at the current trends among contemporary brides, and those with summer wedding dates like Swifts, the going look is a simple, sheer gloss: it’s understated and eternally chic. At the same time, brides continue to look for ways to add their own personal touches and style points to their big day—and everyone knows Swift likes to weave an Easter egg or two into her looks.
Nail artist Nicole Marien predicts Swift will opt for a “classic bridal manicure with a modern twist.”
“I think sheer pinks, milky nudes, or a soft chrome finish will make an appearance, which screams elegance, timelessness, and fits perfectly with her style,” she adds. “Although she does love a statement manicure, wedding nails tend to be all about longevity, and I think she’ll want something she can look back on and still feel just as beautiful in 20 years. A subtle shimmer, minimal French, or an icy glazed finish would be the perfect balance between classic and personal.” If Marien was creating the look for Swift, she calls out The GelBottle’s classic BIAB shades, such as BIAB 019 paired with Iced Chrome Pigment, to create a soft, elegant combination that feels both timeless and now, while still retaining a sense of personality for the girl who loves a fresh set.
Below, a few predictions for what Taylor Swift’s bridal manicure may look like—and maybe some inspiration for yours, too.
