You Need To Try These 15 Celebrity Inspired Manicures

I treat painted nails like an accessory to any outfit. If my manicure isn’t done, then the look is ruined, no questions asked. So, you can imagine how often I’m on Pinterest searching “nail ideas.” Which results in me scrolling through images for forty minutes until I find three different ideas that I blend into one. 

However, I am a complete sucker for celebrity influence. If I see Selena Gomez with a new manicure, you know I’m pinning it to my Pinterest board. You’ll feel the same about these 15 nail ideas for your next nail appointment inspired by our favorite celebrities.

Didn’t you hear? Neutral is the new black; so if you’re tired of keeping up with the nail trends and the colors of the season, try a neutral. Even if that’s just a simple clear coat with an almond-shaped nail like Jasmine Tookes’s—a look that’s her go-to.
