It's officially time to start trading those summery brights for cosy autumnal tones, with Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, having inspired us with her own chic, chocolatey manicure.
While the 2026 nail trends have thrown a few curveballs at us this year, there are always a handful of looks that are guaranteed to return each season. In the spring, it's pastel pinks, the summer, juicy sorbet nails; and in the autumn, rich burgundies and browns. The latter, in fact, is already creeping back in, with Duchess Sophie herself having just been photographed with the classic - and may we say, incredibly luxe-looking - nail colour.
