There is nothing that will get you right into the Christmas spirit quite like a fresh set of nails. There is something truly special about going to the salon and having your autumn nail art replaced with a Christmas pattern, and it is guaranteed to get you feeling festive.

One of the best base colors for a set of Christmas nails is white. White represents so many different things, from the purity of the Virgin Mary to the crisp fall of the first snow in winter. On top of that, it really just is a brilliant color.
So, if you are looking for the perfect inspiration for your festive white Christmas nails, you are in the right place. Keep on reading for 20+ festive white Christmas nail designs that are perfect for the holiday season!
1. White And Nude
The first design that we would recommend is this classy white and nude design. There is something about a nude and white nail combination that makes it look really fancy, and this design is even more special because of the Christmas inspiration behind it.
If you want a set of nails that will see you through the holiday season into winter, then this set is perfect. It has a Christmas design without being too Christmassy, and that is why we love this nail design so much!
2. White And Silver
Another wonderful color combination for Christmas nails is white and silver. This color combination is perfect for the winter months, and a great option if you have lots of parties and functions over the festive period.

So, they are a perfect choice if you want Christmas nails, but don’t want to have your nails re-done immediately after the holiday season.
