Mani of the Week: A Case of Wanderlust
Created by: @tinybrushes

Why we love it: If you've got that eternal travel bug, why not show it off with a unique globe manicure. Pastel blue ocean adorns fingertips and is topped with colorful countries and an immaculate grid. It's truly one of the prettiest ways to flaunt your wanderlust.

To get the look: Use Orly Nail Lacquer, $9.50, in Once in a Blue Moon, Artificial Sweetener, Sands of Time, Jealous Much and Mirror Mirror.

Created by: @nail_unistella

Why we love it: Delicate, feminine hues swirl together to create this dreamy mani. The soft fusion of coral, pink and lilac mimics watercolor strokes with your nails as the canvas. Paint each nail slightly different than the next for this glossy, ethereal, sunset-themed masterpiece.

To get the look: Use Essie Gel Couture, $11.50, in Dress Call, On the List, Couture Curator and Signature Smile.

Mani of the Week: Shifting Polka Dots
Created by: @stephstonenails

Why we love it: Who doesn't love a classic black and white manicure? Add to it some pretty polka dots, each with a unique placement on each nail. Look closely and you'll see that the inky hue has hints of blue — making for a two-tone stunner that is easy to recreate.

To get the look: Use Essie Nail Polish, $9, in After School Boy Blazer and Blanc.

Mani of the Week: Magnificent Metals

Why we love it: 2019 is here and let's start it with a bang. This bold mix of metallics is a fresh deviation from the holiday manicures we've been seeing since October. Vibrant purple, blue, magenta and gold add some lovely sparkle to your tips and make for a fun, low-key mani to start off the new year.

To get the look: Use ILNP Holographic Nail Polish, $10, in High Voltage, Unfazed, Rush Hour and Sparks May Fly.

Mani of the Week: Grinchy Glitter
Created by: @nailsbyharlig

Why we love it: If you're still looking for a super simple holiday manicure, look no further than multicolor glitter. This vibrant mix is from China Glaze's Grinch collection and contains all the tinsel-y tones you need for instant flare. Top your tips with the red, green, blue, gold and silver glitter concoction for one mean mani that is sure to please.

To get the look: Use China Glaze Nail Lacquer, $7.50, in Resting Grinch Face.

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.
