Sofia Richie and Hailey Bieber Just Revived This Classic Nail Colour For Autumn

If there's one colour that I am seeing everywhere at the moment, it's red. Not just any red either, but a bold, fiery shade that is sure to make a statement. If you've read our guide to autumn 2023 colour fashion trends, then you'll know that this shade has been all over the runway. In fact, 'fiery red' was featured in Pantone's A/W23 trend report, and it's quickly making its way into the beauty world, too.
That's right, I'm talking about trending nail colours. If you happened to be on Instagram over the weekend, then you'll have spotted that both Hailey Bieber and Sofia Richie Grainge were sporting fiery red nails for separate occasions, and it's safe to say that this classic manicure colour is having a huge revival this autumn.
Hailey made sure that her fiery red mani matched her outfit, pairing her nails with a bold red mini dress and fun, strawberry-shaped earrings. Meanwhile, Sofia chose to mix different shades of red, and could be seen pairing her bright red mani with a deep burgundy top and matching handbag.
If you ask me, you can never go wrong with a classic red manicure. Not only is it the perfect colour for the autumn and winter months, but I happen to think that it compliments most outfits, as you can easily mix and match different hues just like Sofia.
