It’s the ombre style, a fade in color from the tip of your nail to the base. You can fade in any color, but for a formal affair we suggest doing a ombre French manicure. It’s super subtle and looks really cool. If you’re the type that must have standout nails, try an edgy shape but stick to the simple French ombre instead of a bold color.

 

For a simple look, try a rounded or square shape. For an edgier look, try almond or coffin shape.
