Even though we can fully appreciate someone having a signature nail-polish shade, we're big advocates for switching things up every once in a while. After all, outside of makeup, your nails are one of the easiest ways to express yourself, and you can change them weekly or even daily if you're feeling so inclined.
As we prepare for the upcoming season, we're shopping for all things winter related, like new skin-care products, festive hair accessories, and fresh nail-polish shades. After all, wearing the same soft-pink color for months on end can start to get old after a while. With so many colors to choose from, we like to leave our mani fate to the stars. Try choosing a new shade based on your zodiac sign.
Find the best winter nail-polish shade for each zodiac sign, from metallic golds to cozy browns, ahead.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Black Nail Polish
Black nail polish is polished, practical, and bold — just like Capricorns. You're not one to chase trends or jump on the latest buzzy nail-polish color. Instead, you prefer sticking with a timeless color that goes with everything, like the Orly Diamond Potential ($10) nail polish.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Icy Blue Nail Polish
A cool-toned, light nail-polish shade best matches the personable and friendly Aquarius. The Olive & June BP ($8) nail polish is an icy white-blue color that will bring you some inner peace.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Soft, Neutral Nail Polish

Gemini (May 21-June 20): Forest-Green Nail Polish
Geminis are lively and funky in the best ways. A dull nail-polish shade would just mute your bright personality. Instead, try a vibrant emerald green like the Essie Off Tropic Nail Polish ($9).

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Deep-Blue Nail Polish

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Gold Nail Polish
No other sign enjoys being the center of attention quite like a Leo. Your winter nail-polish shade has to make a statement. Try the Nailtopia Liquid Gold Bio-Sourced Chip-Free Nail Lacquer ($10).

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Gray Nail Polish
Virgos tend to be a bit more modest and shy, especially in their style. You want a practical nail-polish color that won't clash with your outfit or mood on a daily basis. Your perfect match is a soft, shimmery gray, like the OPI Suzi Talks With Her Hands Infinite Shine ($13).
