Classic red nails never went out of style, but they’re suddenly everywhere we look. TikTok’s “red nail theory” may have something to do with it, but regardless, the nails are undeniably timeless. Selena Gomez wore them at Cannes, Dua Lipa put a moody twist on the classic mani, and Natalie Portman just cosigned the shade on the red carpet.
On July 10, Portman attended the media screening for her new Apple TV+ series, Lady in the Lake. The show is based on a novel with the same title, following a mother on a journey to uncover the disappearance of a young girl. Portman stars in the show alongside Moses Ingram, and for the event in New York she opted for a sleek red mani to pair with her 3D floral gown.

Red nails can be worn with virtually anything, but Portman's pastel Oscar De La Renta Fall 2024 floral gown was the perfect rosy compliment. It look as though the actress crafted her natural nails into an almond shape and just added a coat of true red polish, with a touch of a glossy top coat. It's official: simple nails have never been more back.
For her glam, the 43-year-old opted for a matching rosy glow with a berry-stained lip. She smoked out a bronzy eyeshadow for a faux cat-eye effect and paired it with wispy lashes. A pink blush accentuated her cheeks, and her romantic bouncy curls were the finishing touch to her soft glam.
