As we know, cow print has been all the rage. Certainly we have seen some creative cow prints in nail art from cartoon-like colorful patches to realistic brown cowhides. We aren’t leaving our adored cow prints behind, but animal print as a whole are quickly emerging. That's right, not only cheetah and cow print, but zebra is back baby! It feels like the 2000s again. No worries though, the animal prints that are trending look natural, not cheesy. Go for a classic french with a twist: giraffe printed tips. A neutral colored zebra print can also be traded out for pretty pastels like lavender and plum or matcha green and forest green.

Stemming from the different-color-per-nail trend, we are seeing an array of colors in different designs fit onto one hand. The beauty in nail art is the ability to be creative and express yourself. With spring and summer quickly approaching and bold colors coming soon, nail art that features a whole color palette is the way to go. Trending right now is a french, but replacing the classic white tip for colored tip. We can elevate this look by adding a base color as well. Picture a cherry red base with a pale pink tip. Another eccentric nail look features colors split in half vertically down the nail. There are so many ways to add vibrance to your fingertips. Top off your colorful nails by loading up on chunky resin rings.
