Chocolate makes everything better, right? The sentiment rings true with French manicures. If you need some quick inspiration at the salon, try swapping out the classic white tips for a chocolate brown hue.

Fresh Cherries

Fruity nail art can transcend the seasons when paired with a classic French design. While orange and watermelon slices are too summery, cherry bunches are a cool way to keep the trend going into fall.
