Dainty and ladylike: For the ultimate girly girl who wants sparkle and shine, try turning to a pale pink shade for a base coat. Top off your candy-coloured pastel polish with a series of nail gems or glittering faux rhinestones. As you count down to midnight, your nails will help you shimmer your way into a brand new year.

Glitter and dark tones: With Christmas infusing beauty looks everywhere with crimson and evergreen shades, New Year’s Eve offers an opportunity to sport glittery, vampy hues. Play up solid black nail polish with gobs of silver glitter, and allow your nails to shine.

Stiletto tips and violet colour: Take your cues from this particular example, and start off by filing your nails into sharp almond points. Meanwhile, alternating shades of pale mauve and glittery violet help to create a contrasting effect. Sparkling polish completes the look, and transforms an otherwise understated mani into glamorous nighttime talons.
