Thats why weve always been fans of a great accent nail moment.

Ahead, eight accent nail ideas were saving for our next trip to the salon.

They take an otherwise barely there manicure and turn it into a true work of art.

Flower Power

Welcome the warmer weather with aspring-inspiredaccent nail look.

Start with two complementaryspring colors, like this tangerine orange and soft baby pink as an accent color.

Paint two accent nails before using a dotting tool to create a couple flowers on each.

Its surprisingly easy and the perfect way to usher in the new season.

Outlines

Use outlines and negative space to create the ultimate eye-catching dissonant manicure.

Finally, use that same bold color to completely paint one accent nail.

Evil Eye Spy

Think you cant pull off a minimalistaccent nail design?

We cant stop thinking about this understated milky mani and subtle evil eye accent.

It gives your classic French mani a little bit ofva-va-voom.

Modern Art

Unleash your inner artist with a paint stroke-inspired accent nail.

And dont worry about being too precious with your accent nail design; the streakier, the better.
