Polka dots are a fun and cute trend for winter nails. Chrome dots add a soft sparkle on nude nails, and shades like red, green, and icy blue make the look feel festive. In summer, we loved bright polka dot nails, and now in winter, the playful style is still strong.

Polka dots work well for holiday designs because you can choose classic red and green or try brown, berry, or chrome for something new. You can also change the dot size. Small dots look cute on French tips, and mixing big and small dots makes the design more fun. Here are 15 winter polka dot ideas you can save for your next nail appointment or try at home.
