Nails are getting the glitz treatment! Alexa Chung added red ladybug gemstone details to her nude manicure, while Zooey Deschanel went for a 3D rhinestone-covered bow. Want to try the look? Pick up some nail gems (look for plastic jewels with a flat back, as they’re easier to apply). Paint on your nail color, and once it is slightly sticky, press on the gem. Be sure to let your nails dry a little before applying the jewel, as lacquer fresh from the bottle will cause the accent to slide around. Finish by layering on a generous coat of clear polish to secure the sparkle and you’ve got yourself a statement nail, for sure.
