Or go quirky pairing two unexpected colours like light brown and deep-teal or by covering the edges with a metallic polish.
The updated French manicure also comes with a change in the shape. Moving away from the classic played-out straight line to almond-shaped nails to give them a softer look. So go and have some fun with the classic French manicure.
Mismatched Nails
Another nail look that is trending this year is mismatched nails with endless colour combinations to choose from. Choose a favourite colour scheme from neons or nudes or even moody hues and paint every nail in a different shade. For a more subtle look, you can have five shaded in the same colour family. Feeling a more colourful vibe? Amp up the fun quotient painting every finger a different colour of the rainbow. This look needs no special nail art expertise or tools. Just bring out all the old nail paints and polish each nail in a different hue and go rogue!
Go Celestial
Adding a playful nod to your horoscopes and the night sky are celestial designs on nails. From constellations and stars to astronomical symbols, this latest lacquer movement is a huge hit on Instagram. Some designs use small foil stars or pearls to give perfect design dimensions while others create a realistic night sky. You can connect the dots scattered on your nails and you will have ten mini constellations shining bright on a sky of your choice. If you are into astrology, then get the zodiac signs replicated on your nails. The minimalistic magic in these subtle patterns is sure to dazzle anyone.
Ring Finger Glamour
Every party needs someone to make it rock and that is exactly what an accent nail does. Paint all the nails in the same shade but go crazy with the ring finger. Give it a completely different solid colour or have nail art on it. Let it be the straw that stirs the drink.
