Mani of the Week: Twinkling Tinsel Nails
Why we love it: Forest green nails are perfect for this time of year -- not too over-the-top, but still celebratory. Topped with free-form splatters of metallic copper and gold glitter, this mani resembles a Christmas tree bedecked with shiny things. Perfect for all of the holiday soirees you'll be attending throughout the month -- and supersimple to do yourself.
To get the look: Use Essie Nail Polish,$8.50-$9, in Off Tropic, Penny Talk and Summit of Style.

Mani of the Week: Shades of Violet
Why we love it: Pantone just announced that Ultraviolet is the new color of the year. Why not ring in 2018 with a mani showcasing multiple shades of the purple hue? This geometric color-blocking is bright, fun and perfectly festive for NYE.
To get the look: Use Zoya Nail Polish,$10, in Abby, Tara, Perrie and Goldie.

Mani of the Week: Off the Wall Nails
Why we love it: The new year is here and after weeks of wearing high-heels and sequins on the holiday party circuit, why not try a more low-key source of inspiration for your next mani? Red, black and white checkered nails mimic the classic Vans motif -- but with a more feminine twist. The look sets a bold, bright, fun tone for the rest of 2018.
To get the look: Use Essie Nail Polish,$8.50, in Jelly Apple, Licorice and Coconut Cove.

Mani of the Week: '80s Rockstar Vibes
Why we love it: Part zig-zag, part lightning bolt and a splash of pop art, this manicure is loud and gorgeous. If you were an '80s or '90s kid, it may also remind you of cartoon rockstar extraordinaire, Jem and the Holograms.
To get the look: Use Orly Nail Lacquer,$6.50-$8.50, in Confetti, Crisp White, and Jet Black.

Mani of the Week: Colorful Cuticles
Why we love it: Who says you need to paint the entire nail to make a statement? We think these negative space nails with tiny flashes of lavender and black are equal parts bold, bad-ass and straight-up lovely.
To get the look: Use Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear,$2.99, in Lacey Lilac and Black Out.
