The unexpected nail color we're wearing this spring

From her viral selfie photo that has completely taken over the internet to her Hot Mess podcast, if there’s one thing Alix Earle can do, it’s capture our attention. It was only a matter of time before one of Earle’s nail colors went super viral, and in fact, we’re obsessed with the dark, chocolate brown nails she recently sported. This “Chocolate Nails” trend is one of those classic brown nail shades that goes with everything and looks good on every skin tone, and it’s also having a big hit right now. This mocha shade will be an instant favorite of anyone who loves darker neutrals on their nails but wants to stand out from the usual “Lincoln Park after dark” or “You don’t know Jacques” look.

Luckily for us, Earle isn’t holding back on her latest manicure color. Her glossy chocolate mani uses Essie’s Odd Squad color, the star of her Odd Squad collection of versatile shades that will make your manicure stand out. While dark brown may seem like an unconventional choice for the start of spring, think of Earle’s Nails as a reminder that while it’s the start of floral and pastel season, it’s also the return of another very important season: coastal cowgirl season . In fact, this is the perfect nail color to wear your cowgirl boots and Texas Hold ‘Em belt. Read on to learn how to get Earle’s exact look.

Here's how to get the look

In her nail color TikTok video, Alix decided to bring her bottle of Essie Odd Squad to the salon. However, you can achieve the look just as well at home with your own bottle (or another deep chocolate brown color) and a quality top coat. The Essie polish is only $10, and given the timelessness of a truly neutral color like this, the bottle will last for many months. Finally, this chocolate brown hue might be perfect for the coastal cowgirl spring and summer, but its cozy appeal means it can also be worn in the colder months or year-round if you want to go all out old money too.

Green is one of those extremely versatile nail polish colors that can be easily worn and re-worn depending on the season. From kelly greens that usher in spring to darker tones in winter, the possibilities are endless with this color – it suits every skin tone, nail shape and length, and is perfect for getting ice cream nails image. It’s the kind of nail color that gives you a little hit of dopamine throughout the day because it’s just perfect. Whether you choose earthy or neon, sage or olive colors, green nails are guaranteed to give you just the right amount of witchy vibes.
