The Best Black & Gold Nails

1. Gold Mine

Just like finding a glimmer of gold in a dark mine, this manicure features splodges of gold against a shiny black base color.

2. Heart Of Gold

Maybe not quite a heart of gold, but a black heart doesn’t sound as romantic. This black and gold nail art design would also make a great accent nail for those who aren’t experimental with their nail art.

3. Gold Strike

This is a classic black and gold nail art design that you’ve probably seen on Pinterest at some point. This features a couple of accent nails with an exposed nail bed and gold outline to show the contrast between the black polish.

4. Black French

Rather than a basic black French tip, a great way to glam it up is with crystals and gold metallic nail art like this.

5. Gold Star

Stars are a great fall and winter nail art design, not least because the weather gets colder, the skies get darker, and the actual stars seem to get brighter.

6. Dipped In Gold

This abstract nail art is one for all the minimalist girlies. It toes the line between beauty and jewelry and will look particularly great if you’re one for gold-tone jewelry.

7. Gatsby Girl

Something about the combination of black, white, and gold feels particularly Gatsby-esque. The design doesn’t need to be too bold. A fresh take on the French manicure is all you need!

8. Sparkle Sandwich

A sparkle sandwich is reminiscent of a halo eyeshadow look, featuring a matter shadow either side of the eye, with a glitter or metallic shadow in the middle.

9. Gold River

This bright gold manicure is great for a special event or party, as it blends in for an evening look as well as the daytime. To amp up the glam factor, add the gold detailing on all nails.

10. Gold Spill

This gold spill nail art design would be an easy at-home manicure. Simply swipe some black polish on a French manicure and add some splodges of gold on the edge of the manicure.
