    Demi Moore will forever be a walking mood board. On November 10, the actress was seen arriving at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in New York City. Dressed in a white suit and a gorgeous blue button-up underneath, Moore was the epitome of a chic woman on the go. I don’t know if it was the adorable puppy that she was carrying, but my eyes immediately went to her hands, which were decorated with the most seasonally appropriate manicure.

    ​Moore’s nails were cut and filed into a medium-length coffin shape and painted a gorgeous deep cherry red, arguably the most trendy nail shade of the season. A glossy top coat added a healthy-looking shine, and of course, her puppy was the finishing (and most adorable) touch.

    Red nails have been the it-manicure of the season, a winter trend that has held strong for the last two years. Numerous other celebrities have even joined in on the fun. Back in October, Dua Lipa was spotted in a similar manicure, opting for an oval shape instead of a coffin. Shortly after, Selena Gomez’s manicurist posted her version of the hairstyle, which featured a deep, blackened version of the hue. Even Cameron Diaz has gotten in on the red nail movement.

    This is a trend that I don’t see coming to an end any time soon. That being said, if you want to put your DIY hat on to get a manicure similar to Moore’s, keep reading for an easy shopping list that will get your at-home salon in top shape.
