Mani of the Week: Native American Textiles
Why we love it: With the polishes hailing from OPI's Peru collection, this bold graphic design is reminiscent of Inca textiles, thanks to the use of pretty pastels and deep, vampy shades with a lot of contrast. The designs are crisp, clean and full of intricate details.
To get the look: Use OPI Infinite Shine, $8.99, in Machu Peach-U, My Solar Clock Is Ticking, Alpaca My Bags, Yes My Condor Can-Do! and Don't Toot My Flute.

Mani of the Week: Inspired By "Pretty Woman"
Why we love it: Negative space manicures are definitely having a moment right now and we're enamored with this peekaboo design by Bettina Goldstein. A beautiful burnt sienna hue hugs the curves of the nail, studded with miniature white dots. The look is inspired by the classic polka dot dress in one of our favorite rom-coms, "Pretty Woman." We can't decide if we like the movie or the mani more.
To get the look: Use Essie Nail Polish, $9, in Very Structured, Blanc and Sheer Fantasy.

Mani of the Week: Couture-Inspired Creations
Why we love it: Make the transition to fall with this elegant Givenchy-inspired creation. A neutral, cream base sets the stage for bold chevrons and sunbursts in hues reminiscent of the changing leaves. Pops of black and shimmering champagne really highlight the intricate details.
To get the look: Use OPI Nail Lacquer, $10.50, in Sun, Sea and Sand In My Pants, I Love You Just Be-Cusco, My Vampire Is Buff, Black Onyx and Glow the Extra Mile.

Mani of the Week: Bee-utiful Bees
Why we love it: Hand-painted nail art creates some of the most time-consuming yet impressive manicures and this one is no exception. Featherlight brush strokes in black, blue and yellow form an accurate likeness of the tiny creatures. The pretty, muted shades from the Essie Fall 2018 collection help usher in the upcoming change of seasons.
To get the look: Use China Glaze Nail Lacquer, $7.29 in You Don't Know Jacket, Mustard the Courage and Essie Nail Polish, $9, in Licorice.

Mani of the Week: Punchy Pink Waves
Why we love it: Summer officially ends on September 22. For the rest of the month, we're dying to rock all the bright, summery shades before fall's vampy hues start to appear. A great way to combine several bright shades into one manicure is with a two-toned wave design. Add a third color with a contrasting stripe for extra impact.
To get the look: Use Deco Miami Nail Lacquer, $8, in Don't Call Me Baby Girl, Miley What's Good and Tequila Sunrise.
