Selena Gomez's Moody Wine Tones

For the cooler months, there's nothing quite as chic as a wine-coloured manicure so file this one away for winter. If you're DIY-ing the look at home, we love OPI Iconic Shades In Infinite Shine in Malaga Wine.

Kylie Jenner's Leopard Print French Tips

Combining two of the eighties' favourite trends: leopard print and French nails, Kylie Jenner stepped out with this statement look. Although it's without a doubt a statement look, her leopard print mani is surprisingly wearable thanks to its neutral tones.
