Nail Art: Serena Williams’s Floral Manicure at Wimbledon

Jul 10, 2012 @ 4:30 pm

Ever the manicure enthusiast, Serena Williams is always serving up fun nail art, and her talons at Wimbledon were no exception! The tennis star, who previously created her own lacquers with OPI, opted for a nude manicure with floral detail on her ring finger. We love how the design looks intricate, but is surprisingly easy to recreate. All you need are two nail polishes with ultra-fine brushes, like Orly’s Instant Artist lacquers ($5 each; orlybeauty.com). Make like Williams and paint a red and white pattern over a tawny base, or jump on the neon trend with high-impact hues like hot pink, or bold yellow. Since the nail art is concentrated on just one finger, you can play with different colors and patterns without having the overall effect appear busy. Now that’s a winning manicure!
