Kerry Washington’s Gold-Dipped French Tips Are in a Whole New Tax Bracket — See Photos

While we love an over-the-top red carpet manicure, it seems like our favorite celebs are all about the little details lately. And admittedly, these more subdued yet nuanced colors and designs have us in a chokehold. We’ve been seeing pale, natural shades on Kim Kardashian’s trimmed nails, and mother-to-be Rihanna recently flaunted a similar short mani. We’re partial to a twist on the French manicure, too: Kourtney Kardashian recently upgraded the design with a fruity twist perfect for spring, and Jennifer Lopez chose a rosy chrome color palette for her version. \

Now, Kerry Washington has jumped on the trend with her own gilded take on the look. The actor posted a photo carousel showing off her luxurious golden tips on March 19 ahead of the 31st Annual Producers Guild of America Awards. 

With the help of her nail artist Kim Troung, Washington’s fingers gleamed loudly and proudly. Troung revealed that the Little Fires Everywhere star‘s tips were manually dipped in gold to complement her jaw-dropping Sergio Hudson peach gown and glistening Chopard jewels. The spruced-up French tips are short and oval-shaped, practical choices that make this stunning style worthy of emulating at your next nail appointment. This gilded look does have us wondering, though — can we try this at home? Just how long does it take for gold chrome tips to dry? I’m sure it’s worth the wait!
