When it comes to trending nail art, there truly are two completely different ends of the spectrum at the moment. The first being the manicure minimalists, who much prefer understated sheer pink hues like Margot Robbie or milky white sets à la Kourtney Kardashian .
As for the “more is more” nail lovers of the world? It’s clear that playful patterns as recently worn by Hailey Bieber , vibrant color, and fruit-filled manicures (including cherries , strawberries , watermelon , and more) are a major green flag for the summer months and beyond.
The understated nail art design that also seems to be popping up happens to be cow print. While Ariana Grande and Kendall Jenner have been spotted with the cow-inspired nails back in 2019, the country-esque design is going through a revival thanks to the rising coastal cowgirl aesthetic, along with Robbie’s headline-making Cowgirl Barbie look featured in the upcoming Barbie film .
Whether or not you claim the TikTok-approved coastal cowgirl aesthetic as your own — cow print nail art is an adorable manicure that has basically become a neutral at this point.
