We love an espresso manicure, and Naomi Watts proves essie's Odd Squad is the way to get it

Naomi Watts is pictured with a wavy bob hairstyle and wearing an olive green blazer, a white t-shirt and large sunglasses at the Tod's fashion show during the Milan Womenswear Spring/Summer 2026 on September 26, 2025 in Milan, Italy/ in a beige template alongside a product shot of essie's Odd Squad nail polish (which is a dark, coffee brown), and a brown nail polish spill.

Naomi Watts' short, coffee-brown nails are exactly the sort of chic and cosy manicure we've been craving this season, and it turns out, this low-maintenance essie polish was behind it.

While the 2025 nail trends have kept us fully supplied with inspiration over the last few months - with juicy sorbet nails and dainty polka dot nails, to name just a few - when cooler weather hits, we find ourselves returning to the classics. That said, autumn/winter can also be quite a busy time, with the festive period looming and chillier weather making the idea of venturing outdoors for a nail appointment not that appealing. Thankfully, that's where traditional, air-drying polishes really come in handy, as they offer a quick wash of colour in minutes.
