Nail lovers know that manicures typically fall into one of two categories: minimalist or maximalist. Maximalists have conversation starters like coquette nails and “junk” nails; minimalists have classics like french tips and “rich girl” nails. It’s rare that we come across a trend that fits into both categories – but it does happen. Allow us to introduce you to your new favorite manicure: “denim” nails.

As the name suggests, the trend is inspired by none other than – yep, you guessed it – your favorite pair of jeans. It’s gaining popularity because of how customizable it is – whether you opt for something as simple a light wash or if you want to go all out with rips and fading, trust us – there’s a denim nail look for you.
