Sometimes the most gorgeous nail designs are the most simple. We're in love with this fresh, minimalist manicure created by Paintbox Nails for our Beauty Director, Dawn Davis. For the classic woman who wants a clean and elegant design, these white nails pair perfectly with any outfit, and its rose gold accents look gorgeous nestled up against your morning coffee cup. Swoon.

Mani of the Week: Colorful Nails

Remember how much you loved art class as a kid? Just because we're all grown up doesn't mean we have to put our paintbrushes away -- especially not for this geometric nail art using our childhood favorites: primary colors.

These colorful nails were created by Sally Hansen using Sally Hansen Miracle Gel in Red Eye, Tidal Wave and Gigabryte. You may not be able to hang this nail art on your fridge, but wearing this cheery pop of color on your digits is so much better.

Mani of the Week: Geometric Nail Art
Created by: @palemoonseattle

We're having serious nail envy over this chic nail design by palemoonseattle. To create this gorgeous manicure, she used Smith & Cult Nailed Lacquer in Regret the Moon, No Poem and Filth Noir. These geometric nails use lines and negative space to create a design that reminds us of our favorite contemporary art.

No need for threads to make a serious fashion statement -- all you need is this white-hot manicure.

Nail art is one of those photogenic beauty trends that we could look at all day long. Somehow, scrolling through photos of nail art designs whipped up by nail art icons like Deborah Lippmann, Jin Soon and Paintbox is simply addictive — whether we plan to execute the nail design ideas or not.

That's why we're bringing you our #ManicureMonday series — where we show you the simple nail art, endless nail design ideas and other ridiculously pretty nails that we're finding and loving.
